    I watched Clayton Kershaw face Luis Robert on a side field at Camelback about 5 years ago.  Getz was sitting next to me on the park district style bleachers.  Instead of watching he was playing Candy Crush on his phone. 

    I know how that feels. I, too, try to avoid looking directly into Clayton's dreamy eyes.

    I wonder if the wording "internal interviews" is an accurate description of what has or will take place. For example, these internal "interviews" might only include JR , others in the ownership group, trusted friends,and his own family members.   It seems counterintuitive that an internal interview would include Rick Hahn in order to determine his plight.

    Every team creates a budget for player contracts. You can argue that JR is cheap but I suggest that is not even a proper assertion to make.  Aside from that, there are many examples of Hahn not using the budget for player contracts wisely. For example, Sox fans here (including myself) wanted the Sox to sign Cody Bellinger when he was a free agent.  We know what happened. Cubs signed Cody for one year at $17.5 Million with an option for a second year.  Meanwhile, Hahn signed Bennintendi to a 5 year $75 Million dollar deal. Now we get to watch Bellinger help the Cubs try to gain a play-off spot  Just great..,And then there was the precipitous, unnecessary  trade of Jake Burger, one of the moist popular players on the team.

    Jake Burger definitely makes me moist.
