  1. Lol, enjoyed that Dr. Evil GM commercial.
  2. How does a player not understand they can't do that?
  3. What would it actually cost clubs to pay the minor leaguers in ST? I mean, they're making next to nothing already.
  4. I'd be interested to see it more on a year-to-year basis, particularly the last 10 years. A lot of franchises got a massive boost from MLBAM, new stadiums, and new TV deals. I don't see additional revenue streams providing that kind of gain in the near future. With regards to what the owners actually put in their pockets, it's possible that almost the entire gain comes from increases in franchise valuations as opposed to underlying fundamentals and actual cash flow. Manfred's statement, while perhaps misleading, may not be entirely inaccurate right now. Of course if MLB was to open up the books, it could all be put to rest one way or the other.
  5. OLG has a signup bonus right now where they match deposit funds on new accounts (up to $500), just in case anyone is interested.
  6. I did. McCarthy crapping one out sucks though. You really need all the golfers getting through to have a solid chance at cashing.
  7. Doncic just put up 28 points with seven 3s in the 1st quarter
  8. PG Pascal?
  9. As if students don't have enough to worry about. This is the sort of situation where binding arbitration makes sense.
  10. I think I'm gonna put Kim in for Wise.
  11. A 6th in a future year or a waiver wire swap (Dinger is Ye Be Judged, right?). Either would be fine with me.
  12. Fine with me if it's fine with the commishes. If not, a 6th in another year would be fine too.
  13. Can someone move Eguy to my minors please? I also won't be using my final pick, so you can make it go poof.
  14. He won't be blacklisted by all teams. Someone (like the Rangers) will almost certainly be willing to run him out there if the price is right. There definitely WILL be teams who will cross him off the list though. This is going to cost him a fortune in future contracts, but he'll still be in the majors and pitching.
  15. I think I saw something about Fantrax being in the final stages of producing a new improved draft app. Hopefully all of those things will be addressed by it (but it wouldn't hurt to let them know they should be).
  16. I'm tentatively looking at Cantlay, Power, Henley, Gooch, McCarthy, and Wise. Definitely subject to change.
  17. Imagine if he replies to it!
  18. I wonder if the players would go back to that structure (ie, ALSO keeping the unlimited aspect of it). I feel like that's a rather important part as well. I suspect they probably wouldn't.
  19. Can someone move Myers to my minors please?
  20. Maybe, but it would be a pretty big gamble as an agreement theoretically could have happened quickly (you know, if idiots weren't in charge of both sides). I would guess most of the guys likely to attempt it would be ones needing to recover from bad injuries.
  21. Apparently I'm cornering the market on SP who's last name starts with "M"
  22. More to the point, there's no guarantee the players wouldn't play some or even most of the season and THEN strike. It would put the owners in a horrible position where they'd likely have to honor and cover all non-player related contracts, including stadium and broadcast ones.
  23. My lineup this week was Cantlay, Bezuidenhout, Hughes, Kuchar, Theegala, and Kodaira. Really need three of those guys to put in some work today (Hughes is off to a nice start). No one is buried at least.
  24. I honestly don't think most of the general public gives a rats ass about it right now, or even know it's happening. They're not going to care who is at fault because ultimately it changes nothing. As for a mediator, if you have someone with experience in brokering supposedly fair resolutions to disputes across all sectors and interests and you aren't willing to let him try because you might have to make concessions, then the problem is probably you. I don't think it's a bad look for the owners at all.
