The Bloomberg Morning Consult poll looked really good today: Harris +11 in Michigan Harris +2 in Arizona Harris +2 in Wisconsin Harris +2 in Nevada. Tied in Georgia

Has anyone here tried using twitter without logging in? It is one scary site when I do that. I get bombarded with absolute right wing madness. Once I get into my account, I can avoid most of it as long as I don't click on trending topics which are mostly right wing conspiracy theories.

As much as Trump and all the other turds in his circle deserve it, I don't like the weird campaign for a couple of reasons. First, calling people weird kind of goes against the whole diversity and inclusion message. Second, I think it might backfire on them bcause they will be seen as elitists who think they are better than MAGAs. It's similar to the basket of deplorables remark by Clinton in 2016. It's OK when Tim Walz does it because he knows how to say it and he doesn't come across as elitist, but others won't get away with it.

Yes, I am not disappointed with the return, because it's about what I expected. I continue to be disappointed that they are not in a position where they are getting the proven player.

It's about what I expected. Chances are none of them will be very good, but they all have some potential. That's what you get from a rental. Baseball is more fun when you are the team getting the rental because it's means you are good.

Indeed, that was another fail.

Most posters here would question that.

It's one of the worst things that can happen in the MLB.

Remember in Spring training when the Tigers had too many starting pitchers? What were they going to do with all of them?

I remember it vaguely.

That is the important stuff.

I think Chas and me were both being tongue in cheek in saying that it was absolutely wrong to include the zero before batting average. It is aesthetically wrong, but cetainly not mathematically wrong. The worst name for a traditional stat, by the way, is slugging percentage. as it is neither a percentage nor a proportion.

proportions then. You got me, but batting average has historically been presented as a proportion. Anyway, my point still stands.

I think when people are refreshing Twitter all day to see a Flaherty (or a long shot Skubal) trade and they see a Ricky Vanasco trade, you can expect some sacastic posts. It's probably more humor than criticism.

This is what I expect too.

That makes it an excellent troll then

I would never do that!

I knew it was a joke. I didn't get it though.

Not sure why I would stop rooting for the Tigers after 57 years especially when they didn't have good teams for the majority of those years and now seem to be headed in a positive direction.

I expect Dingler to struggle a lot initially. He has shown enough where I want to see what he can do in the Majors now, but I am not expecting him to have a better career than Rogers.

Imagine suppoting Trump and calling the other side dumb and juvenile. Also, trump doesn't have any policy, just right wing one liner talking points.

I am not pummelling him. There is only deal he may have ****ed up but we aren't allowed to talk about that here. 😄

He's smart. I wasn't expecting a top 10 prospect, just somebody beter than a typical Harris waiver pick. I don't really care though. Nothing about a Carson Kelly trade is worth getting upset about.

Harris can pick up guys like that off the waiver wire, something he has been good at.

There are some pretty big ifs in there.
