They're internment camps for political prisoners. Call them what they are!

It's probably be these are the same type of people you see typically erupt into war in other countries between cultural/religous minorities.

You were lucky and living the dream. Sorry about shattering that.

You dont know about Coach?

So basically just a repeat of this current contract?

Given the season he had why are we assuming he'd go to free agency? Is it that the belief is he'll turn down his side of the 15M contract? That the team will? Regardless of such, why would the team give him a QO if the mutual option pays him 15M for 2026?

With Kentera there is a non-zero chance that "Great communication skills" means he is saying Suzuki(born in hawaii) is very good at English

That was clearly ownership being cheap (ignore signing Pivetta to a $55M contract)

Quite funny that the one thing Preller's biggest defenders use is that AJ is insanely good at finding talent, especially IFAs, but turns out it was actually this guy and he just felt, lol

These guys asked Randy Johnson why he rarely signs jerseys.

His answer is as badass as him

Yesterday Greupner said he believes the last two years they built a WS capable roster. I'd agree that in 2024 they did, at least for the 28-man roster, in terms of talent. But the rest of what's needed wasnt there.

I'm finding it hard to care who will be the next manager. The historical trend says they're going to be gone in two years, so why get invested? But also, i've concluded that it won't matter. This team won't win a WS because we put all our bets on the wrong players & AJ can't build a winning org.

You have to be willing to walk away from these guys if they let you down, just as a matter of basic self respect. It's not a fandom. You're hiring them to do a job or not.

It's just another name in a list of names. Though Greupner will probably push heavily for him because of the 1998 connection

I hope the new CEO of Disney has a better vision for Star Wars and more comprehension of the complexities of that franchise. This tells me that Igor thinks the fans are morons because he is a moron about this

Jackson Drive is horrible in that area. A 4 lane road passing right through a residential neighborhood with houses lining the street. Several years ago they finally added one stop light in that area but the rest of the intersections are stop signs which i've seen people routinely go right through

Maybe House of Gucci, but even that may be a flop after marketing costs are taken into account. And it was only watched because of Lady Gaga

There's a good amount just not anyone you'd really want. Maddon, Showalter, Mattingly? I'll pass on all three

Luckily he didn't talk baseball ops. Frankly to no surprise there was nothing of note except 2 things.

1. John is driving the Preller contract extension, not Greupner.

2. Dont expect Payroll to increase beyond maybe marginally

Greupner going on the fans at 8 and half the fandom wants the Morning Show to hold his feet to the fire snd the ither half rightfully doesnt want to hear his corporate ass talk Baseball Ops.

In similar news, big opportunity for @section1904.com to see if their hypothesis is correct.

This guy's crashout has him really thinking he's a massive ball knower, despite failing to miss that it's their player development that allowed them to have all but one starter throw more than 70 innings and still win the West.
