I'm 28 and can't stand how most websites post videos instead of articles now. I would rather read an article over watching a video any day.

I have been going through some old stuff. I have newspapers from Cal's 213,  etc. I love the Internet but a part of me misses the old days. 

Everything anymore is just a sound bite or video clip.

I wouldn't blame DD if he opts out of his contract. The organization is a mess. If i were a GM  I couldn't work for Mr. Angelos. 

How do you opt-out of a contract?

I agree, it does cut down on the number of sites I need to check.

Twitter and CBSsports are all I check now.  And CBS is on thin ice.

Indeed. Video and slideshow sites are always out.

It's because they can't spell.

Writing standards have gone way down.

While selling get Espinosa to play SS.

I'm younger than that and I hate the overuse of videos too. Of course, what's even worse is sites that have the videos set to autoplay. You will be half way down the first paragraph and suddenly you just hear some guy start talking...awful.

I want all SPs in this thing. If somebody has a position player prospect to trade, take him and flip him for an SP. They have to go all out in this thing. Also, nobody in the bullpen should be off limits including Givens. The greatest bullpen in the world is worthless when you're down 6-0 in the 3rd inning every night.

No need to buy at all. Just get prospects.

I believe Dan believes it. Up to PA.

Well half a firesale is better than no firesale at all I suppose. The best years for these 3 relievers are behind them, IMO.

I'm on board with this approach. I would have to be blown away by an offer for Givens though, given his talent, potential, and years of control.
