To the fans, yeah, JR ain't loyal. To players — if he thinks the deal isn't back breaking — he painfully is: Leury, Jay Williams (one of the biggest favors in NBA history), loaning Frank money, Pippen's final year (ironically enough). Then he gives them jobs once they're retired. Frank, Ozzie, Thome, Getz, TLR (not a player, but we all know this one), Paxson, Kenny, Beckham, Robin. If JR can get someone on what he views as a good deal, he's destructively loyal and will keep it in the family.

Tex, what is the point you're trying to make? Loria blows chunks because he's a backstabbing snake that actually did the awful thing you keep wishing upon Sox fans. Reinsdorf sucks because he has to try and "win" every contract/business deal and IS loyal to a fault.

Loria speaks ...

Yes? It wasn't exactly a secret that Mark's dogs were/are important to him - he didn't live in Miami-Dade county because of a ban on them - so to be traded one year into a deal is a dick move. Especially because that's a big chunk of the dog's life. In the end, that meant Buehrle's family had to live away from him since they, you know, wanted to keep their family dogs.

I mean, sure it's a business, but Loria fucked him over on a personal level.

Well f*** me, who needs Jake Burger or Lenyn Sosa when we have Adam Haseley? By the way, here's a composite draft - Haseley projected at 7, 8, and 9. Burger? 15, 17 and 24. Draft projections mean f*** all 6 years later, especially compared to LatAm signings.

Open up a new table Go to MLB Pipeline Select Top 100 prospects Ctrl + F "tigers" Scroll past Max Clark since he was just drafted. Will they include Colt Keith?

Yes but I don't know the specifics.

My dude is in pain. Please give him a pitching staff.

It's a few things with Kelley As others have said, he was a big risk/big reward guy. He had 12 innings his senior year of baseball - that was it. High school pitcher drafted in the COVID year and post-MiLB reconstruction, so he went straight to affiliate ball. That's stiff competition after a shortened senior season and no "rookie" season. After a rough start and an injury, he rehabbed for 2.2 innings in rookie ball and then went straight back to Kannapolis. Now, they've been using him as a piggy back reliever - so they might not be writing him off entirely as a starter, but trying to build up his innings and confidence in a different way. All of that is a long way of saying that he's sad a lot of stumbling blocks, but he's still only 21-years-old.

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh

It helps that they're sneakily assembling fun lineups vs. the early season horror shows the Barons and Knights were running out.

Arrogance to show that he's smarter than everyone else. And money.

I mean if this is all of sports, you have to include places that have hazing, Kyrie Irving's constant destructive tendencies, the A's, LIV and Saudi sports washing, the Browns deciding sexual assault is worth commiting hundreds of millions to, etc. But a sports personality who is only listened to because his brother is a Hall of Famers went full hyperbole, which only serves to lessen the Sox dysfunction and malfeasance because Hahn or Kenny could see that and go "really?"

My dad was bemoaning Colson's batting average to me. I had to explain that his OBP is enough to be happy about in such a small sample size.

Yimi Garcia has a negative WAR this season, Blue Jays have a team option next year. Jarlín García is on the Pirates 60-day IL. They have a team option. Maikel Garcia is a young Royals player so Pedro definitely wants to trade Colson for him.

Well damn

The A's are a wildcard because they just don't care. I've got no idea what the Royals situation is. Sox are third for dibs.

Here's what a Redditor said:

I'mma just keep memein'

Next pitcher to be drafted from Fullerton Union High School is gonna feel the pressure.

I don't remember Eloy, Moncada or Robert being feared to the point that teams pitched around them in the minors. What is this insanity?

Oh, right after bmags' post, Lee got the team's second hit.
