My post was in response to someone saying Tiedemann would not break camp with the Jays. All I posted was that it was possible.

 

And yes, you making a snide dismissive comment about my post that has since been shown to be correct is what I am pointing out. Be better.

 

Jim how the f*** are you even thinking you were right?

 

Manoah died, Gausman is hurt, Y Rod is delayed, Tiedemann had a healthy spring... if RT doesn't break camp with Toronto then he basically had zero chance and you're dunking on yourself

But when those downgrades started to be made, many of those same posters were fighting against those who saw the obvious flaws. It seems like a shock to some of you but many of us saw stupid move aft

Hey all, I have zero hope until they cut the head off the snake. Shapiro has to go, NOW. New Prez, new GM, new development system.   We are currently the laughing stock of baseball, no one takes our

Longley misrepresented what was actually said by Schneider.

 

 

This is the full quote from Schneider where Tiedemann was mentioned along with many other names. Longley basically only mentioned Tiedemann to write a clickbait hype article making it appear like it's him who's going to break camp.

Here is what I wrote in response to others saying Tiedeman would not break camp with the team:

 

"It is not out of the question that Tiedeman makes the team out of ST"

 

I've never said he would break camp with the team, I've never said he would be in the rotation out of camp, just that he *could" make the team. That still could or could not happen.

 

My sole issue here is Havok responding to my post in a snide / dismissive manner.

I said the exact same thing, that it was possible in that post. Yet your using a tiny fraction of the whole post as some kind of "gotcha" moment.

 

Are you in the media?

Youre an idiot, the entire post taken in context agrees with you.

Explain the following part of your post, the snide / dismissive part:

 

There might be a universe out there that exists where he does, but I don't think it's this one.

I did, in the rest of the post that you chose not to include.

 

Jim, you're always 3 steps behind when you think you're two steps ahead.

Alright, perception different from intent. My apologies.

It didn't look great. He was limping.

 

Hopefully a bone bruise is all

 

Well at least we have another competent fielder to play CF everyday!

 

Maybe a Schneider/Barger platoon in LF?

Yeah. Even before sending him for an xray I think it's safe to expect he wont be in any more ST games.

Probably saves Lukes for a week or two

Getting injured in the last week of spring training is FUN

The ST lineup I've seen seems to be George, Vlad, Bo in that order pretty consistently. That's not going to be regular order, right?

 

Seems so. To be fair, I think Vlad needs Bo's protection more than Bo needs Vlad's protection in the lineup. Bo swings at everything regardless while we want Vlad to get more pitches in the strikenzone.

 

Now the other side is that Bo gets a lot of hits, which is important to have batting before Vlad since his job is to clear the bases.

Just in what happened in today's game, Vlad is on 1st and Bo hits a single. Vlad stops at 2nd. If the order was reversed, Bo is likely standing at 3B.

 

I don't think "protection" has any relevance when compared to game play scenarios.
