Jerksticks

How about some macro predictions? Crazy times where anything can happen, right? Pretty sure they gotta hard pivot to QE again, so if you’re with me on that, how/when does it happen? Lately I’m leaning towards QT for 2-4 months, then some kind of “crisis” like Russia blows up natgas facility in Europe (can’t take credit for that idea, but lately I like it), that’ll force massive QE to the moon as the world we are bankrupting is forced to rush even more to dollars. Part of that QE will be student loan forgiveness, maybe credit card forgiveness & small business debt forgiveness too for balanced optics. Ooo, can’t forget the $15/hr minimum wage a certain somebody will take credit for. Should be $20 with steady QE to companies as they need it but that’s another convo. A lot of people are going to get hurt when the inflation really takes hold then, but based on that, it’s probably STILL early to not get left behind. I say if nothing else, at least buy a frickin house, even at 5-6%. What say you? Where do you like parking money moving forward?

I can’t really think of a single reason outside of QE.

If these people say “Putin’s price hikes” one more time, seriously, I’m just gonna root for aliens. I don’t see anything else that could possibly help ?. I just can’t believe Biden can look in the camera at the American public and say “Putin’s price hikes” with a straight face. All of them. They’re all saying it. Please, make it stop. Aliens, you’re seriously our last hope.

Holy F the best lineup of the year?

It’s so simple. Just put the guys struggling at the bottom. Earn your way back up. Like what the hell other kind of sane opinion is there

He actually alternated Bad & Good. BGBGBGBGG. And started with bad! And made sure two of the Goods batted 8&9 to make sure they got the least ABs!

I think we win this. Big Pollock game coming. So if we go like 36-5 in our next 41 games that puts us at 62-32, 30 games over.

Lol there’s definitely room on the banner for this comment

Mendick Vaughn Robert Abreu Burger Pollock/Moncada Moncada/Pollock Catcher Sosa/Leury Every damn game until TA is back. no more Harrison.

I know Herm Schneider had Pods in the office every other day or so.

Yea man, I’m one of the biggest chill out, positive guys here too. The lineup construction is maddening to me. I fucking hate it. I keep trying to think “well they know things about these guys that we don’t”, but it just seems like the tinkering is ridiculous. And all the rest. Let these guys play every day in the same spot

Some guys are just nervous guys. They look to blame when things go wrong and also look for credit when things go right. These are awful traits in adult males. And when a bunch of them come together and form a mob of nervous guys…well then the heads must roll! Guillotines! i think this has been going on for centuries, but I get that it’s particularly offensive in the modern era of reading it online. Hang in there brother

So if it was YOU managing, assuming these 3 are the first 3, how would you arrange them? Anderson, Vaughn, Robert or Anderson, Robert, Vaughn I like Vaughn 2 in case Tim has a 1 or 2 pitch AB. He can slow it down and work the guy a bit.

I believe it just has to click here pretty soon and they go on a 20-5 tear or similar.

Hopefully the guillotines get wheeled off RH, KW & JR’s front porches for the night.

What are we betting on again? All I know is I think we have maybe the best team in the history of the franchise and you’re worried about the Twins.

They didn’t lose 54 games yet did they??

We have a really good roster. I’m not jumping ship

Super exciting- congrats to both of you! Hey feel free to post any questions/ideas about home building, remodeling, repairs etc. I’m one of the probably many construction ptacs on here happy to hash out ideas.

Totally. Hopefully the Sox AND TA aren’t even beginning to think about any of this, let alone talk about it. What a terrible idea for the Sox right now.

I had forgotten that little detail. Thank you!

Your wife drink boilermakers while you sip flirtinis bro? im kidding

I still think the FO thinks very, very highly of one of our 2B prospects. They wouldn’t open up the Madrigal hole and not full it otherwise IMO.

Eh. Abreu needs to “volunteer” to bat near the bottom until he heats up. IMO that would really help. Not sure canning somebody just to shake things up is very honorable. I understand your frustration as a fan though.

Obviously not going to judge, form an opinion or even lean one way at this point because I’m not a total psycho and believe in human decency…but what’s up with the car jacking part of this? I mean after the last Saul episode, this has Wexler/Jimmy written all over it. KW & RH wear ninja costumes, car jack employee so he has to fail some psychiatric evaluation to give them cause to terminate contract? Fucking 10-d chess cool!
