Sorry but I'm a little pessimistic....I know you wouldn't understand that.

The thought of him not being traded makes me a little ill to be honest.

I hear you....my wife put on a movie I had never seen to celebrate St Pat's....The Commitments. Movie break away from Soxtalk = miss a little, miss alot.

Then you have to trade him....which I am 200% in favor of.

I know it's early but back to the old question....if they don't trade Kimbrel, do they have him close?

Oh it definitely needed to be improved although bullpens are often a crapshoot

Babe the pitcher or Babe the hitter?

It seems to me that RH thinks that a great bullpen leads to success in the postseason....does this accomplish that? I don't know. Chuck and Ozzie praised this team for putting together probably the best bullpen in baseball last season....I hope they are right this year.

They should limit Dallas' simulated innings so he's ready to be limited real innings during the season.

Wow what a scoop....that guy never fails to disappoint.

It's this old man's fault...I'm not up on the lingo...I'll try to do better.

Jack, this is a family friendly website.

Fun fact...He actually still uses a Wii in his office.

Making the playoffs every year is fun....losing in the 1st round and looking bad and totally outmatched is not fun. They have to do something but I do prefer they do it through free agency and not by mortgaging the future by trading Vaughn....especially if it would be for a pitcher on the last year of their contract. If they can trade Kimbrel for that fine or for a package that they can flip to get it also fine.

Why pay for the cow when you can get another cow for free by giving away some of your calves, but be careful none of them are bulls....never mind you don't get milk from bulls.....I'll have to circle back to this later.

Oops, forgot about universal DH....I can see it more now but glad it's not the team I root for.

One of those 1 day contracts is understandable to retire as a Cardinal, but anything else seems odd.

Are qualifying offers still a thing going forward after this latest deal?

Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.....and Craig Kimbrel is still a member of the Chicago White Sox.

This flurry of activity is incredible

I would love to be placated in that way....asap.

I always thought the Cubbies would bring back Rizzo to placate the fan base...he's awfully popular there.

Yep I think my school has to win their tournament to get in or it's on to the NIT.
