Detroit Pistons (4-15) vs Los Angeles Lakers (10-11)

I’m not so sure about that.

Congratulations to UoM.

Yes.

I was being a bit sarcastic. But, let’s have fun and say Baez returns to the Mets to play 2B, Semien signs with the White Sox to play 2B, and one of Seagar/Taylor stays with the Dodgers. Suddenly the pickings have gotten slimmer, and two of the SSs are now at 2B.

Middle school teams scoff at their outside shooting.

Kreidler is that good, eh?

Jilted drunken sailor that’s been triple dog dared.

Correa from Houston to Texas is interesting to me, although only because of any rivalry that might exist between the two.

Ah,….. just get both.

Is Avila sleeping in on Black Friday?

That’s an interesting option. I would have to think it’s a deal that only Story might consider for now to try to redo a contract year. Maybe if it’s close to spring trading and Baez is still waiting a deal, he’d consider it. But I honestly wouldn’t think either scenario are likely.

That’s a good point about ballpark effects. I don’t know to be honest.

I like JAWS as a measure of prime performance. Rolen holds his own based on that measure. You know what it kind of reminds me of (on a quick summary level)? Rolen had a better prime, Whitaker maybe a better career.

I'm traveling with the family, in a hotel suite. I'm on my work computer waiting for some tasks in a queue to be completed before I check over some numerals this morning for fiscal month end close. I was up early because I am used to that during the week. It seemed like MTF & bbref were better options than porn given all of the factors.

Should Cecil get some extra credit for siring Prince? Is there a stat for that? Kind of like an assist in basketball and hockey?

And water is wet.

Rodriguez vs Matz, 2021: Rodriguez vs Matz, career: At first thought, I liked the Rodriguez deal over Matz. On second thought, I'm not so sure. Rodriguez is the younger guy, so the Tigers have a better chance at prime performance. Matz is locked in for 4 seasons, while Rodriguez could be out after 2 (although the Tigers have an inside track at keeping him after 2). Maybe 4/$44M isn't as bad for Matz as I originally thought, but Rodriguez (5/$77M) is still the better pitcher. Maybe the contracts are pretty comparable to one another when taking into consideration the actual performance behind those pitchers?

Its just a poor shooting team altogether. Can't shoot, can't rebound, and can't hold onto the ball. I'm an idiot, but I think that's a pretty bad combo. Look at these numbers. I have not watched every game, but it seems like they've done a decent job of moving the ball around this season on offense (for the most part). Maybe its just a matter of the defense giving them the outside and not allowing drives, I don't know. Grant had his streak of 3s vs the Lakers. Jackson/Bey can get hot (maybe mild is the better term) at times. That's it from the perimeter.

So, it looks like there is a doubleheader in Los Angeles on Thanksgiving Friday. Tickets to both are still available: If you didn't know anything about basketball and stumbled upon this, you might think there is a decimal out of place on one of those.

Detroit Pistons (4-14) vs Los Angeles Clippers (10-8)

I'd pass on Jimenez.

I'm surprised to see Cincinnati in the top 4. I didn't think it would happen until the last poll.

Detroit Pistons (4-13) vs Milwaukee Bucks (10-8)

Is it close to ultimate drunken sailor territory?
