I agree, though they would still be practicing I guess. But if I were a team I would want to play the games early and often.

I guess the team with the best record gets a bye? And then they play the team with the lowest record that wins the first round (Wild Card Series?)?

There is a meeting today, correct?

Play Castellanos in RF, Burger at 2B, Vaughn DH. Fuck defense and left handed bats apparently.

Random

Agreed. The Eloy injury pushed a need for him to be in the outfield with the position-less Yermin at DH.

I'm actually ok with them going for defense with Simmons or Iglesias at 2B in the 9-spot if it means they signed Conforto as well. If the only 3 moves after the lockout (not counting minor league depth signings) are trading Kimbrel and clearing that whole salary, signing Conforto, and signing Simmons/Iglesias to play 2nd and bat 9th, I would be completely ok with that. Hold on to the prospects and young MLB players (Crochet, Vaughn, Sheets, etc) and just spend.

In Spring Training before the Eloy injury, I believe there were rumors that Vaughn was going to make the Opening Day roster.

Who is the other dumpee?

That may be true currently, but he’s also the best choice for 3B.

Yeah, I wouldn't assume this.

More trade chips.

Same.

I think trading Kimbrel clears another $16 mill.

If it means we signed a real RF, same.

Wow this takes me back my late teens/early 20s leaving my gf’s parents’ house in the middle of the night and listening to him on the score. Also driving to work at 3/4am.

I think it just means compare 2019 and 2021, not comparing 2019 through 2021.

Who the hell knows at this point.

Beer league softball lineup.

Do we know for sure they don't have the funds to sign Prieto as well?

Idk if you use a streaming service or not, but YouTube TV offered premium channels for $1 for 2 months at the end of November. Since I was going to wait for Dexter to be finished and add it for a month anyway, I jumped on that deal. That has led me to watching Yellowjackets and now Your Honor (with Bryan Cranston) currently.

I thought so too. But I guess that is the problem with a mini-series. Maybe if they signed on for more seasons up front, the story could have been fleshed out more.

Probably currently being rejected by the owners.

Is there anywhere to watch these games? I don't need the volume or to know what anyone is saying. Just to have something different than re-watching the same shows I've already seen would be nice while working from home.

It may even be longer. I think the first episode was late spring during high school baseball and girls soccer season? And the last episode they talked about how it would be homecoming?
