Without relitigating everything that was wrong with Avila, it wasn't an issue of his not pushing us into a full rebuild—after all, we lost 98, then 98, then 114 games in consecutive years on this watch—it's that he didn't know what the hell to do once we got there. Putting a loser on the field is the easiest thing to do in big league baseball, and Avila was among the best at that. But yes, we are now in the post-Avila rebuild, but I promise you we're going to get out of this one a lot a lot faster (although TBF, any amount of time is faster than never). Harris is rebuilding correctly right now, and we were so deep in the **** that it was never not going to take time. All you have to do is live through it.

In time, my friend. In time.

Look who's #3! 3. Isaac Paredes, 3B/1B, Rays Positional ranking: No. 1 Bat Age: 25 Contract status: Owed $1.1 million in 2024, then arbitration eligible through 2027 First-half stats: .261/.364/.459/.823, 15 HR, 50 RBI, 3.0 WAR Likelihood of being dealt: 🔴 Would the Rays trade a 25-year-old All-Star under team control through 2027? It’s going to take a gigantic prospect package to even get the conversation going, but if history is any indication, Tampa Bay is always open for business if the price is right, and Isaac Paredes’ salary will rise substantially beginning in 2025. His inclusion on this list is perhaps a moot point, but if Paredes were made available he’d be the market’s top combination of present value and future team-controlled upside as a right-handed slugger around whom lineups can be built. Potential landing spots: SEA, LAD, NYY Review posts from spring 2022 to be reminded how little people here thought of Paredes. https://www.motownforums.com/search/?&q=paredes&search_and_or=or&start_after=1648771200&start_before=1656547200

Found the receipt!

Nothing diverse, equitable or inclusive about her. 100% nepo hire.

Definitely closeted. Who knows whether he was behind the six children and seven miscarriages his poor wife went through.

lol valid questions

Is Matt Walsh an American? Any proof of that?

Full disclosure: Matt Walsh (born June 18, 1986)[1][2] is an American right-wing political activist, author, podcaster, and columnist.[3] He is the host of The Matt Walsh Show podcast and is a columnist for the American conservative website The Daily Wire. He has authored four books and starred in The Daily Wire online documentary film What Is a Woman?. ... Walsh's views have mainly been described as right-wing[68][3][69][70][71] and conservative,[60][72][73][74] but also as far-right.[75][76][77] His commentary is sometimes described by media outlets as trolling or provocation.[78][79][80][39] He labels himself a "theocratic fascist" in his Twitter biography,[81][82] which he said was an ironic response to an opponent using the label as an insult.[83] Walsh has argued that the trial of Kenosha unrest shooter Kyle Rittenhouse, who was acquitted, was malicious prosecution.[84] He has argued for banning pornography and supports restricting abortion.[85] Walsh has argued that ozone depletion and acid rain were never serious problems, in tweets that Ars Technica described as "willfully ignoring some very well-documented history".[86] Walsh believes that cannabis should not be legal. He believes that it is more dangerous than alcohol and tobacco, and that it causes violence.[87][88][89] Regarding the casting of Halle Bailey in the live-action version of The Little Mermaid (2023), Walsh said on The Daily Wire, "from a scientific perspective, it doesn't make a lot of sense to have someone with darker skin who lives deep in the ocean," and suggested that the mermaid should be translucent instead. Walsh's commentary was mocked on CNN by digital senior entertainment writer Lisa France, who said "racism is real, unfortunately, and people get so offended".[90] Later, Walsh said that "Translucent rights are human rights".[91] He jokingly called anime "satanic" in an answer to viewers' questions in one of his videos, adding "I have no argument for why it's satanic. It just seems that way to me."[92][93] He has called multiculturalism a "failed experiment".[94][third-party source needed]. ... Walsh is an opponent of the LGBT rights movement and the LGBT community, in particular the transgender rights movement and the idea of being transgender in general.[13][95] In February 2021, after a Gallup poll showed a sharp increase of people who identify as LGBT, especially bisexual and transgender, in Generation Z compared to previous generations, Walsh accused "the media, Hollywood, and the school system" of “recruiting” children into the LGBT community. Other commentators quoted by PinkNews argued that Walsh was wrong, attributing the increase to different factors, including an easing of social stigmas among younger people.[96] Shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, Walsh accused President Joe Biden of feminizing the U.S. military and recruiting lesbians who he said "can't do three pushups", and said that it was "not a coincidence that [Russia's invasion] happened after Biden spent his first year in office focusing primarily on wokeness".[97]

The Biden Administration is running the country at the moment. Same as they have since January of 2021.

Imagine the tears that will flow when Biden is thanked at the DNC after a stirring video.

feature not bug

see you raise you

That’s obviously a clear threat.

Me! I am!

With my luck I'd be the one guy getting caught!

Well thank you.

Or Idaho. Bert? 😉

A lot more bubbles in Oklahoma than I would expect to see.

Well, there goes my vote for Harris. Nahhh, only kidding. My vote for Harris doesn't matter because Illinois is already in the bag for Democrats.

Throwing almost three million dollars at a lottery ticket seems insane to me.

Well, yeah, you're right, there is that. We were never going to be legitimate playoff contender unless everything broke the right way, meaning, no injuries, and no horrible underperformances. But, as you said, we had injuries to Mize and now Olson, but also, injuries to Carpenter and Meadows (lately), earlier injuries to Urshela and Baez and Faedo and Ibanez, horrible underperformances by Tork and Lange and Maeda and Meadows (earlier), the slightly less horrible underperformance by Manning, and the ongoing awfulness that has been Baez. Top that with the fact that no one of our bullpen has shutdown closer ability, and Scott Harris would have to be flat out incompetent to believe that a trade for a veteran would put us in a good position to make the playoffs.

Of course, but I would be honestly floored if he were to make any trades of minor leaguers for major leaguers to get there.
