Was really hoping to get SG.   

I have to admit, when I saw the headline I was pissed.  lol 

[interloper]

The fact that Moose put the "source" link and no one clicked it. Genius. 

[Sanity Check]

Okay, you got me.

I would think/hope/pray this means bye bye Kemp. 

Rengifo is a pretty good player.  At least offensively.  Not going to be just a placeholder. 

Urias may be squeezed off the roster here, once Holliday is promoted.  Otherwise, there will be a glut of IFers blocking him (Mayo as well). 

EDIT: 

Wait, is this entire thread a joke or just the part about Mayo being the player involved?

Not cool.

This might be the most realistic April Fools joke ever posted on the Hangout.  Great job, Moose.  You had me hook, line and sinker.  

Wait?  This is an April Fools joke?  I just ordered his jersey.  Curse you Moose!

It’s scary that you can make a link that realistic-looking and have it be a prank.  Makes you realize how careful you have to be these days.

Yea, is it bad that I could see them annoyingly do this ?

That's what makes it so good.  This is certainly the kind of head scratching move they would make, which makes the joke work!

I was alarmed that Elias traded for another MI but not alarmed enough to click Moose's link  I guess that might have came after reading through a few more pages.

The phishing scams are constantly out there in your email.

It was pretty cool.

I was ready to go ballistic about this year's version of Frazier.  Well played.

All a joke (the link in the first post takes you to an April Fools card). I was just playing along with the Mayo comment.
