Of course not but he has been trending in the right direction. In the past couple of games he almost hit two or three out. He’s still taking walks and has been collecting some hits. I think he’s right around the corner and today would be a great day for him to take the next step.

A rare occasion for us to agree.

We still have more resources for upcoming years where Bonemer being sent out we’d be covered still.

We would be getting the best closer in baseball and San Diego’s best starting pitcher. With Miller, you could also convert him into the rotation for the next three years. Imagine our bullpen with a resurgent Hicks and Taylor able to move into a setup role. Hicks / Newcomb / Taylor / Miller is a beast. The rotation starts to take shape with Burke / King / Martin as a respectful top three.

If the dude would use a TOOL song I would really be all in on getting him. 😆🌀

You must be confused - or I am. Drew Thorpe was drafted in what… 2020 or something?

And because the national media outlets know they will get the most views ( advertising buyers ) when they drum up interest from the biggest markets.

Hairball trade idea: Sox Receive: Mason Miller Michael King Padres Get: Caleb Bonemer Tanner McDougal Drew Thrope Kyle Lodise David Sandlin Who would say no?

I also wonder if the team has been floating Thorpe in trades. My guess is there are multiple reasons we have been seeing an influx of White Sox articles written about him lately.

Yea, the big media networks say the Yankees are going to get every prime deadline target, including Goodman. Wonder why that is… 🤔

Assuming the reports of us being in on Miller talks are true… what starting pitching does the Padres have that we could also potentially target? Miller plus SP for a crazy haul 😬

Alexander gave up 1 run between June 1st and mid July. His last two appearances were against the Braves and he gave up 3 ER in 1.1 IP across two games. Would be nice to hang some on him to start the game but I won’t be shocked either way.

Hope the best for the kid but it’s not like we traded the next coming of Babe Ruth. This one won’t haunt us.

So much of this is a narrative that was blown out of proportion by the media, contradicts police reports, and includes some of the women injuring themselves as a part of setting him up. It seems like you’re only interested in one side of the events - a side that has not only been proven in court but also involved successful counter suits. Again - this is not true. His reputation is being a great teammate. The guy put himself in a really dumb spot on all of this is on his own shoulders. If anyone thinks he wouldn’t have been a frontline starter, the Dodgers had 50 million dollars that spoke differently. His performance in a few different leagues and his pitching knowledge tells me he could be serviceable. The only reasons he hasn’t been given a shot is the PR and liability nightmare that would be involved. Before he steps on the field, the media would have to expose themselves and the league by reporting his story in full which would expose those parties to damage suits. This is just one of those situations where two people have two completely different points of view and we’ll never agree… so there is no point in trying to reason any further. Edit: One final thing… no, I haven’t been accused of sexually abusing four or five women… but I do have an exwife that accused me of that along with other completely false allegations like kidnapping my own son, forcing her to lose weight, controlling her ability to leave the house… all sorts of complete nonsense that was investigated by local police ( without any truth found ), DPFS ( also without any findings ), and yet a liberal California judge in the same court Bauer stood found me to be guilty and handed custody of my son for three years to a completely unstable women that went on to abuse him. The worst thing I ever did in my former marriage was raise my voice to step between her and my son when she was abusing him in front of me. But family law courts don’t tend to believe white men with a beard and tattoos - they seem to believe women that are capable of mobilizing institutions and advocates. After the hearings she went to the media and even though I provided them with the findings of the police and DCFS, they reported her side only. If I had Bauers resources, I could have had remedy with counter suits and appeals but just to cover that much, I had already spend six figures. My life was already ruined, my ability to be a father was already gutted, and I had nothing. I don’t think you understand how biased and manipulative the media and unstable women with motives can be.

Absolutely. I’m firmly of the opinion that he would improve all of the pitchers on a team if he was signed. It would be like having another pitching coach. 😆

On a hung middle middle change that was lofted over the short right field porch in Yankee Stadium. Good for him but I’m still not ready to: Regret the trade Assume we should have traded him for a starter Assume this prevents us from obtaining a starter Assume Gonzo is a better option than Meidroth Assume Gonzalez will have more trade value than Chase will when it’s time for Roch to come up Assume Gonzo will be a better mlb player than Prosek IMO we just need to root for the kid and move on.

This game worries me. Need Kay to come out and shove in a shock the world type game.

The potential of bringing in Miller as a closer this year who is transitioned to the rotation for 27 - 30 is beyond intriguing.

Would only make sense if they also got a starting pitcher and a catcher. Which also wouldn’t make sense.

Wonder how many parks that is gone in.

Mune is heating up.

Haven’t seen us get an ass whoopin for a while. I do not like it.

Death by a thousand swings.

Man - Schultz is rough to see the promise. Homie is crushing my soul. Where’s his stuff?

Man, Noah is getting rocked. I haven’t seen him have so much hard contact. Maybe he’s going out there today sacrificing some pinpoint trying to limit free passes.
