Not sure if Daniels skipping is good or bad for my dream of Washington picking him and leaving my favorite prospect Drake Maye to us. Come on Washington, do this one for me and I’ll even go along with your stupid name change.

I mean, think of it like the 2021 rotation - Eovaldi was very good, but basically they won 92 games because nobody was a disaster. Richards and Perez kept their offense in the game, the back end of the bullpen (Sawamura, Josh Taylor) pulled its weight, and they stayed in position to steal Kyle Schwarber from the Nationals. Of course, the 2021 team was second in baseball in slugging. This team is going to need to prevent more runs to get to 92 wins than that team did, but the staff might actually be better on paper. The problem I have with the staff is right in your best case scenario, you called them versatile. They have 2 guys who are legit starters in Giolito and Bello and I actually do love both of them as players. But then you have 4 guys who probably work better as relievers and then two more of those multiple inning relivers kinds in Fitts and Mata, if all breaks well. It feels like they have too many moving parts. This feels a bit too new age for me in the current day of openers and I'm not against it, but I wouldn't call the group deep at all. I do think they can be adequate like they were in 2021, but I struggle to think how can they be more than that unless everyone goes supernova. |

What I'm really pissed off at, is the Warriors ruining the start of our run because they went crazy for years. Jordan Poole becoming a superstar during that series will never not annoy me. |

This reads like an euphemism for "a bunch of middling pitchers". Hence the risk portion ("full of swingmen and tweeners") of my post! Oh I missed thar, sorry lol. And I didn’t mean to sound dickish, but it doesn’t feel like a best case scenario to have a DEEP staff because even if guys outperform, it still leaves you with an adequate staff. To me this is like saying the best case scenario for Casas is hitting 100 HRs. It’s technically possible, but let’s not get crazy lol. |

Good for Devers, anyone defending ownership at this point is delusional and deserve the last place finish we're bound to get.

Did we ever get more info on why the Bucks fired Griffin? Did Giannis really force him out or did the team management just panic? What a disaster that’s been. Doc saying there’s guys in Cabo was absolutely fantastic and pure cinema. |

Sure, let’s not get any really good players and trade away one of the few we have. What could possibly go wrong?

Honestly I don’t think they should add anyone else after the Tillman trade. This team is absolutely loaded.

The Porzingod is an awesome player, but he has been atrocious at the glass.

Someone, somewhere is unironically posting this right now. Someone, somewhere is signing free agents. |

Has anyone else heard the rumors that Fox is going to pair Brady with Bill Belichick and Taylor Swift to add drama and appeal to a wider audience? Brady going to bang that. |

Pedro Martinez' year as a reliever for the Dodgers was arguably better than his next three years as a starter. After four years, the bullpen was arguably "where he had his best season." Then he took his Great Leap Forward Right, we should use Pedro as the baseline for pitchers development. |

Strong, gritty win. This team is very good without The Porzingod, but they badly need him to stay healthy to chip.

I've maintained even since the crying that KC was going to win it all and Kelce was going to propose during the ceremony. Brock Purdy is now the only man standing between us and that soap opera atrocity. |

They did win, which was nice, but I didn’t watch the OT after thinking they looked pretty dead in the 3rd. Nice to win even when clearly exhausted.

Why did the Bucks fire Griffin? So they can hire Doc Rivers and tank any chance they had! |

The free throw shooting isn’t something, I’d call a minor problem at all. It’s potentially an Achilles heal come playoff time. Them at the line to clinch a playoff game should be automatic and we are all going to be expecting a miss. That’s at least progress to what we had up until last year, which was Marcus Smart from the 3 point line. |

McDaniels has a way with QB’s. He’s good at developing them. He was also Brady’s OC. If he doesn’t join BB, I could see him here in that role. I wonder what Mayo thinks. I really like McDaniels, but he needs someone to bitch slap him when he gets too cute. Is Mayo that guy? Bill was that guy, but Bill was the GOAT. |
