  2. I've never ever heard him referred to D-No. Perhaps the players did as they tend to do that kind of thing on the field... but reporters shouldnt. What an embarassment.

  10. I don’t think he has to be a leadoff hitter. I think he has to be a major league hitter. If he can hit well enough to be a leadoff hitter, that’s just a bonus.

  11. I'd like to take some comfort in that except that his infield fly ball rate is really high and those outs aren't bad luck - they're soft contact outs. Parker is hitting under everything - extremely high fly ball rate, low GB rate. Could be he is late, could be he needs a mechanical adjustment to raise his swing path.

  12. Iran attacked Israel on April 13th. Trump’s trial began on the 15th. Israel retaliated to Iran’s attack of the 13th on April 19th. I believe your comment above is beyond anything that be proven at this point considering the other events outside Trump’s trial. The attack and counter attack between Iran and Israel are far more relevant to the ongoing protests than Trump’s trial.

  13. Also, pretty hilarious blaming college students for what the media decides to cover. Is it their fault you spammed the thread at a rate almost 2x any other poster in the thread with content about them as well? But not as hilarious as blaming shooting survivors for abortion bans.

  17. The way Perez is being featured, I think Meadows gets the axe unless he heats up. Unless Urshela can fill in at short, you still need McKinstry around. It doesn't help that Leonard and Kreidler got hurt in Toledo to give us some shortstop depth.

  22. This post is being dropped here, only because it just hit my happy spot when I saw it today. 🙂 Sometimes, tuning in to a baseball game, even if it’s just playing in the background while I’m doing stuff, brings me such a sense of calm. 🤷‍♀️ =============================== “[Baseball] breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall all alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.” ― A. Bartlett Giamatti

  24. Nate is on another level right now, no surprise moving to a better team made his points explode but he's leading the team too. I think he's tied for 3rd for WHL playoff points overall right now too. For a guy that plays a complete game this is great to see.

  26. thanks; did not know that; 25% K rate is a huge improvement, but just 18 games so far. Workman offers so much: speed, defense, some power, versatility - just needs to get his Ks to a managable level

  27. Things change so quickly in the NFL. In 2021 Goff's contract was considered so bad that the Rams had to attach a 1st round pick to make it go away. By the end of 2022, it was considered good value.

  29. agree. Even last year when "struggling" he was still smoking the ball for outs. I don't see that to the same degree this year.

  31. Yep, this isn't a situation like the niners will be in shortly where Purdy goes from being the cheapest player in the league to potentially one of the most expensive. Any potential salary or cap increase should be pretty negligible with Goff.

  33. If the choice is either sign Goff to big money and be forced to have a terrible o line or not sign him and have a top 3 line Id prob take the latter. The thing is though that it isn't an either or situation, the NFL cap is only going to continue to rise and so long as we continue to draft well so we can offset the expensive positions with cheaper guys on rookie contracts there is no reason we can't keep Goff and continue to have a dominant line with multiple expensive linemen.

  35. It's a bitch to drive thru though. Made the trek to TN 3 weeks ago. I used to hate driving through Ohio as a kid but as a driver I kind of like it. Once you get thru Toledo then you can relax and put the cruise control on and it's just you and some truckers. Then as you approach Dayton then fun begins and I hate that more than the rest of the state. There's always construction and getting across the river is a pain.

  37. Putting on my Motown Bombers hat a moment: I don't think there are too many QBs who don't struggle when protection breaks down or players missing blocking assignments. The question isn't if he struggled, but how much did he struggle and was it appreciably more than other QBs. Now, obviously a more mobile QB will struggle less (all other things being equal) as a mobile QB has one more tool to use in those situations vs. a less mobile QB. (Or perhaps it's better to say a more mobile QB has a better tool than a less mobile QB... splitting hairs here.) But all other things aren't equal, ever. Would I take Gared Joff who's identical in all areas to Jared Goff except he can run like Justin Fields? Hell yes! But Gared Joff doesn't exist.

  49. Could be. But he has a pretty consistent history of opting out when he can. I would say financial reasons would be a bigger motivator here. He can sign a max deal that is 35% of next years salary cap or 105% of his salary this year. So his pay is going up either way. He might also get extra years that he wouldn't normally get. Say his current deal has 2 years left. He looks fantastic now, but at his age a lot can change in 2 years. Maybe nobody gives him a max deal then. But sign a deal now for 3 or 4 years and those years will be at max value. That could be an extra hundred million for him.
