Maybe they thought it was best to go with someone that wasn’t warm and fuzzy. You don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors.
-
How so? He’s not a football HC, he doesn’t mean much. It’ll only be a story if they aren’t winning but not liking Tony won’t make them try less hard
-
All the Jets fans are happy probably
-
The Brady story this year is a rollercoaster. Narrative changes by the week
-
“Am I too white to see what he said wrong?“ Of course you are. It’s called white privilege. You cant just go around speaking the truth when it’s not what people want to hear
-
Is the civilization rate < or > 5%?
-
Or just sounds like bs lol. Seriously how do you talk about payroll 2 months into FA.
-
"We obviously realize that the best way to recovery and getting back to full steam is winning," Atkins said. "We are united on that front." That’s my favorite quote. Fans or no fans next year shouldn’t prevent you from building your brand. Teams committed to winning will pay the good FA
-
Yeah outside of legs there’s not much push-ups doesn’t work and you’ll definitely get stronger on that regimen in a few months I agree it’s kind of fools errand to say is this one cheating and such. I mean we would never dream of saying Griffey, Jr took anything because he’s such a nice guy but plenty of guys in that era got popped. My line is body transformation. I remember A-Rod saying one year he put on 25lbs of muscle in few months. I just don’t think that doable even with elite trainers and nutritionists when you’re already all lean muscle.
-
I actually understand why they didn’t say anything as they thought it would influence the election but I think this genuinely effects FA as it’s been all doom and gloom. Agents are really getting some leverage back here
-
As I thought, as soon as the election was over, they’re talking about the 90% effective vaccine coming end of November on the first roll out. Obviously they’ll be more hurdles to cross getting it out to hundreds of millions rather than just the sick but I really doubt there’s going to be much, if any discount on the better players.
-
Nelson Cruz pops to mind right away. Braun. As soon as he went off wasn’t same player. A lot of the positives in baseball’s history came outside of testing which calls into question if they’re catching cheaters.
-
Going to need to replace those guys obviously. Dodgers will be busy in FA looks like
-
I could see Mark Ruffalo as Cash.

Robbie Ray back on a 1 year 8 million dollar deal.

Nothing now anyway, sure. If they only pick up Ray and below though, there will probably be some anger from some -

I don’t feel the Covid discount. I guess we’ll have to see what other moves happen to put this deal in perspective -
Have you ever been on a sports team? Don’t mean to use the tired takedown but genuinely it makes you understand the moment just a little more. If you said they were irresponsible it’d be one thing but to suggest they’re stupid is wrong.
-
Yeah, I think the effort is no doubt going to be there. In these cases though, you have success stories that just expect success and then you have Daniel Snyders. I foresee him being the former though, we’ll see
-
He actually properly expanded on it douche
-
I can’t believe I don’t even remotely remember the Brandon Martin story. I was apparently living under a rock then
-
All depends on what ladder you’re talking about:) Jokes.. But seriously, I guess it helps when he’s not hitting as expected. If Ortiz or Fielder is coming off an MVP bat year I’m not wondering what will happen if they lost 75lbs. Considering VG’s case, I’d say it prob makes sense to try things to get to next level
-
When I think Vlad the guys that pop to mind are Ortiz, Fielder, Mo Vaughn etc. When they were healthy they were just fine. As you mentioned, there’s a mechanical issue, maybe the weight loss helps and maybe it doesn’t. No debating it helps with bsr and fielding though
-
I’m just saying I don’t automatically assume mechanics of a swing will be better from a weight loss. Maybe he uses that extra girth for torque.
-
If opening day comes around and all the other star SS haven’t signed extensions, that means they’ll be testing the market most likely. So I think a team like Toronto should pass on giving their best assets for one year. Might make more sense for big market club
-
How is it an old wives tale? I’d bet money I can bench probably double what Altuve benches, so why can he hit a baseball so much farther than me. There’s a lot of complicated physics involved and so it’s silly to think losing weight just automatically makes you better at swinging the bat
