Never say never.

And just like that, Jose Ramirez starts a fantastic double play to get the Cs out of the inning.

Guardians playing a rookie at 1B who has all of 92 innings of professional experience there. He misplayed a throw in the dirt (eventually ruled E6), and now the Yankees have a bit of something going after a walk behind that.

Speaking of Our Lady, I’m not the only one that sees Urban Meyer replacing Marcus Freeman, am I?

Whoa, slow down, G. High school French was a long, long time ago.

I think a lot of folks are intrigued about what Harris does this off-season. The great unknown about his first steps to try to bring this team back to some semblance of decent competition.

Iglesias is a free agent.

Playing waiver wire catcher roulette isn’t enough for you? 😆
-
I think that’s a valid argument.

Au contrere mon frere. I want better scheduling. It didn’t exactly work out like it should have scheduling Notre Dame this season, but it’s absolute schadenfrude to pretend Colorado State, Hawaii, and Connecticut are anything but cheap wins.

If one wants to go by wins over quality opponents, thus far Michigan has the better win than Ohio State, sure. Its just kind of amusing how quality of opponent wasn't an issue until now. And I guess if we're going to denigrate Notre Dame, you'll need to update that out of conference cupcake victories above to 3 each for UoM and OSU. Nobody wants to go back to a BCS system, but I would like to see a computer ranking system rather than human polls. There are still biases involved, as the computer system is set up by humans. But those biases should be minimized if set up correctly. Everyone starts off tied at the beginning of the season, and the results on the field are judged independently of "eye test".

For all intents and purposes, the conference championship will be played in Columbus on November 26th at noon. And it’s looking a helluva lot like it’ll be undefeated vs undefeated.

Who knew scheduling Notre Dame would be more of a detriment than scheduling Colorado State, Hawaii, and Connecticut? 😆
-
1,411 points vs 1,408 points. It’s pretty much a tie between Michigan & Tennessee.
-
Seattle fans continuing to chant "Let's go Mariners" well after the final playoff eliminating out of an historical 6 1/2 hour odyssey for their home town team. That was cool.
-
And keep in mind that the Phillies switched managers this season.
-
Rankings right now don't mean diddly pooh. But they're fun to fun to look at, so here we are.
-
I got all day to laugh at Notre Dame.
-
I hear that the Padre fans were so excited, they marched overnight to Tennessee to repossess the goal posts that were torn down after Tennessee beat Alabama.
-
Aren't we about at the time for the Tuesday night committee rankings? Not that it matters right now anyways.

Hey, Maw! Lookee the new laundry poles I gotcha to hang yer britches to dry!

I was out at dinner, away from TVs. Did I miss something?

How many spots on the 26/40 man rosters can they turn over in an offseason? What's the realistic expectation given lackluster free agent options? Maybe I'm taking too conservative of an outlook on it. I'm just not sure the resources outside of the organization are going to be available to acquire to pull this team up to .500.

I would be happy with prioritizing setting up the structure of the organization. Set up the mechanisms of the on field talent acquisition & development parts of the franchise. Get the bones of the structure in place. I think we are seeing some of that now with some of the job postings that have been broadcast. And the eventual GM hiring falls in place with this as well. That's not to say that filling out the major league team isn't on the to do list for 2023. But take decisions like Candelario & Schoop. If they decide to take the chance that they are recoverable pieces with the right batting coaches, that's fine. Focus on a RHH OF, healthy SP arms, some depth at C (the recent swap of Papierski in and Sanchez out ain't that) this offseason as the top of the player shuffling, OK, I can see that as reasonable. And they probably need to hope like crazy that Baez has an absolute bounce back to use his opt out. I think now that he's been on the roster for a season, it is more apparent that he cannot be the best player on a good team. He can be a valuable part of a championship roster, be he cannot be the player to build around.
