Right now, they are lacking a #2 starter. Mize, Olson and Flaherty are all fine, but they don't have a big guy to put behind Skubal for post-season. Hopefully, one of them gets on a roll at the right time which is often what wins the post-season.

I fully agree, but there are a lot of people who think it's great that Trump is sarcastic and jokes about things or pretends to have done so after the fact. That is a big part of his appeal.

Maybe, but too many walks! And you don't really know what you're getting from a reliever who has been out for more than a year. I have no expectations for him.

I do remember the year he led MLB with 58 doubles.

LOL, Good luck with that!

Yes, that is the one thing he gets right. MAGA has claimed that they want that too. We will see what they think if their leader gets us involved in a new war.

LOL, Nobody likes Ted Cruz. Even POS Carlson doesn't like him.

That is the problem with dealing veterans for propects at the deadline. It seems that the team getting the veteran has more leverage more often than not.

That's why I said Devers is a special case. He has proven to be a malcontent, but all things being equal I think Harris will take talent over fit. He's not going to take a gritty 3B over a top five 3B because of fit, but he might do it because of money.

Most of his followers believe this. There is no use talking to them about politics.

Devers appears to be a special case. Generally, I think it's more about money than fit.

Just because somebody is half assed by nature does not mean they can't do something half ass.

I look at the person, not their status. If an immigrant is working hard, contributing to society and not harming anyone, then I don't care how they got here. Undocumented status does not at all suggest to me that someone is a bad person or harmful to society. Most immigrants don't come here to start trouble or to take advantage of us. They come here because they left bad situations and want to make a better life for themselves and their families. Once they get that, they are not going to turn themselves in and be returned to hell. They are going to take a chance of not getting caught. I am pretty sure you would too. That is not to say I want "open borders". That would cause all kinds of logistics problems. What I would like to see is a better immigration system moving forward.

That was an unforced error. If they didn't want to pay for him, they should not have given him the contract. Then they compounded the problem by signing another player at the same position. If they didn't want to spend money, they could have gotten a lot more in return for Devers a couple of years ago.

I'm pretty sure everyone currently commenting in this thread voted for Harris. The only exception might be Trump loving Tigeraholic and he hasn't been around much lately.

I was saying that Chapman was 32. The post to which I was responded suggested that Chapman could be traded to the Tigers. I don't believe the Giants have any plans of moving Chapman to another team or off his position.

Rules are rules for those who make the rules or those who pay them to make the rules.

Shouldn't the person who hired them also get arrested? That person seems more at fault to me. Also, Trump is claiming that they are only going after violent criminals which according the ablove statistics is blatantly false.

Who is Duran? I don't know. I meant Devers.

I know it's prevalent in baseball, but it still seems dumb to me like not bunting to break up a no hitter. If you make a terrible trade outside your division, you'll look dumb too. Now with the more balanced schedule, it makes even less sense.

Red Sox fans are going ape**** over this move. I like it!

He is still good, but is 32 and still has 5 years left on his contract. So, it's probably not s good idea for the Tigers. The Giants will likely try to get Duran to play first.

It's going to be fun when Chapman returns from his injury in a couple of weeks.

Fear of failure is not a good quality for a GM!

None of this matters at all. The right wing politicians and media are going to tell us that the parade was the greatest celebration in US history and MAGA world will eat it up.
