  1. Everyone seems to think Brady's going to the Raiders but I think he'll be a Jet. He'll have a good defense and an offense where all he really has to do is hand it off and throw to some talented receivers some times. Getting to beat Belichek twice a year certainly doesn't hurt either. Don't sit on the Colts getting ARod. He'd fit right in with what they've been trying to do at QB since Luck retired.
  2. At this point in the offseason there aren't many teams with $7M left to spend.
  3. Ya. I think a good chunk of us here predicted this would happen months ago.
  4. I thought spending money guaranteed a world series victory. At least that's what I read often around here.
  5. The Patriots and Tom Brady have really skewed people's views of what's realistic in terms of winning championships. The Chiefs have won 7 straight division titles and been the #1 or #2 seed 6 of those times and have only won 1 super bowl.
  6. No thanks on Adames unless it's incredibly team friendly. He's not a break the bank kind of player. I'd love to extend either pitcher a few years but that's just not going to happen. Burnes wants and will get a brinks truck full of cash from someone and Woodruff will get a slightly smaller brinks truck.
  7. I've been a Type 1 diabetic for almost 20 years. I've always had great control of it and most of my doctor's have commended me on how well I take care of myself. At the beginning of 2020 I got a CGMS which continuously monitors my blood sugar and sends the number to my phone so I can see it whenever I want instead of having to prick my finger and test my blood. to find out. Since I got it my A1C, which measures your average blood sugar over the last few months, has continually gotten lower (that's a good thing). My last two have been 5.5, which is within the range of a non-diabetic. The higher end but still in the range. I'm a bit obsessive about keeping my blood sugar where it needs to be, probably more so than most diabetics, but every single diabetic needs a CGMS. It will change your life. Fight with your insurance like I did if you have to but get one.
  8. Jay Briscoe of the Briscoe brothers killed in a car accident at age 38.
  9. Meh, whatever, but way too much excitement here over a guy who's been a not good hitter the last two years. I know he's had some injuries so I looked up last year's splits to see if maybe he showed some life toward the end of last season as he healed and nope. His OPS progressively got worse as the season went on and was sub-.600 the last month of the season. Sure, at that price I'll take a gamble he gets back to pre-2021 numbers but more likely he's DFA material by the all star break.
  10. Burnes and his agent know what he wants and they also know the Brewers can't and will never offer it. The Brewers front office have a pretty good idea what Burnes will get on the free agent market and they know they can't and shouldn't offer it. Everyone involved knows the situation here. There's no "hurt feelings" by anyone involved if there is or isn't an effort made by either side to get a deal done because both sides know it's just not going to happen.
  11. I've never heard a positive thing about him so I think he is accurately rated.
  12. Kyle Shannahan is a guy I feel gets ripped on a lot, which I don't get. He's won quite a bit for a guy who's had a never ending rotating cast of mediocre quarterbacks.
  13. If we have the ability to get the call right immediately on every pitch why are we bothering allowing umps to make wrong calls but with the challenge crap? Stop making this so complicated.
  14. If karma got me millions of dollars and I wouldn't have to work a day or worry about money the rest of my life, I'd take that karma any day.
  15. Unless this comes to the majors in 2024 or shortly after, this will make OBP skills translating from the minors to the majors more interesting.
  16. You'll find that generally those that complain about lack of spending use a world series title as the only measure for successful season. So unless the team wins the world series in any given year, those people will always complain about how much (or little) the team spends.
  17. Barry Bonds is a good comp and it just boggles the mind that no team signed him. I don't know what "media circus" there would have been as he'd been accused of steroids for years before his last season. There almost certainly was some sort of league mandate or collusion against him.
  18. Was anyone aware that MLB eliminated protests 2 years ago? I guess it makes sense since umpires can check with the replay center on rules issues during the game but I don't remember ever seeing anything about this when it happened.
  19. I have never once heard the name Greg Brock in my life. No clue who that is.
  20. San Diego Padres - 53 yrs in existence. 2 pennants. 2 WS appearances. 0 WS Rings. Texas Rangers - 50 yrs in existence. 2 pennants. 2 WS appearances. 0 WS Rings. Seattle Mariners - 45 yrs in existence. 0 pennants. 0 WS appearance. 0 WS Rings. Fun game. Here we have 4 teams that have all been around for about the same amount of time with the same level of (lack of) success. The Rangers have made plenty of splashy signings in their history and the Padres are doing that now. Even the Mariners have opened the pocket book a couple times. The Brewers have by far the smallest market and spend the least and yet have the best overall franchise winning percentage of them all. (MIL .484, TEX .475, SEA .473, SD .464). It's almost like spending lots of money doesn't guarantee anything at all.
  21. I got a message through Indeed from an employer asking me to apply for their job. I had actually considered applying for it earlier but decided against because it was just out of range of how far I was willing to travel but if they were interested in me I figured I'd put my name out there and see what happens. Within an hour of applying I got another notification that I was not chosen for the job. I'm not mad I just had to laugh. My resume is visible and they clearly saw it and were interested in me so I have no idea what they were thinking.
  22. Am the only one who would prefer not to sign him to an extension? He just doesn't seem like the kind of player you want to lock in until their mid-30's.

  24. According to the Brewers roster on the MLB app Hader is still on the team.
