Right, you said you surprised he was named a finalist. I should have said Abreu is not without the question mark, because I was asking why were surprised he was a finalist.

He's not?

Yes

So we know that Hinch destroyed the TV twice with a baseball bat, but did he ever tell Lunhow or was Lunhow "unaware" the whole thing was going on?

Per a conversation with my brother - where he said every member of the 2017 Astros should be suspended a year minimum (10 years for managers), including rookies who only had a cup of coffee - I want to know peoples' answer to another question: What would you do if you were LaRussa at any point during the steroid era? The man basically got into the Hall of Fame off of it. Also, yes, my brother has completely reasonable takes.

"hack" = Lunhow used the same password

Not sure if this is a terrible pun or an awful typo.

Go on.

Truly, the Lakers had an awful offseason if you remove the AD trade.

Really wish Steve just responded with a photo of Keuchel.

This thread is sure to be devoid of hot takes.

Political posts have been removed. Note, for future reference, instead of exacerbating the issue, please use the report function.

fixed.

However, Abreu's chew can stay.

I forgot that that was a thing. Man, the writers really should have saved that storyline for 2020.

I mean, I can definitely doubt it since they've fired him before.

Hold up.

I'm not focusing on this woman, I'm focusing specifically on Bauer's pattern of behavior. Maybe I expect too much from someone receiving millions of dollars from a professional organization. All of this being said, I'd still sign him.

Less offended and more "expect a professional pitcher to not be a complete dumbass on Twitter." I've had friends and coworkers get rape and death threats simply for having bylines at major publications. If someone says something to Bauer on twitter, then he decides to "flex his online muscle" and ultimately not sign with their team (which would be completely independent of the twitter incident), Twitter trolls would 100% harass the person to no end. Is it fucking stupid? Yes. Should they just not engage with someone like Bauer? Yes. Should Bauer realize he's a professional athlete and be the bigger person? Yes.

What muscle is she flexing? Her 150 followers? If Abreu got pissed off about Ron we'd all find it incredibly immature and beneath Jose.

It's a woman with less than 200 followers. It's like Kevin Durant and his burner accounts. Trevor Bauer is being juvenile at best here.

Bochy being open to the job shoots him up to #1 on the list immediately.

Hinch is out

Hold up. What?
