    I don't really get UZR, but FG seems to indicate that Carpenter had been above average in LF (SSS) and basically average in RF this year. (they give him negative value overall as a fielder I assume because he DHs a lot; don't understand that either). But if he is average, then they have a pretty good long term piece.

    I know "If Obama said that," is overdone, but if Obama said he preferred a foreign country over America, Fox would hold a five day telethon, and their anchors would literally weep about the damage he has damage to the county by saying that

    "pro life" party strikes again

    to me "winning" a trade means you improved your team. and the other side does not have to lose for you to win. regardless of what Parades and the comp pick draftee did, if Austin Meadows simply put up his career average performance the last 2 years, that would have been a win for Detroit

    did this Vierling at 3rd silliness come from Harris? hard to see why Hinch would try to force it mid-season

    churn

    if the Tigers tack on 3 years at 17M per, then its 9 figures

    I don't think voiding his pre-trail release is the first step (she can try a gag order) but obviously the only way he will ever stop is if she takes him into custody. That's where this is heading.

    that would unnecessarily burn a 40 man roster spot that Harris might want to churn all winter, but I would love to see him in Detroit this fall

    his Toledo numbers are nice, but don't scream: I demand to be promoted. Defense is still a work in progress. They are not going to exhaust his rookie eligibility by playing him in some meaningless August 2023 games. he would be 22 on Opening Day 2024.

    Trump says he is not interfering with a witness in his case, and instead clarifies he is interfering with a witness in his case.

    certainly appears as though Austin's career is over https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38139341/tigers-austin-meadows-having-rough-s-anxiety

    two would be better than just one. Skubal - coming off major surgery; Manning - blah; Mize - coming off major surgery; Turnbull - coming off major surgery and blah; ERod - may be gone and weirdo. Olson, Faedo, Madden, Flores, Hurter, Wentz - nice depth but who knows; really no one impactful until Jobe in 2025

    simply build an annex at a club fed; 3 rooms: trump's cell; bathroom; SS room. trump can pay for it; he's a billionaire
  15. RatkoVarda
    it would be money well spent

    He will certainly be convicted and almost certainly be sentenced to incarceration. Martha Stewart, Mike Tyson and Dennis Hastert all went to jail. Yes, its hard to believe. Other things hard to believe: Donald Trump was elected President. Donald Trump illegally tried to stop his successor from taking office. If he does not serve time, then its all for naught.
  17. RatkoVarda
    why not? send him to a club fed. SS can join him if they like. we will foot the bill for that. FBP has incarcerated all sorts of people. they are good at it.

    the "he" here was not Austin Meadows; it was Ryan Kreidler
  19. RatkoVarda
    ugh

    ineffective assistance of counsel might be his best recourse after he gets convicted. this guy made the round on TV, repeatedly admitting that Trump committed one of the crimes that Smith charged him with.

    bonkers offense at every level, and a lot from the "real" prospects more on Justice Bigbie: except for one Freep article, cannot find anything on line about him. The parallels with Carpenter are glaring, though Bigbie is RH and his surge is more hit based, not power. Pretty great year obviously. Erie is going to playoffs, but he might force his way to Toledo if he keep going like this

    others have pointed out, you could have thrown a dart at the Houston system in August 2017 and have had a good chance at getting a future MLB pitcher
  23. RatkoVarda
    they could have kept him in Complex league, but FSL is age appropriate; absolutely brutal April May and June. has really turned it around though; season stats may not look that bad if he can keep it going
  24. RatkoVarda
    Rosenthal specifically criticizes Harris multiple times for not getting anything for the best pitcher on the market who, if healthy, is walking away for nothing
  25. RatkoVarda
    I will give Harris huge props for 1) getting someone to meet his high asking price and 2) not throwing ERod under the bus, which he so clearly deserves. Tigers treated him well last year. Would be nice to have some reciprocity.
