DeMar might be in a tough spot here. Cause no team that wants him has enough cap room to outright sign him for what the Bulls offered, which was like 2 years and $80 million. So it has to be done through S&T unless DeMar agrees to play on the tax payer's MLE. Say he takes a slight discount to go home and the Clippers are willing to go 3 years $90 million for him, the Bulls could possibly take back Norman Powell and Ivan Zubac/Terrence Mann to make salaries match. I don't see the Clippers doing that since Zubac is the one big they have on their roster and I doubt the Bulls want to be saddled with 2 years of Norman Powell when they already have too many guards.

Isn't Smith a tweener? I think he's a nice signing and someone the Bulls desperately needed the last few years, but if they trade Vuc, they gotta go out and get a real center.

Cowley says DeRozan, LaVine, and Vucevic are not in the plans for next year.

He bunkered for the entire 2nd half. While I agree they needed to account for Panama's crosses, changing to a 531 and getting nothing going on offense doomed us. Because in any situation where Panama scores, you don't have the personnel to score a goal. Not to mention the extra CB he brought on, CCV, almost gave away 2 penalties on unnecessary challenges.

One of the dumbest reds I've seen a US player commit and we're probably gonna get grouped now. The unfortunate thing is that the Weah red probably absolves some blame from Berhalter. But still, not good enough. You can't lose to Panama at home with your best squad, even if you're down to 10 men. We really need to figure this out before 2026. We can't go into that tournament with these kinds of mistakes and embarrass ourselves as hosts.

He needs to develop a lot. Really good athlete, but really raw and not a 3 point shooter.

The Knicks gave up 5 first rounders for Mikal Bridges. Yet the Bulls can't get any for Caruso or LaVine. Bridges is coming off a down season too.

Copa America starts tonight for the USMNT. Need to win big against Bolivia to set the tone. If they get grouped Berhalter might finally get fired.

Unless he learns how to shoot he's gonna be an inefficient version of Lonzo.

At least they're finally blowing up the mid 3. It just so happens to be at the valley of their value.

Yeah and he sucked so much in the playoffs that the Thunder benched him. He's a jack of all trades, but good at none. He's also an RFA next year, so this is basically a 1 year for 1 year trade. You went from elite role player in Caruso to a mediocre project player. You also get no draft picks on top of it. I hate it and for once I wish AKME didn't make a trade.

Yeah he was decent in his 2 starts, but terrible in that relief appearance. I remember I liked how his change up and sweeper looked though. Anything could happen at this point, but he's trending in the right direction. His scouting grades also aren't that bad. FanGraphs gave him 50+ grades on 4 of his pitches.

I really liked his stuff when he first got called up. Seemed like he had command issues back then, but this 2nd stint has seen better command and better results.

Fedde is on track for a 4 WAR season. None of his peripherals say he's overly lucky, in fact they say that he's basically the pitcher his ERA indicates he is. He's under contract for cheap for one more year as well. If he keeps this up until late July, the Sox should be looking for a guy around top 100 for him. I'd be looking at Giolito-esque value, although the Angels seriously overpaid for him.

Ooooof

Everytime I watch Anderson, he gets 2 outs and then falls apart.

lmao Crawford just said wow at how slow Maldonado was.

Can't imagine being a player as good as him and having to deal with all the losing, this roster, and guys making routine mistakes.

Went half way right, but just started going back way too early. He ain't throwing you out from there even if you don't get a head start on going back.

I'm pretty sure someone on this board can too

Alright time to turn the game off. I don't want to see this bullpen attempt to pitch 4 innings.

Thorpe is a hell of an athlete. Kopech looked like he wanted no part of that bunt last night. That play looked way harder than the bunt.

Fastball velo is trending down, he just missed way high with it. He's tired.

2 errors basically cost Thorpe an inning's worth of pitches.

lol Sosa WTF
