What do you all think we should do with Lopez?  I know he cant pitch for us in the post season.  But he is a free agent after the season.  Is this correct?  I say we should offer him a minor/major league contract and let him prove he can get people out in Norfolk and then we might bring him up.  

I'm sure the Os would like him back but not on a ML deal.  Need to save 40-man space for the keepers.

I still have the Jim Palmer poster that hung on my bedroom wall as a kid

He is a FA in '25. He will need to be DFA and then passed through waivers. I figured we would keep him and try to fix him, otherwise would have just made sense to pursue minor league contract in the off-season. Then again, neither plan makes a whole lot of sense.

It looks like Means is chummy with the umpire.  That's good - could come in handy on future calls

This one?

[Gurgi]

I was just looking at Google News on my phone and they have an article showing Adley and Gunnar are under the weather the day after winning East title and it shows them doing a beer bong with the homer hose.  LOL.  I guess no one thinks they are really sick.

It was rumored today that Gibson was watching the celebration via video call because he was sick. If that's really true, there might be something going around the clubhouse. Hopefully not Covid.

How long does Hyde let Means go tonight?  5 innings?

That's not the one

I gotta say, Means is really impressing me...I was a hair reluctant to believe the outing he had in Cleveland...but he's getting sharper and sharper and may well be a major starter for us in the post season...this is huge...
