Chourio and Frelick. I don't see the Cardinals trading Goldschmidt for anything less than at least two top 100 players. Is Goldschmidt worth that? Heck no he is not but the Cardinals are not going to sell for anything less. -
The Cardinals are not a good team overall. Bad pitching and bad defense with a good offense. Where have we seen this before? It is like the Cardinals copied the Brewers team construction during the early Melvin years.
-
The Bucks are done unless they get a trade they like but I don't believe they will sign anyone of significance in FA. Even before Middleton and Lopez resigned there wasn't going to be much room for a FA signing. This is basically the last run with Giannis.
-
Since they come from the SBA I don't really have a big problem with them though we shouldn't really be giving away money. This also shouldn't be forgiven either. I am fine with taxes where if you borrow from the government either student, business or other types of loans that you would have to pay it back as a tax. I would be fine with that and I think it would actually make the economy stronger if we moved to something like that and just removed all personal income taxes.
-
Because the amount wouldn’t have been worth it for me. It was less than $9k. If it was higher sure but at how much I had left it was better to just pay each month. For the vast majority of people who are bad with financial planning it would have been better for them to continue paying on their student loans when it was at 0%. With all of their payments going to principal it would have reduced their debt amount. On another point if someone wants their student loan debt forgiven I would be all for it if they are willing to pay an extra 5% tax on their income until the loan amount is paid off. This goes against my Libertarian ideals on taxes but I think this would be a simple solution to this issue. The loans still get paid back but are instead paid based on the job you get from your degree.
-
What? All of your payments would have gone to the principal at 0%. You are saving money while paying down the debt. The only way it would make sense is if you were investing all of those payments at a higher rate than your interest rate. Which I doubt more than 1% of the people were doing this. If they made even just half of their regular payments they would have reduced their debt significantly. I continued to pay mine and I just paid all of mine off. All because of the 0%. I cut my final payment date by about 2-years.

@Brock Beauchamp This is like 3 posts in a row where the incorrect Brayden Taylor is being linked to on baseball reference. This is the correct link: https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=taylor010bra

Everyone but Terry Rozier I would be fine with. The Bucks have been interested in Sexton but Utah hasn't really made him available yet. I don't think Portis and Pat/Grayson would really excite the Jazz all that much. Would need to throw in a pick and I am not sure the Bucks are willing to do that or if the Jazz would even like the Bucks pick.
-
Not my idea just some info I was passed along. They did call out the Holiday trade before it happened so maybe there is some truth to this but they told me this before Lopez signed. I don't think this will happen now that Lopez is back on the team and it doesn't look like the Bucks are going to be able to add anyone else other than some veteran and league minimum contracts. They did say the Bucks had no chance in resigning Carter due to the amount of money he was being offered and there was very little interest in bringing Ingles back as he was mostly a Bud player. There is very serious interest in bringing in Wood but that was plan B if Lopez didn't resign. The Bucks have also tried to get Bogdanovic to please Giannis but have been turned down by the Hawks. There is a fear that this is the last run with Giannis as he is up for a contract renegotiation for an extension this fall. The fear is that Giannis will not extend his contract with the Bucks and will not open up negotiations this fall putting the Bucks in a delicate situation in the next two off seasons.

It would be a backup plan for the 76ers missing out on Lillard. Would be Jrue, Connaughton and a pick swap for Harden.
-
Hearing possible Harden to the Bucks scenarios. This would put the Bucks well over the 2nd apron. Not sure the sources are credible though.
-
Lillard has requested a trade and his preferred destination is not Milwaukee. Miami is the likely landing spot for Lillard.
-
Lopez back with the Bucks on a 2-year $48m deal. https://www.fox6now.com/sports/bucks-resign-brook-lopez.amp

You obviously don’t understand basic math let alone odds.
-
The reason the Cardinals have better odds now is because there are more games to be played. Your argument makes no sense at all. Why are you comparing something near the end of the season compared to about the middle of the season? You see the issue with your comparison? Your comparison is just nonsensical.
-
They were only 8.5 games out on September 1st 2011. Which is bigger 11.5 games or 8.5 games back?
-
Actually it was easier for the Cardinals in 2011 the percentages maybe different but the number of teams the Cardinals had to run down for the wild card spot was 1. Right now even with that 3rd wild card spot the Cardinals are 11.5 games behind. On June 30th in 2011 the Cardinals were only 3 games back of the Braves for the Wild Card and were actually tied with the Brewers for the NL Central lead at 44-38. Which is an easier one to come back from 11.5 games behind or 3 games behind?
-
Completely different scenarios. In 2011 they only had to catch the Braves and weren't 14 games under .500.
-
Carter to the Bulls on a 3-year $20m deal. Ingles to the Magic on a 2-year $22m deal. Bucks are rumored to be in on Christian Wood.

Middleton has resigned with the Bucks on a 3-year $102m deal: https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/nba/bucks/2023/06/30/khris-middleton-resign-milwaukee-bucks-3-years-102-million/70369213007/

If he is still available at 33 I would take him then but not at 18. He is just not going to stick at 3B kind of like Braun didn't stick there. Morales does remind me of Braun at least power wise. I like Taylor better at 3B as he will stay at 3B and Taylor has a better hit tool while Morales has a better power tool. Where Taylor wins out over Morales is that Taylor will be able to play 3B in MLB while Morales looks to be a corner OF or a DH.
-
This is a very light return for the Royals and I think this sets up the reliever market for this deadline which is rather low than in past years. The Royals gave up about $7m in value and only received back about $3m in value. This is a huge gamble on Cabrera and Ragans staying healthy (he has had two TJ surgeries already). I don't think the Padres will get much more for Hader who has a higher price tag than Chapman did. This does sound good for the Brewers if they do decide to get a bullpen piece during the deadline.
