I would definitely be fine if he was the generational talent hitter we thought when we drafted him. I also think the comments were semi-suicidal for this organization. Possibly not for the Colorado Rockies which have a reputation for being less oriented toward success.
Agree. One other thing about Tork. He's supposedly the man who came up with the hockey stick and pizza pizza home run celebrations which i think were intended to curry favor with the Illitches but also seem to me to be slightly subversive. If the team comes up with a HR celebration that involves casino gambling (not hard to imagine a roulette wheel or dice throwing) or even more subversive -- something that depicts surface parking (backing a car up into a spot?) you'll have to wonder if he's a natural Spartacus.
Good!

Nothing happens until 2027 likely. Unless some real ricebowl smashing happens. They could theoretically cross a line when it starts to impact Medicaid/Medicare and SSN.
