Just sign Bryant and be done with it. However, I like that K from LSU.

He very quietly did great things with his charity after his playing days were over.

I'm assuming it has to do with the foreign substance found on his glove.

This post is so good, I don't even mind the self like.

Yep, in this case it deserves it.

Please put Modzilla back on life support and end this nonsense.

Kelenic got promoted to AA today.

Not very often do you see triples on balls hit to left/center.

I can't wait to see him as a 19yo at SB.

Stuff like this continues to be said, and I continue to be unmoved. It's [expletive]. The next Dem majority will see all these furrow-browed GOPers (current and former) rally around pols like Romney, Sasse and Haley. The capitulating will be forgotten. https://twitter.com/gabeschoenfeld/status/1155...

Unless your dad did some terrible things leading to this, your best thing to do is be the Swiss and be neutral as hard as that might be. The only thing worse than ending a relationship is remaining in an unhappy one. Obviously I don't know the parameters but you have to support each other and if tha...

He said best since Prior. That's not really comparing him to Prior. It's not really that high of praise, either, unless I'm forgetting someone really obvious. Best Cubs pitching "prospect" I can think of from 2002-now is like...Rich Hill? Cashner? Samardzija? Hendricks obviously turned ou...

I'm hopefully forgetting someone but Marquez might be the best pitching prospect since Prior (Willis rose with Florida).

So Russell at his worst is as good as Garcia at his best? Robel over his last 10 games .214 with a .233 OBP what happens when every hit stops being a XBH after they stop throwing him FB like they have since his last HR. You guys are blinded by the DV stuff with Russell, but he's 100% one of our bes...

He's 100% better than 2 of them and a better SS than Javy In July Garcia has a 1.020 OPS to Russell's .723. That's a bigger sample size and a much bigger margin. Also Jon Lester has a 1.400 OPS in July. Arbitrary sample sizes are fun. i know you are being sarcastic but arbitrary sample sizes that m...

Any guesses for the AFL?

Nico
Thompson or Little
Lange
Short
Kelly
Amaya
Hatch

Jose Lopez of the DSL would have 218 BBs in 500ABs at his current pace.

Lange with the nice magic trick tonight of giving up 7 unearned runs lowering his ERA to under 3. Marginal pitcher getting by on smoke, mirrors, and bad defense. What is Lange's stuff nowadays? Just a couple years ago he was a 1st round pick in the college WS with a solid fastball, a great curve ba...

There's no reason for him not to be. You currently have non-prospects(like Daniel) playing 2b beyond High-A.

I'm all for Slaughter going as well with Reynolds sinking or swimming at High A.

You have older Of'ers in Eugene as well but...

Unless Ivy found some hidden value in bad middle infielders, they're better off keeping that number at 2 and not 3.

This. Please don't ruin the only forum worth following.

Bernie's plan is just to cancel all current student loan debt and is far less thought out. https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamminsky/2019/06/27/how-do-warrens-and-sanders-student-loan-forgiveness-plans-compare/#26c61a8618c4 It still fails to address those who don't want to go to college who are likel...

What's the down side of eliminating student debt? Who loses? Student debt punishes young people in the poor and middle class. The kids of the rich don't have to deal with debt after going to Yale or Harvard that they only got into based on family legacy. It's another way to punish lower income peop...

This is horse horsefeathers. Student debt is practically a necessity to achieve the "American Dream". Republicans are trying to get rich on the backs of the poor. People with student debt have it because they were trying to better their lives through education. If I vote for someone stric...

Warren is awesome and my #1 choice, but her plan won't pay off my entire amount. I don't regret my decision and am paying them down on my own. But truthfully I wouldn't be upset if Bern stuck around long enough that some of the other front-runners besides Warren start to adopt something close to hi...

One can only hope this means they're done shopping at the Dollar Tree for positional help.
