Tell that to Claire McCaskill, Bill Nelson, Joe Donnelly, and Heidi Heitkamp.

Too late. My annual subscription runs through December. I don't see myself renewing, nor do I see it being worthwhile to at that point. The list of departures is pretty amazing.

Glenn Kessler leaving Wapo might be its death knell.

I know this was a joke but for those curious, the maximum it can be was $100k. It is likely between $50k and $100k, because 50 is the waiver price and this deal bypasses waivers.

Was this a joke?

March 2029 after adults are put back in place. Nothing is going to happen here. Jizzy is going to work with his syndicate to get everything swept under the rug.

Two more promotions to Toledo without corresponding moves, meaning there are likely two more pitchers hurt that haven't been officially logged on the IL. They are four over the roster limit right now, so there are four players unavailable that we don't know about... which is why the Hartlieb's and Jackson's are coming up.

No idea on Schiefelbein. He hasn't even been reported to be on the IL, but has been out since May. He was not on the late May injury report the org put out. Wilson, Dickerson, Swanson, and Massey all had UCL Surgery (might be internal brace or TJ). As mentioned, Hall had stress reaction in his shoulder as of the late May report. He has since been moved to the 60-Day IL. This is the most recent update. There should be another soon.

If the Education Department still needs a figure head, I feel handling kids is right up here alley for these people.

This reeks of the DOJ acting as his personal attorney getting her to say he was not involved.

Tyler Owens is on a rehab assignment in Lakeland. Prior to that, his injury list placement hadn't been reported. There's at least one more player in Toledo on the IL who hasn't been reported. The Mud Hens intern has been asleep at the wheel on transaction reporting this year. If you were wondering why Hartlieb got the call yesterday...

Seems procedural. None of them got in the game yesterday, and I haven't seen any corresponding roster moves to get under the Domestic Reserve limit, which this puts them about 10 over.

Not that this has stopped him before, but the President can't fire the Fed Chair.

I doubt it. Tigers had last priority and he made it that far, and hasn't upped his value since. He probably isn't opting out of $1.1M guaranteed to try to latch on somewhere on a split contract.

This is not how waivers work. Hernandez will go through waivers (unless he is traded before), and if he clears, the Tigers can outright him. A player outrighted does not re-sign. Now, Hernandez is a bit unique, in that he does have enough service time to declare free agency, but that would require him forfeiting the rest of his guaranteed contract, which is well beyond what he would get if he hit the open market. In short, I think you meant to say he will accept the outright assignment, which is true.

Bigbie? The guy who moved back a level and has been passed up repeatedly for promotion? He's more likely to be cut by next year's opening day than graduate to the bigs.

Riley Greene getting benched in this scenario?

Hamm and Rainer are.

Tyler Freeman has negative WAR this year. Not sure where "stud" comes from.

Not sure why the Pirates are giving up a top prospect for a veteran piece and two injured prospects. Seems self-defeating and the type of thing that would cause the Pirates front office to block 313 area codes if offered.

Hell no even if allowed.

The league because I don't think the three injured players can be traded.

Nm. You had Oliveto right, but Witherspoon is $1,448,700 which explains the $200.

BA had Oliveto at 2,459,500. I can double check later, but something else is off between our calcs as well (only 200 dollars off).
