WHITE SOX SIGN Grandal 4/$73, Palka DFAd
Apologies if it's already been posted but.... Oh baby do I love some pitch framing. The one at 1:32 mark might be my favorite. So fucking smooth.

**Movies that we Watch** Thread
I have heard amazing things about Knives Out. I think we're going to see it this week maybe. Also heard the new Mister Rogers movie was great too.

STAR WARS Everything
I really liked Episode 3. And god damnit, the amount of emotion you could sense from a faceless character when Mando went to grab the throttle and the head of it was still off from when baby Yoda tried to eat it. I felt that.

Zack Wheeler Thread
That's a fair concern

Zack Wheeler Thread
I don't have any issues with them going after Bumgarner. Even though it feels like he's 35 years old, he's somehow only 30.

As long as you're OK with the funky design, there is really no reason not to get the Tesla Cybertruck unless you're just that uncomfortable with having to charge a vehicle still.

Abreu Signs 3/$50M Extension
I don't know, but some random on Twitter (I know) was in my mentions with screenshots of someone who supposedly has info on the Sox having extended Puig an offer already. So maybe the timing of this is to make Puig accept the offer? And you can bet if the Sox actually sign Puig or offered him a contract that they have already talked to Abreu about him and if he would be a good fit.

Grandal - Early Off-Season Speculation
Best case scenario just happened my friends. This was brilliant. ??

**2019 "I hate my Fantasy Team" Fantasy Football thread**
There is a guy in my league who is now 0-11. Last week he lost on a last second 3 yard pass that gave the other guy 1.5 points. He lost by 0.5. This week he was up by 1 point going in to tonight with Melvin Gordon and Damien Williams. The other guy had Badgley. He lost by 0.4 points. Melvin Gordon needed 1 more rushing yard. Or 1 more reception, one that was targeted to him on that final drive when River's let the ball slip out of his hand randomly that was reviewed as a fumble. This poor guy. First time ever playing season-long fantasy sports and he's 0-11 with 2 ridiculous back to back losses.

I definitely did not recognize that droid or that yellow guy from the old movies. And that no disintegrations line. Pretty cool.

Sunday Notes: Hahn asked for Devers in Sale trade (and updates on TJ guys)
I had heard it as the Sox wanted Devers, the Red Sox countered with Moncada. Keith Law actually had Devers more highly regarded at the time. From what I understand it was either one or the other, never both.

NFL Thread 2019-2020
The best defense is a Trubisky offense, I've always said that. ? Rams win. ?

STAR WARS Everything
Because it didn't really progress the story at all. 30 minutes for us to find out that Mando has found out Baby Yoda has force powers. Unless I'm forgetting something, I don't think anything else pushed the story along. I'm not saying it was bad, I'm just saying with only 3 hours left this season, I expected more of the story to unfold.

STAR WARS Everything
With the episode schedule, and the 2nd to last episode coming out on a Wednesday, the day before the new movie comes out, I have to imagine the show will tie in to The Rise Of Skywalker. Maybe eventually getting to how the Emperor comes back to life.

STAR WARS Everything
I found episode 2 to be boring. With only 8 episodes this season, and apparently only 30 minutes long, they really need to pick it up. They are definitely going for the Star Wars Wild West theme here, which I'm good with, but I swear I thought I heard him actually cock his blaster.

That's awesome man.

Totally.

Trade Candidates: Hitters
If they are all quality hitters, I absolutely don't care. Of course I would *prefer* a lefty, but it's not going to make me cross a meaningful upgrade off my list.

STAR WARS Everything
If I could have gotten a Tesla for free, I would have. That being said, the internet came through with perfect quality rips of the show.

STAR WARS Everything
The Mandalorian is now out. I'm trying to figure out a way to watch it, other than just waiting for some sketchy website to upload a ripped copy online.

Trade Candidates: Hitters
I struggled to see why we should skip out on a very good hitter because of his handedness. He plays RF, albeit not very good. But then again, neither does Castellanos and people seem to like him enough.

Rick Hahn's Resume as GM
Great, that doesn't change my point even one iota. Now if I had said that Hahn would be the best GM in baseball if he had a larger payroll to deal with, then sure, what you said would be considered a counter-point.
-
Trade Candidates: Hitters
I like the idea of getting Trey Mancini for the Orioles. Hunter Renfroe from the Padres since he's got a big time bat, and is apparently a good defensive RF with a big arm.

Rick Hahn's Resume as GM
Yes, and I think he would thrive under an owner committed to winning with every dollar he can reasonably spend.
