This guy is replacing Muskat

Sounds like Sonny Gray is close to getting traded

Kluber is INSANELY good. The Indians, if they traded him, would receive an absolute HAUL. His last 5 seasons? Over 200 innings each year. 31 fWAR. Seriously, THIRTY ONE. 32.6 bWAR. I mean....... horsefeathers lol. The Indians can and would do much better than anything we've got to offer, that start...

That's freaky.

Somewhere, Minnesota’s buddy just got another idea of a feature to add to his sex club

Bryce, if you’re reading this, please sign ASAP so we can stop talking about horsefeathering pizza

If the Mariners are tearing it down, why would they trade for an arb eligible headliner in Schwarber? Especially for Diaz, who would garner tons of interest and Seattle could define the shape of the return. Dipoto always likes the half ass it between competing and rebuilding is my only rebuttal bec...

Because Cruz/Schwarber would be awesome

Cruz is a FA

https://twitter.com/EricFisherSBJ/status/1063106249141706752?s=19 I know there are some concerns about the Cubs' tv deal given the alleged money crunch this winter, but this is certainly a very positive sign. Yeah I posted basically this in the Sports Media thread when Jersey posted a similar tweet...

Yeah I don’t think we are anywhere near a full time team there. Maybe a random series or 3 moved there during the year or like doing this Japan Series thing there in the offseason, but I don’t think we are close to a full time team working there.

If the national deal got a healthy bump, hopefully that means whatever we are trying to pull off with our TV deal isn’t totally horsefeathers.

My buddy just said he saw a rumor on ESPN about Schwarber and Azlolay for Edwin Diaz. Even being a huge Schwarber fan, contingent on making a big offensive free agent signing, I...don't hate it? I’d probably do that. Especially if Bryce is in play and if they’d take Kintzler or Duensing back in the...

They should announce Bryce right as Yelich is announced MVP tonight

Who says no? 1 of Schwarber/Happ, Q, Kintzler and a prospect (I’d include Adbert personally) for Kluber. Reasoning is the Indians are apparently strapped/not wanting to spend. They didn’t even offer Brantley the QO because they couldn’t fit that $ in if he accepted. Kluber is owed $1.5 million more...

Who benefits from 25 different seating options? PTR from being able to price tier more appropriately obv How many different prime/premium game price structures are layered over the 25 seating sections? Is this the PTR version of 4D chess? Switching the portion of the former 400 level to new 300 lev...

I’m surprised it took this long for an active/long thread to be derailed by pizza talk

I'm seeing talk of Trump getting kicked out of the presidency by the 25th amendment lately, and I think it would be smart of the Republicans to do this before the new House gets sworn in if they do it at all. They don't want to elevate Nancy Pelosi to the VP spot and still have to deal with a Dem s...

I really only remember South Park being something I was told I couldn’t watch (parents were fine with the Simpsons). I also had to buy the edited version of CDs (I remember having the edited version of The Marshall Mathers LP And Stankonia when I was in like 5th or 6th grade, I also might just have ...

https://twitter.com/jorgecastillo/status/1062088096999591936?s=21 $17M for a 32-year old starting pitcher who hasn’t topped 130 innings in any of the last 6 seasons seems a bit steep. He was really good for them this year once he got healthy. But yeah, glad they got stuck with that LT hit and it’s ...

15 day window for what?

In this scenario, I'd rather sign Bryce Harper for the same type of deal and team him with KB for three years and get the single draft pick for Bryant if he leaves. Heck, worst case, team them together for two seasons and trade KB for a lesser prospect package than you'd get now, but still a solid ...

Based on trading Bryant though. I can see the “trade your elite third baseman for prospects and eat it to” logic, but I don’t like the idea of trading Bryant after what was by far his worst season, and I don’t like Machado over Bryant going forward. Bryant at less money, shorter term > Machado + pr...

I think they’re good, but I don’t see them beating the Saints, Rams (both on the road) and an AFC team (Chiefs/Pats let’s assume) 3 straight games and that’s assuming beating the Panthers/Vikings most likely in WC weekend.
