Midge knows which way the winds are blowing... I'm all about infighting, but it's definitely all about opportunism

Uh sir, your third baseman has been dead for 120 years….

Shea Langeliers is emerging as a legit star. I thought he was going to be a top tier player. I didn't see Ben Rice emerging as a bona fide star. i think he's the early favorite for AL MVP. Mickey Moniak and Matt Olson are off to hot starts but I'm sure they'll find some way to give the NL MVP to Ohtani. They really want someone to win more mvp's than Bonds.

From the moment I saw Bane's contract 3 years ago I said it was an overpay. The worst thing you can do in the NBA is max out an "almost All-Star". Especially in the new cap. Bane isn't a #1 or a #2. He's not an All NBA player. If he makes an All-Star team some year he'll be squeaking in as a reserve. Sound familiar? Jalen Duren, this is you I'm talking about. You want those guys on team friendly contracts, like Trey Murphy's deal. Not a max.

I wonder if teams passed on McGonigle because he was from the Philly area. I know teams passed on Mike Trout because he was from Jersey...not far from Philly because there was this belief that trout didn't face tough competition. Wonder if the same was true of McGonigle. But high school kids are really just a crap shoot.

I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of a baseball club don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.

Why? He already had 3 years left on his deal and we haven't even gotten to play a game in the second round of the playoffs yet. Are they trying to get ahead of the CotY awards in case he wins it? Previously we had a Weaver organization that made moves on top of moves, recklessly firing "all the bullets in the clip" and shedding assets along the way. Now we have the opposite. An organization that is loyal to a fault. This is the type of organization that cripples its future by giving Duren a max contract, so get ready for it.

You know what. He only plays every 5th day. If they let this totally derail them, then they don't deserve to make it. On the other thand when it's Skubal........and.....Mize......and....Olson.....and......Melton........well, then it's concerning Let's just be thankful to be in a division where 82-85 probably wins it this year.

And up until last week wasn’t Chayka managing 15 Wendy’s franchises, having been out of hockey for 6 years? Edit: Yes. But it was 50 franchises. .

I am confident the Tigers will survive and Skubal will return, but because of this he will only be able to go 5 innings in the deciding game of a playoff series, not 6.

Don't know...but there's been a lot of advancements made in the field of medicine since 1966

also Mr. Burns: Compadres, it is imperative that we crush the freedom fighters before the start of the rainy season. And remember, a shiny new donkey for whomever brings me the head of Colonel Montoya.

Is this the DEA boss in the 3rd season of Narcos telling his underlings that they actionable information and a reliable Columbia police strike team to work with?

The report is that Iran hit the terminus of UAE's pipeline bypassing Hormuz - if true that's maybe another million BBL/day taken off the market.

if Melton is back quick and is good, and Flaherty straightens out, they *might* stay in it, but this is pretty much turning out to be a season from HeII

Hey, I’m still here and all that. As Elvis Costello sang: ♬ Allison, I know this world is killing you Oh, Allison, my aim is true… ♬

I have been assured repeatedly that Harris Hinch prefers pitching chaos, as well as a roster of nothing but utility players, because they think it highlights their contrarian genius or something

Two questions: Who is **** is Magoo? What is with the sad-looking emoji and what's coming out of his mouth? Is that a flex of some kind?

Better be on the phone to Tyler Anderson or Frankie Montas if they're still out there.

Why does this guy insist on coming across as the president of preschool?

That's kind of where I am by default. I liked it better when Skubal was healthy though!

Not mine. It's more interesting to me. To see how they can remain in contention while working through the adversity.

Hard to do with hostile media at every turn.

Could probably add this and possibly Country Joe and the Fish
