  1. They want to be the Cubs. For 108 years, that team was able to put together a roster that was all but eliminated in May, but still sold out every home game from June through October. Heck if they tried to sell tickets on nights there was no game, they could have sold out some of them as well…
  2. So do this mean Trout and Rendon have been healthy all along?
  3. I agree also all fans care more about their team this season. However MLB executives who act that way don’t last long. But a King/Duran trade isn’t selling out the Padres’ future. Duran is in MLB already. Montgomery potentially doing Jordan’s Furniture spots actually is a better selling point than any joke suggests…
  4. Not exactly the LH ex-Yankee we wanted…
  5. True for bWAR, but less fWAR than Kutter Crawford. The bottom line is in that trade that got 6 years of Thorpe, 5 years of Brito, 6 years of Vásquez and 2 years of King. All for one year of Soto. If they actually did deal 2 years of King for 5 years of Duran, that’s actually a good trade for the Padres. And it actually makes the Soto deal look better…
  6. Do you suppose that trading him for two years of Michael King is something they find satisfying? You might be overvaluing King just a tad here. Especially since you think he was the best piece in that deal…
  7. With SD, it’s probably either prospects or get a third team. Unless they figure they’re not going/likely to compete during King’s two seasons with the team…
  8. I agree. They do need Duran but they also need King. They do have 3 Top 100 prospects that are pitchers, but the three have combined for 47 IP above A ball, so there might be no surprises if none of them took a rotation spot either…
  9. Yeah they only have 3 SPs and 2 OFs. They do have 4 open spots on their 40 man. Plus about 4 or 5 pitchers on my DFA Radar…
  10. Sure. Why not?
  11. Hey he listened to me on Tyler O’Neill, didn’t he?
  12. Have faith, my son. As Tolkien once prophesized, we shall see The Return of the King…
  13. Someplace in one of these threads I suggested the Padres should be interested in Jarren Duran. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/02/padres-trade-rumors-jarren-duran-red-sox-free-agents-lorenzen-ryu-lauer.html
  14. And AJ Puk!!
  15. Can you imagine if the Sox DFAd Jacques and then didn’t bring back Montgomery or Snell?
  16. No mention of the Sox as front runners, however…
  17. Probably for someone not on the 40 man. Otherwise if the Sox sign Montgomery, they’d have to DFA Joe Jacques…
  18. Winner of the Most Talked About Minor League Contract Ever Award...
  19. That seems to be the universally agreed-upon plan to improve the defense, so why not? It's probably easier to coach a player into being a better pitcher than it is to making him a better defender...
  20. Jim Willoughby, Dick Drago, and Reggie Cleveland…
  21. You would be correct. Using a current or even inactive member of this forum might not always go over well…
  22. There might be a few others who recall him. Definitely a small scale (and very harmless) inside joke...
  23. A reference to another forum that Bellhorn should recall...
  24. (praying) Please let him use BlargyBlarg. Please let him use BlargyBlarg.
  25. Apples and oranges have a lot in common. Both are round, roughly the same size. Both are classified as fruit. Both have inedible seeds on the inside. Both are colored with red to some degree. Both are frequently juiced. Heck, you often find them near each other in the supermarket. If you need to express how different two things are, maybe try apples and basketballs. Or apples and aluminum siding. Now THOSE things are different...
