I can think of one non-standard hire for Michigan who has proven leadership experience

Funny I had the opposite. Loved it during. Less the more I thought.

Juan, if you wanted to play for an NL East team where all the good players leave you could’ve just signed that extension with the Nats.

I’ve been to something like 30-40 movies this year and the number of bad experiences I’ve had along the lines of what you read online is like 2, at kids movies with bored parents and loud kids.

Don’t see the blockbuster at 9pm on a Friday night!

I have faith in The Weed Eater!

Lotta flop sweat at the box office when they’ve gotta put a bobblehead day on for a Yankees game.

How badly do you have to fuck up to breach FIFA ethics codes?

Just visited our nearby university library and was fascinated to learn from a librarian that it's true--students are bombarding them with requests for references that do not exist, the product of ChatGPT and its brethren. "It's a goddamned nuisance," she said. "They don't believe it's all made up."

these guys are turning me into a 1950s dad. shut up, stop whining, and get a real god damn job

Expos? F that.

That substance? Ham.

Five months. Even worse.

Nope!

26 days since the guy who runs the Nats has had their name mentioned here.

Both a comment on the Nats and a comment on this place as a poor substitute.

No, not really. It doesn’t at all.

Unless you’re moving to CF I’d do this one too. (And we don’t need any CFers!)

He’s a bit of a tweener. Bat isn’t good enough to make up for the glove.

And if they’re serious about defense.

Wonder what a full year of Nunez would look like?

Besides /.297/.314

The better question:

Are there things the Nats did that made him worse than his stats appear to be and can other teams correct those to maximize the elite underlying talent?

Yeah McKinsey-ass GM.

Logged onto the bad place and saw this. Would’ve thought we would’ve learned some lessons about building a cult of personality around an Italian GM who talked about the importance of doing it the right way through the farm.

“Some may not even be born yet”

Could also read the part about the “next great Nats team” as a white flag for the next 2-3 years. Ah well. Nevertheless.

“And we commit to having those kids see a team that routinely loses by 2-3 runs, not the 7-10 they’re used to,” he continued.

Trader!

Sure. I mean it’s a fine trade. I’m just not sure that he’s actually going to stick at catcher or have enough of a bat to play anywhere else.

Is he an upgrade? Maybe! I’m not sure that’s a definite though.

The Delgado vote totals here might be even more odd than Kent.

Guess we have some stronger support for Vieques than I thought!

Plus the bat… walk totals are eye popping. But he’s not really hitting for power and he still Ks a lot.

Seems like a veteran pitcher will just knock the bat out of his hand.

So what’s his value? Position change? Less value w whatever offense there then.

What is he?

Now that I’ve read more about it from a few different places I guess I’m a little confused about where Ford fits.

Lots of talk about sub par defense. I don’t know if that’s throwing mechanics or framing. But we’ve seen how that kills a team. Thought fixing that would be a top priority. Is he it?

Big day for lousy mustaches though.
