Just think about how much an intangible like that is worth!??!!? Oh dude, all that world series experience that made him actively afraid to play against the Dodgers in LA to the point he wanted to retire. He should have just retired. You know... Theo, and Jed too I guess, are amazing at building a farm system and developing talent, but sure is really, really shitty when it comes to signing big contract players. He just seems snakebit when it comes to that. He's only doing his best and he's surrounded by tons of information on each player, but it feels like between Boston and Chicago, he misses more than he hits.

Kuetsar Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 To be fair, when you can sign the guy who blew the World Series by tipping pitches, you have to take it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just sorta different, yeah, that's it! We only urinate on fans and eat the young of opposing teams fans. Seattle fans are little too fishy for my liking. Braves fans...like a slice a heaven. Some heat, but not too overwhelming. The coleslaw and BBQ sauce put it over the top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing about moving to New Mexico from Seattle is that I no longer have to pretend that I give a fuck about the Mariners. I am that nice slice a heaven that you are looking for.

Dolfan in NYC Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Brew Crew is all in, it seems. The Braves are apparently asking again about Realmuto. The Marlins seem content to sit on him until their price is met. And lastly the Manny Machado sweepstakes is apparently down to Philadelphia and Chicago. Bold of the Cubs to add that salar..... wait. *Checks notes* Oh. Well, seems Manny doesn't mind losing a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking "what the hell, I don't want Machado going to the Cubs and it's not going to happen anyway." Choosing the White Sox wouldn't be the dumbest move. That fanbase is in the shitter and attendance for games is too. If Machado doesn't want to stop being an idiot and is chasing the money, the go with the White Sox. There would be way more pressure on him by going to the Phillies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
