  1. Can we all agree that the Omar Narvaez / Alex Colome trade was a massive W for Rick Hahn?
  2. one of the food guys tweeted that Hendriks' wife is Canadian, so the seed for this has been planted.
  3. Is this the same type of argument that Gio's no-hitter wasn't impressive because it came against the Pirates' "garbage offense"?
  4. ...we're all splitting hairs and yelling at each other... over a player that isn't going to sign here.
  5. Does this mean we can all collectively “move on”? He’s old. He’s a JR hire. He got pinched for a DUI. Can we all stop trying to outdo each other with the TLR lamentations?
  6. This is the same guy who paid $700,000 to a "professional tanner" and a convicted felon for dirt on A-Rod.
  7. From my terribly pessimistic fan-perspective, his whole conversation stinks. We have owners wanting to shorten the season, likely resulting in another round of partial salaries to contracts they signed to pay. On the other side we have agents and the player union calling them out for it. There's no place for politicking sports. I don't think we have the commissioner to properly navigate it either. Watch "Screwball" on Netflix if you want to know exactly what kind of leader Manfred is. I just want to watch baseball, dammit.
  8. KW said the only job he would quit the Sox for was the Raiders GM.
  9. Just a reminder that 75% of Hendriks' career WAR came from ONE of his 10 seasons in the majors, his 2019 season. Also playing devil's advocate here, but ... the dude's 31 years old. Do you really want to set the reliever market by signing him to a top of the market deal for what could potentially be his "wrong side of 30" regression?
  10. Its actually "Chris Martin" There was a study done by PR firms in the early 2000s regarding names that could be signed on "Customer Service" letters sent out to owners of products (typically cars and household appliances). Those letters are signed "Chris Martin" because it is the most non-offensive, generic name possible.
  11. I remember my Dad taking me to bowling alley bars to watch home games on satellite. Dark days.
  12. I just listened to the end of the call... holy crap we're making something out of nothing.
  13. At this point in his career, isn't Adam Eaton essentially Scott Podsednik with an arm? Also, throwing out 2020 Eaton stats also means you have to throw out Mazara's 2020 stats.
  14. yea, I would imagine anyone on the roster is pretty tired of being asked about TLR.
  15. this is such a White Sox move. But hey, if they have to DFA him midseason, its only 3m more than Mazara woulda made.
