All I can think about right now is that the Orioles not getting a frontline starter is like the Sox avoiding genuine attempts to fill RF and 2B during the rebuild/brief playoff runs

Stress on the word "signing" my man. Bummer and Stassi trades are fine.

I'll have you know that we didn't start the fire

Trading a prospect as part of a package where you're trading your #1-2 level ace would be so next level stupid that Getz would need to actually be fired on the spot. I don't care if it's an org top 5 prospect like Ramos or someone that has cratered off the cliff like Cespedes. Fortunately, despite me loathing basically every non-Fedde signing, I have confidence in Getz to not do that.

Caulfield and I just had intense Mandela Effect

He supposedly slept with Miguel Cabrera's wife while in Detroit.

Unless I am wildly mistaken, Related (the development company that built Hudson Yards in NYC) owns it. Their majority owner is Stephen Ross, owner of the Dolphins. If he's moonlighting as an Iranian arms dealer, then the Dolphins just became the most fascinating team in the NFL to follow.

I have doubts about whether or not these are legit renders — especially so early in an unconfirmed process — but if so, I'm sold. https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/showpost.php?p=10123020&postcount=1163

Chuck: Get rid of Moncada and TA to build character Also Chuck: Bring in Puig

Even though I haven't been to The Cell in years, the snippet about the Fire possibly taking over as tenants makes me happy — because it's the only Sox Park I've ever known and it means a perfectly viable stadium (unless something has happened in the past six years) wouldn't be demolished just because Reinsdorf wants a new toy.

If you ask two SoxTalkers a question, you'll get three opinions. This man has united the board like no other.

No, because it takes a tremendous amount of arrogance or stupidity to reach my threshold and you've broken the sound barrier with the speed of Ricky Henderson on coffee laced with cocaine.

Dude is just the Rick & Morty meme but baseball flavored

Oh God, shut up

And as we all know, #1 prospects all turn into Hall of Fame superstars.

Baltimore when they face five Dylan Ceases in the playoffs, with five Colson Montgomerys batting in the order:

We trade Cease to ourselves for Montgomery and Schultz. It's like the Mewtwo cloning glitch in Pokemon Blue.

Victor Reyes was an infinitely more exciting depth signing than the MiLB guys we've signed this year and a good chunk of the MLB guys signed. And he wasn't that exciting.

Jackson Holliday for Dylan Cease straight up. Might as well dump a barrel of crude oil onto the dumpster fire

If they trade Fields to Atlanta, there is a hypothetical Harrison + Daniels draft, but that has to be done during the draft and that's walking the tight rope.

The worst part is that my grandmother in law is 96 and has been a ride-or-die O's fan since Day 1 and we've bonded over baseball. I'd like Cease to go there to make them better for her. This thread is making it tricky.

If I've learned one thing, it's that teams who rely on Craig Kimbrel as their big external addition are guaranteed to go far

The Orioles will trade Ryan Ripken, final offer.

If Bradfield isn't on the table, then every non-Joey Ortiz — who is old enough to go by Joseph — member of the Orioles top 8 is off the table.
