  1. when his supporters hear about this, they will stop supporting him for sure
  2. French is an interesting dude; nice guy for sure; but he childishly thinks that the GOP is about to have a come to Jesus moment (any day now!) when they realize, much to their shock and dismay, that Trump is a bad guy; he talks about a political party that does not exist anymore
  3. the lollygaggers and the miscreants would understand that Harris means business and would start producing so they did not join Hinch on the next bus out of town to Loserville?
  4. Miggy's been good of late; knee must not be barking
  5. they seem to have a lot of injuries in the minors; no idea if they have more, or even less, than other teams. some of these names I have never seen before. kudos to them about being relatively transparent.
  6. everything Harris says is probably 100% true and if Avila said these same things...
  7. I suspect that the Bedminster details will come out at trial; we have literally seen the boxes being loaded/unloaded in NJ; so they had to either execute a warrant we don't know about, or have had a very good reason to think nothing there
  8. he can play just about anywhere including SS, and works as a platoon partner with McKinstry, Maton or Keith
  9. some interesting names here https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-trade-candidates-change-of-scenery-2023
  10. 7 weeks from tomorrow is the trade deadline. Harris has done well in his 3 trades: Jimenez-Malloy; Soto/Clemens-Maton/Vierling/Sands; Guzman-McKinstry. Dombrowski had a magical run of great trades, and at the start, I don't think he had much more to work with than what Harris has now, which is, not very much. Lorenzen – textbook trade deadline acquisition; SP who has experience as RP; expiring deal; reasonable $; having probably best year of his career; if they want him on the 2024 Tigers, then great, sign him this winter as FA ERod -hopefully off IL by 8/1; opting out so need to get something, literally anything, for him Boyd – very little value; you can hopefully trick a team into an Olson-type return? Lange-Foley-Vest – need to listen; hope for crazy offers McKinstry – this, right now, is the best he can perform, and if some team will pay a premium for that (Seattle?) you should sell high CBB - trading for another one would be great; but what value can Harris get trading away the 37th pick? Anyone else - cannot wait to see some of that world famous Scott Harris calculated risk in action
  11. unnecessarily starting his clock immediately seems pointless
  12. what a wonderful self-fulfilling prophecy: this team sucks bad, so it makes sense that we spent no money on free agents to improve it. how is that not the same argument that can be made this winter? we are not ready to spend because - you guessed it - the team sucks bad, in part because we spent no money on free agents to improve it. Harris has a 2023 payroll less than the major league average and is $13M less than last year when they had a historically bad offense. as a a fan, it is NOT my job to correctly identify the players that can help this team in free agency, the draft, through trades, Rule 5 draft or any other way. Harris and Co. are paid - literally - millions of dollars to do that. what would this team look like with Jean Segura, Wil Myers and Brian Anderson? I have no effing clue! solutions are NOT coming from the farm. Through 2024, Keith might be up as a major league starter. but everyone else (Malloy, Meadows, Jung, ...) looks like more of what we have a lot of (outside of Green and maybe Baez): 1-2 WAR bench, platoon, and complimentary guys. I also see you stopped referencing the Rangers pointless FA spending spree in the winter of 2021, now that they are in 1st place.
  13. documents on display like animal heads on a wall, except on a stage in MAL ballroom to make it easier for all the foreign agents to look at
  14. bottom line, its not working basically same results as last year with Coolbaugh, a few more walks, a few less hits, still zero power a consistent theme: very little talent, but clearly very little success is getting the talent they do have to be successful
  15. appears that Judge Loose Cannon, a Trump appointee who erroneously tried to appoint a special master to protect Trump in the initial phase of the the MAL investigation, has been assigned the case.
  16. Lordy there are tapes! he stops just short of adding "and i am breaking the law in many ways here: by showing this to you; not returning it; lying about keeping them; and conspiring with others to do the same"
  17. More like a damn dirge But funerals are more fun Force Harris to watch
  18. Fetter's voodoo is just amazing. Batter's hoodoo is not amazing.
  19. i think Cody has written this same article 5 times. the answer is no.
  20. Law has his top 100 list out ($); he thinks it is a very deep, talented draft, including 5 potential #1 picks. Crews 1 and Langford 2, who Law thinks might be a better offensive player, but not as well rounded as he has not looked good in LF. https://theathletic.com/4584350/2023/06/06/mlb-draft-ranking-prospects-2023-crews-law/?source=dailyemail&campaign=601983
