Quebecios? Is that two people named Quebecio? 😉

FWIW, CAD is the official international designation for Canadian currency.

Sure, all the players will get paid in US dollars, but Canadian businesses doing business in Canada operate under the Canadian dollar, and if the value of CAD goes down, so does the value of the business. SCA: is that the Specialty Coffee Association Canada Chapter? Because that’s the main result when i search for whatever the hell that means. https://scacanada.coffee/

Allons-y Expos! (Don’t pronounce that final “s”, though.)

Sure, why not? I don’t care about Salt Lake, mainly because I know they’re going to choose a stupid minor-leaguey-type name. But I’m hoping against hope the Nashville private equity corp retains the Nashville Sounds name. Probably less than 10% chance they do. It may not even be in the consideration set. It’ll probably be the Nashville Thundering Turtles or something equally idiotic.

It also would not go over well with the other owners since less money would be flowing into the game. Flip side: contract, then re-expand into those contracted markets after a number of years. Instant windfall.

Maybe. If it’s not Salt Lake, then it would probably be Portland since they’d need a western team to balance out Nashville. But Portland is not really a sit-still-and-watch-something-in-the-summer kind of town. People move to Oregon to explore their incredible, practically unmatched outdoors environment. It’s likely a reason minor league baseball has failed multiple times there. If they build a small stadium (high 20s), under the assumption vast majority of the revenue comes from outside the stadium during game time, it would probably help the optics.

Nashville and Salt Lake.

You got it.

Related to this, I really really hate looking up stats on Reference and seeing ATH instead of OAK.

Good thing there was never a chance we were going to sign him. That would have been an Avila move.

See, this is the one you’d trade a top five not named Clark or McGonigle for. I’m not sure the Marlins are all that savvy when it comes to prospect trades.

Hopefully by other GMs.

Scott? Is that you? I can’t see Harris giving up either Clark or McGonigle, both Top 12 MLB prospects according to Pipeline, for a reliever with control problems who’s having a down year. FWIW, I also can’t see Harris adding a close-to-the-end-of-the-line veteran with an injury history and who’s due another $90 or so million into a clubhouse that relies partially on the bonhomie of scrappy kids playing to make a career for themselves, especially when deGrom would cost us at least two top 5 prospects. That’s going to be the starting bid to get deGrom from the Rangers, a team who recently won a pennant and is still within view of the playoffs this year.

Vest hadn’t pitched for three days so he needed the work. Gotta get him trigger time at some point and there’s no guarantee it’s going to be close and late tomorrow, either.

Just when I thought I was out on this game, they pull me back in and break my heart.

Parker Meadows singles home a run! Men on first and third, one out, score is 9-6. Now Baez drives in a run on the ground out to third, so score is now 9-7, two out, still one on, and tying run still at the plate.

You might be right! Eighth inning, two on, one out, Tigers down 9-5. Stay tuned …

All due respect, if you don’t mind, I’d like to hear from the guy making the claim. If you as a third party step in to answer requests like mine with responses like this, it lets the claimant off the hook to back up his claim.

I’m not sure what I am looking at in this link. Can you lead me to the part that confirms that there was a final order of deportation for Garcia? Because that’s not on the page anywhere that I can see.

I saw a video from CNN in which Garcia was being interviewed by the cop, then cut to the cop making a claim to a camera that some unnamed “he” is “running” eight people in the van, and then he speculates about finding toothbrushes on them. What’s missing from the video is an arrest, or at least the cop confronting Garcia about the people. if this is such a smoking, hot gun, why aren’t those elements included in the video? The video also states that the Tennessee state police flagged this stop to federal law-enforcement, who did not follow up to arrest Garcia. I don’t see any evidence of a crime being committed here on the video. What are we missing here?

I’ve been googling “did garcia have a final deportation order” and I’m coming up dry. Can you share a source with us?

No worries, a regimen of ivermectin will get those red hats back on their hooves in no time.

Show us this evidence.

They have voodoo dolls of us. We’re done here.
