Quin

Ok, but he and TLR were horrible at running the D-Backs

Team that "can't hit" had the most home runs in the majors. NYY and LAD had the highest WRC+ in baseball. That's a spooky term to Greg, so here's a rundown: I'll let you guys guess what team had a 75 WRC+, worst in the majors.

Listening to Will Perdue on CHGO, I kinda agree: The Bulls might not be bad enough to keep their first rounder. That doesn't mean good. Just that they don't feel tank-y enough.

I think I'm getting more pissed off seeing Tommy Edman tear up this postseason than I am Kopech. Chris Getz is such a fucking awful GM.

The minority shares!

If I'm not mistaken, Cubs would gain the ability to block any expansion team.

You're such a bootlicker that King George could have taxed you 100% for tea and you'd tell fellow colonists "at least we have tea!"

To really dump my raw thoughts: It'd be so fucking Reinsdorfian to f*** over fans in a city that has given him everything: He paid a pittance for the Sox and Bulls and got 7 rings, a stadium, and 2 billion dollar franchises. In return he broke up a the 90s Bulls and has strung along two fanbases cause he doesn't want to invest and cause computers are hard. And all because Hawk had to have the worst single fucking season by a GM in the history of baseball when you consider the ramifications, fans have to deal with Reinsdorf blowing up the latest rebuild by hiring TLR, then hiring Getz on TLR's recommendation and now, if they sell to Stewart, it'll surely be with TLR's blessing. f*** Jerry and f*** TLR.

It can be good: The Dodgers are a group-owned organization and they drastically turned things around post-McCourts. It's just that Dave Stewart would be catastrophic.

Stewart's involvement has me wary.

The soil prevents antenna expansion.

@Bob Sacamano I must have accidentally quoted you. I did not mean to imply that Grimace was out hear injuring Dodgers players. Glasnow had it coming.

@southsider2k5

He won't rest until Hagen Smith is the highest paid player.

Just an example: This was before he had his team intentionally throw at a guy, resulting in a brawl where he got suspended 10 games. For more context: He swapped his starter for an opener to throw at a guy. He also got ejected from the same game twice.

No, but he's a fucking crazy person.

Phil Nevin is a wild candidate. I'll give them grace and assume it's due diligence.

If they don't trade Sale, they probably don't trade Quintana or Eaton. The scope gets wider than just Moncada.

Also, good moment to point out that one of Getz's first moves was DFA'ing Honeywell, who turned in a good year for the Dodgers (though he way overperformed his advanced metrics) and is pitching in the postseason for them.

15 players from the MLB top 100 have played for the Sox.

Sale was traded after the 2016 season and it was pretty consistently Benintendi #1 and Moncada #2 (with an occasional swap) BA: Beni #1, Yoan #2, Devers #18, Kopech #32 Fangraphs: Yoan #1, Beni #2, Kopech #21, Devers #22 MLB: Beni #1, Yoan #2, Kopech #16, Devers #17 BP: Beni #3, Yoan #5, Devers #13, Kopech #36 Baseball Cube: Beni #1, Yoan #2, Devers #18, Kopech #32 Keith Law's are paywalled to this day, but this kind of illustrates the point. Here's Dombrowski explaining what went down. The Sox traded for premium talent. They are just a shitty, shitty organization.

Since I'm out of market and not affected: Reinsdorf is tanking for the #1 pick in the broadcast producer draft.

I'm going to keep hammering this drum because we've Dombrowski has come out and said what it was. Hahn could get Moncada or Benintendi (the #2 and the #1 prospects) Then Kopech got added to the deal. Devers was asked about as the third piece, but it was too high of an ask, so it was Basabe and Diaz. So you're really between Devers and Kopech. Unless you really wanted Benintendi, I guess?

Ok, so if I get this right: Cuban born infielders that the Red Sox sign and trade to the White Sox* can record bops. The difference? Desastre Personal is a despondent love song (lyric wise). OMG is an aspirational. OMG is fueling the f*** out of the Mets. *Sox had Iglesias but traded him for Avi in the Peavy trade.

Tea party TD celebration is elite.
