Was Ole Red on B.com?

 

Maybe under a different name but it’s more just the back and forth like y’all had with the one poster you constantly called a clown…haha. It’s entertaining to me . I could read that banter for days.

Im in the sell camp now and I don't see the next couple of weeks changing that.

Must trade: Chapman, Gray

Willing to trade: Whitlock, Abreu, Durbin

Have to be overwhelmed:  Contreras, Early

When it comes to Duran, he has little to no value, might as well and see if he can right the ship and increase his value this offseason.

softlaw the clown?

Others called him worse.

Those were the days, for sure. Having rings scattered between the years helped.

One of the best songs has this ending...

Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you'd want what I want
Sorry, my dear
But where are the clowns?

Don't bothеr, they're herе

Quick, send in the clowns

Durbin is a name I really haven’t heard yet. For what we gave up for him, and considering how he’s playing, I’d throw him in the have to be overwhelmed section…but that’s just me. I really like his game now that he’s got things right again. Rather see him at 2b though

At least he didn't make up positions other held and knew how to read.

Or is a phony, fraud, or flip flopper who portrays the man behind the curtain like yourself, and that’s the bottom line, because Stone Cold says so. As always it’s a gift, and not a curse.

I haven't thought about Durbin at 2b due to the lack of 3b in next years free agent class, but what if San Francisco made Schmitt available? you could have Mayer and Durbin battle it out at 2b, Arias up around May 1st, a couple key free agent acquisitions and suddenly you have a Major League line up.

We can actually add any position player to get the big bat we need, and hopefully we get 2 or 3 of 'em.

The only blocked position is 1B, and he turns 35 next May. One could DH for a year or two or share 1B/DH.

I'm assuming we trade or bench Duran,Story and Yoshida for 2027, so that frees up OF/DH, too.
