  1. I think that most times you can have a position player pitch an inning and not give up four runs.
  2. O's could have kept Machado. They brought Davis back and extended guys like Hardy and O'day instead.
  3. No he's not. He's the employee. A player just dropped him as representation this week.
  4. The agent works for the player. If the player wants to maximize earnings that is what the agent looks to do. If the player wants long term security at an early stage of the process that is what the agent will do. If a player wants to play for team X for life, the agent tries to make that happen. Schoop was a Boras client and he wanted to sign multi-year extension with the Tigers. He got one.
  5. So the player that just dropped Boras for Bad Bunny doesn't want to make any money?
  6. The player still gets paid. If the player that "cuts" the team gives back all the remaining salary I could see your point. As it is you get players who sign big deals with teams and then within a short period of time force trades in which the team trading them gets a fraction of their value. I don't really follow the NBA so that is my take and may not be wholly accurate.
  7. I'm all for free agency but yea, once you sign a contract you should honor it.
  8. You also have a situation in the NBA in which the players have considerably more power than in MLB. Players can effectively force a team to move them, sometimes even picking the destination.
  9. Givens any day now. The way Tate is throwing you don't want him.
  10. I could swear I've read an article about this but it was years ago and I may be hallucinating. Let me see if I can dig something up.
  11. Mountcastle is like Man, you go through some cold streaks.
  12. Yes, I'm aware. They aren't Scottish. That was their big push in the US after Quiet Riot had big hits with a couple of Slade covers.
  13. They are the band from Wolverhampton that had a number of hits.
  14. Whenever I meet a Kiss fan I make sure to introduce them to Slade. Which is like Kiss but earlier and better.
  15. You can use a FM bluetooth transmitter that works off the cigarette lighter.
  16. Y'all need to pick a streaming service. I haven't heard an Kiss song in a decade.
