Lukes higher OPS than Vlad

Top 4 in both Barrel rate and AvgEV since April 27 The Barger/Varsho effect I guess

Need stalwart veteran Jose Urena to step up and keep them in the take today Sweep or die

Ross was just feigning interest in Sasaki so he could nab Strawsie + human trafficking money

Thanks tips No conclusions or opinions on anybody until they retire. Got it.

Doesn't even have good Stuff numbers!!!

So Roki Sasaki sucks I guess. Wow.

The Blue Jays announced that they have placed second baseman Andrés Giménez on the 10-day injured list with a right quad strain. Infielder Michael Stefanic has had his contract selected from Triple-A to replace Giménez on the active roster. In a corresponding move to open a space on the 40-man, right-handed reliever Dillon Tate was designated for assignment.

J Rod is the better player all around.

They should just trade him to Toronto at this point

Really seems like a bit of both. Chaim Bloom told Devers he was the 3B long term. Breslow made a decision to just not honour that non-contractual term, Then in spring they tell him to put his glove away and just be the DH. Maybe Devers' initial reaction to the Bregman signing being childish was part of that communication happening, like they felt they had to appease him in some way, but it's still pretty short-sighted to not have the guy on board as your backup 3B/1B.

The dude has a Twins message board they are used to this

real talk the AL East blows The Yankees have some elite players but also some desperate plays like Bellinger (sucks) and Goldschimdt (working out so far but he's so old) and a thin rotation + the Williams disaster The Red Sox are frankly a weird team this year, trying to bridge competing with building for the long term, and they have some weak roster components The Rays are not good right now, just one of those down years for a cheap team probably The Orioles having a nightmare season = the reason I still don't 100% hate baseball none of these teams are that scary. Toronto could roll into New York and Boston later this year and sweep and make up a bunch of ground. we just need every single player on the roster to get better immediately. easy

Hopium successful I BELIEVE IN YOUR TEAM, ROSS!!! I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't need your fancy run defferentul math to know the team is full of turds Just watch them play! Like a bunch of Mr Hanky the Christmas Poos running around out there!!!

respect the pump

Ross Atkins hosts a barbeque so the 2024 trade deadline acquisitions can get to know the 2025 trade deadline acquisitions:

Then: Jose Bautista, EE, Josh Donaldson, Stroman going from pick #22 to a 3 win SP, top draft picks and signings like Bo and Vlad working out and becoming elite prospects, a prospect becoming one of the best closers in the game at 20/21, veterans like Estrada, Happ, and Buehrle being so reliable, growing payroll and a hotshot young executive, playoff runs! "I'm Coming Home" commercial gets 3 billion views on youtube. Now: The most frustrating offense in baseball. Inexplicable underperformances are the norm. Core hitters struggle to lift the ball. Groundballs are a common disease. It takes four singles to score a run. Ghosts keep flyballs in the park, everywhere. Early career declines, mid-career declines, late career declines. Missing the playoffs or bowing out immediately. All trade acquisitions are disappointing. Most prospects don't work out. You'll try to hang your hopes on one prospect in A ball and a few old guys having decent years, but that's pretty much it. A stars and scrubs team where the scrubs are actually just total scrubs and the stars rarely do anything. Perpetual pathetic bridesmaid for top free agents. Limp-dick GM who probably wears bootcut jeans on weekends. The announcer asking fans to not boo the American anthem. Barbie hawaiin shirt night. What kind of loonie-dogger are you?

2025 Trade Deadline Toronto successfully moves Bo, Gausman, Bichette, Yimi, Springer, and somehow Myles Straw The return: eleven MLB-ready Joey Loperfidos

what is the point of watching anymore, really

Oh you have an arc You have an arc.

There are a couple of character arcs in message board history that I really enjoy 1. Terminator becoming a ray of sunshine as a natural progression of his anti-social personality because the message board became full of way too many cynical losers 2. Greenwood somehow moving from unserious message board super-troll to one of the best members of all of the dynasty fantasy leagues And then all of the other character arcs suck - everyone else is just a flameout.

Loved that one

Gimenez needs to heat up because Spooner Horwitz is debuting any day for Pitt.

shrewd signing by Ross
