I think Nashville would be a frontrunner for an expansion team. In that case i would move Toronto to the east, Rays to the south and Nashville in the north.

Last game I watched with West behind the plate he was terrible. It would of been an improvement if he was 90% correct. I think Joe is making a good decision and Angel Hernandez should follow him out the door.

That sounds familiar and like a good plan.

I think JV is too much of a gamble for the tigers to sign unless they get him very cheap. He's not a young guy anymore but mainly he's coming off a major surgery. Tigers need to be smart with their spending and dumping a bundle on JV doesn't seem like a smart move for them at this time.

If you don't know what's happened over the last year and a half you are very uninformed, not paying attention, blinded by your alligance to your political party or most likely, All of the above.

I'm not sure if it's reading or comprehension you are having a problem with. If you think Trump was behind the long lockdowns in some states you are very uninformed. The states with the long lock downs had democrat governors like MI and CA. When those states closed businesses guess what??? Unemployment increased!

The big difference is nothing is locked down now and thing are returning to normal. The vaccines are helping that. The fact that the lockdowns have ended are what has helped the jobs to return. The virus is still present in the country and bad at times in some places. The recent spike was the worst ever in some places. Is that clear enough?

Is Rocker is back into the draft again this year since he didn't sign? I assume he would be?

It will be interesting to see who they offer contracts to and who they let go. Last year most people thought they would let some of the players go but they signed everyone.

What do you mean? Covid has spiked since the start. Most of the country is coming off a spike now that was worse than ever in some states.

That's why we need someone else to run and not Trump.

Trump had to deal with covid at the onset when not as much was known and treatment and equipment were not available. Now 70% of the country has received the vaccination and they have found some drugs that worked. Biden hasn't done much other than try to mandate the vaccine and force people to wear masks in federal buildings and transportation. Who knows if masks work or not. I assume they provide at least a little protection but most people don't wear them anymore. Although you shouldn't have to if you've been vaccinated.

The economy and unemployment under Trump -before covid- were great. Now covid isn't any better with record number of cases in some states. However, states are not closed down and people are no longer getting paid not to work so some things are improving. Inflation is now a major problem for Biden. He doesn't have an answer for that.

Before covid our economy was booming and had the lowest unemployment in decades. Then covid hit and unemployment skyrocketed. A lot of that was due to democrat governors closing states down. Look what Michigan and California were like. Then they were basically paying people not to work. Hundred of thousands died because of covid and more dying today. Trump didn't handle it well but the results may have been the same under any president. At least Trump got several vaccines. We also don't know if that would have happen under another President. Democrats in part are responsile for some of that debt. Remember when Trump didn't want to sign a spending bill but the democrat House refused to budge? Would it been better to shut the government down? As for murders what has that got to do with Trump? There's areas that are going to be bad and bad people cause violence. Trump supported police unlike a lot of democrats that actually want to stop finding them. Now with Biden's open border plan we are letting in all kinds of people that are unvetted and they're being shipped around the country. That won't help matters. The people that actually voted for that could see the truth. Your comparisons are apples and oranges.

So are you happy with the state of the country right now? I've said it before and will repeat it, I'm not Trump supporter and would rather see someone else run. However, voting for Trump in 2020 was better than going with what we have now. I refuse to vote for the bad candidate because I don't like the other guy.

I learned that fairly quick. That's pretty normal with a liberal crowd. I've got thick skin so they don't bother me. I just stick to the facts which unfortuatly upsets some folks.

I would try Kreidler first. There could be others available that aren't top tier but better than what we have. I'm holding out hope for Correa. I don't want to see them get stuck long term with Semien or Story especially for a lot of money. I don't think they're worth it.

I'm releived to know that I'm not the only one here that didn't vote for Biden.

Too funny. I will send you my address so you can send me a check too. Why do liberals think that anyone that doesn't agree with them is a troll?

I wouldn't want to sign Semien or Story for more than a year or two. I'm sure both are looking for long term deals as anyone would. If Tigers are looking at either of them I would wait until last minute if they were available and maybe get a deal.

Also Trump isn't POTUS anymore. Move on and concentrate how to fix the current issues that democrats are responsible for.

I'm presenting facts that you don't want to hear because they don't fit the narritive of your political party. Your hate for one man is multiplied because your guy currently in office has been a complete failure to this point and the guy before him had a fair amount of success that democrats refuse to acknowledge.

Disabled vets don't pay property tax. Its not much of a payback for the loss of your legs or other functions. Fox is no different than any other so called news source. They sensationalize what they want you hear and don't talk about what they don't want you to know. I don't know off any news source that doesn't do that. All of them are biased.

I've read a lot on Greene but never saw him play except for a few highlight reels. A lot of people put him in CF. Is he really fast enough for CF or would Baddoo or Hill be better in CF? I hope they sign a Tier 1 pitcher instead of some of the hope and prayer pitcher projects Avila has been signing. However they work 1B it should be someone other than Schoop. 1B is not his position and they need him at 2B,

Yeah we've that series enough times. I'm hoping for Rays on the AL side.
