Maybe he could meet some of Esteban Loaiza’s friends and undertake a new “career path” this winter.

Chill.

We drafted this Collins kid who has shown amazing prowess according to all available reports. /green

He said that Felix is likely to opt to remain retired.

Yes.

“It isn’t under these conditions, ideally, that we are having this discussion, which of course, we would have liked to occur a bit later in the year, however, we stand here today knowing that, ideally our window has not only been declared as open, but from an operational point of view we would, having our druthers, mean that a preview to our fans of sustained success can be recognized. When we set out on this path, ideally we were looking not for a single successful season, defined obviously by a World Series Championship, but rather, multiple championships and we still feel we are along that path when reading the tea leaves. We want to acknowledge the work this club did, acknowledge Tony and his… lead…. His… grea… his great leadership that Jerry is certainly… proud of… and we want to acknowledge the great support of all our amazing fans… while still most importantly acknowledging that we have more work to do. Now, we look towards the ultimate goal of bringing a Championship to our great fans and we will continue moving on towards, ideally, reaching that goal in 2022, while still, making moves that set us up for also sustained success, the fruits of which, we are beginning to taste, which while we are pleased have been somewhat seen with the results on the field we all saw, the way the season ended did leave a bad taste in our mouth, and ideally we will see this adversity with a response which, ideally acts as motivation to return to the post season in short order while also, ideally, presenting itself with our desired goal. Until then our work is unfinished and ideally we sit here today better positioned to continue forward along the successful path we entered in upon a short time ago.”

Your request is hereby approved. The Cubs have to get Australia though and the Indians, get India.

Just on the basis of “Popeye” I hope he ends up being a Hall of Famer.

I personally hope that however the CBA shakes out we end up signing Prieto.

Yep - fuck this trade.

They’re hoping to trade him obviously but there’s most certainly no foundation in place. IMO they should just buy out and cut bait.

They probably love him enough to rotate him in at DH / 1B / RF

Uh… no.

Big Country love.

This is not how baseball works.

Perfect summary aside from your omission of terms such as “ideally”, “tea leaves”, and “druthers”. ?

Yes, yes you will.

The bad trade just keeps on being bad.

I guess that’s fair
