Matt leaving team this weekend

If only there was already an existing thread for paternity leave.

If only thread titles could be more carefully considered. I mean, he is leaving the team..............permanently, like a divorce? Figured it was something like this that I should have probably already known, but still.

Haha, that was awesome, sounds like she may actually have a singing voice. Nice.

Thanks, I love her voice. I think she has good pitch. She's actually more interested in drumming now. Too shy to sing in person. I put my small kit in her room and she's taken off with it. I'm going to let her sit in with me and her sister (bassist) at a Labor Day party. Looking forward to getting her feet wet with performing.

She came up with that Francisco song on her own. I laughed and laughed.

I saw it on Twitter earlier.

Hadn't read anything about it until this thread, but not surprised I missed it.

Musical family, nice. My daughter can play the violin and piano, but that is about it for us and really for our family even that is saying something!

    • Smith and Bowman signed Milb contacts, stop period. which means if they not have 6 years MLB service they make minor league money if they are in the minors. Albert signed a one guarenteed contract, 740k. Itwas A Milb contract to keep him off the 40. Even if he got DFA or never pitched one inning of MLB he still makes the 740k. He was good enough to demand this contract and get it. Smith and Bowman were not.
    • Just because you sign as a free agent doesn’t mean you aren’t subject to the rules around 6 years of service time. For instance, I don’t believe Burch Smith or Matt Bowman can elect free agency unless they are outrighted, released, or non-tendered. However, there are examples of foreign professionals being eligible to elect free agency early - for example Shintaro Fujinama last year.  It’s not part of the CBA, but presumably the commissioner will approve that special covenant as part of an FA deal if the player has at least 6 years of experience in foreign league.  It’s possible they would let Suarez combine his 1 year MLB service time (prior to this season) with his 3 years in NPB and 2 years in KBO.  And it’s possible they let Suarez write these terms into an MILB contract that had split MLB terms.  It wouldn’t have been my starting assumption, but it seems plausible.
    • Here I am checking in. We and our condo on the east side of Asheville made it through unscathed. On Tuesday we flew into DC and moved into a hotel in Falls Church. Our son, Eric, ordered us to make that trip and made all the arrangements because we had no internet and limited cell service. We expected to stay a week while electricity is restored and then we learned about the dire water situation. We are moving in with Eric and his family who have been supporting us in every way possible, anticipating needs and things that would help us. Our daughter, Robyn, and her husband, Ken live about 30 miles west of Asheville , Waynesville, had no damage, never lost power or water. Today they rescued my car from $30 a day hourly parking, threw out everything that was beginning to make the condo stink and tied up  a few ends we left loose when we left Dodge in a hurry. They are, collectively, the loving, supportive family everyone should want and have .
    • You should really try to read. It will make you less slow.
    • Just pointing out that not everyone wanted Adley extended last year. 
    • Hopefully he will spend money to keep guys long term.    This was a puff piece. 
    • At least Joe Jackson seemed to be a decent human.
