Too bad Trea is gone, or we could rub his nose in that Fielder data. But I'll wait another year before declaring victory.

With Trea, you could point to a black wall, and he would insist that it's white ........ and he'd make all sorts of assertions/arguments as to why the wall is indeed (in his mind) white, while driving at least a few posters up a wall to the point where they would scream at him repeatedly, to no avail.

I'm happy with the "Trea is gone" portion of your statement, in and of itself.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      “Dramatics”? That’s an interesting way of framing my opinion. I promise you I am as calm and cool as a cucumber. There’s no “dramatics” going on here. As you know, numbers fluctuate during any given period of time in the season. Good/great players have bad/cold stretches and bad/terrible players have good stretches. IMO we do not possess the type of top end talent at the back end of the bullpen needed to win multiple rounds against the best opposition in October.  If you are confident in Cano/Kimbrel or worse in Vespi/Baker/Perez/etc getting Soto and Judge out in a big spot late in the game in Yankee stadium in October, that is fine. I am not.  Just as an observer of baseball, Holmes is a much better pitcher than any reliever that we have. I would be much more confident in his talent than any reliever that we have. Now if we had Felix that would be one thing. But this season we do not. And I would hate for a team as good as ours to be held back by not making the needed/necessary move(s) before we get into October.  IMO we did that last season (with the starting pitching) and it didn’t end well. And I acknowledge that everybody doesn’t think like me nor have the same championship expectations/aspirations. Some fans/posters here have stated as much and that they are happy if we have a winning team year after year or if we just make it into the tournament year after year, regardless of results when we get there. And that’s fine. That’s just not my desired outcome. The great thing about this board is that we don’t have to agree and are able to express our opinions.

      Over/under on the number of times we walk Judge and Soto in this series?   10?  Nobody else really worries me.

      I'm going to need photographic evidence the head cheerleader is hot.  This is a totally scholastic endeavor.

      He's elite in 17 other high school intramural sports and is dating the head cheerleader, so no issue.
