  1. This show is so uncomfortable. My wife and I love it. Canā€™t get the title credit music out of my head today.
  2. Crane will take all the heat, but I have zero doubt that Dusty didnā€™t really want to work with him.
  3. I stopped watching in the first 15 seconds after the host said she was surprised JV opted out. If you really think that, youā€™re not worth my time.
  4. By the way have any of yā€™all seen Passan in person? I saw him a couple of times in the third baseline concourse during the playoffs - they guy is seriously about 5ā€™7ā€ 150 lbs. LOL I just looked it up and see Wiki has it at 5ā€™9ā€ - no fucking way. Seeing him in person strangely made me a little less hostile - Iā€™m sure Iā€™d be an overcompensating dick if I looked like that.
  5. Passan doesnā€™t have a clue. Crane keeps Jackson around because it might be some minimal marginal help in spring training and around the building, but he knows itā€™s all about ego for Reggie and not really serious. Bagwellā€™s role/relationship I havenā€™t heard anything about but trust me, he ainā€™t putting a whole lotta stock into Reggie Jackson on serious matters. Iā€™m guessing Bagwell is the same.
  6. Why...shit is overrated Alvarado outside shoulda told you
  7. ā€œSo thatā€™s what Iā€™m gonna do, do some more winninā€™.ā€ HELL YES DUSTY!!!
  8. I was at the last WS flag unveiling and it went quite poorly. Given that the parade route this time was 100000x better than the 2017 parade, I can only assume theyā€™ll learn from their mistake of failing to be able to get the cover off the pennant at the climactic moment.
  9. Well Iā€™m ready to run through a goddamned brick wall now. Is it April yet?
  10. We sure we want the guy that traded Hader and tanked the Brewersā€™ playoff chances? Phillies fans should send him gift baskets for this season.
  11. Iā€™m listening to whatever idiots host ā€œRoundtripā€ on MLB Radio and they are so pissed. Their tears could not be more delicious.
  12. So next yearā€™s slogan should be pretty clear. #INEVITABLE
  13. And hereā€™s what Iā€™ve heard from my various well placed sources. JV wants more than Scherzer, thatā€™s his goal. Craneā€™s gonna pay it. What exactly that means for length of the contract Iā€™m not sure, but exceeding Scherzerā€™s per year headline number is his goal. They donā€™t want Espada to be the next manager and him not getting hired by the White Sox fucked up a one-year succession plan of bringing in the target to be the bench coach under Dusty. I havenā€™t heard anything on the GM other than what I relayed about Click not wanting to sign Brantley or Gurriel, and Crane overriding him. That story combined with the Urquidy/Contreras news I think tells us all we need to know. Whether it will be Stearns, Sig or someone else I have no clue, havenā€™t heard anything on that front.
  14. Now that Iā€™m home from the parade I feel like I can finally post on this thread. Still basking in the unreal glow of winning. My favorite part of the parade (we were in Midtown) was when people were confused with the trophy in the float towards the end with Crane, Altuve, JV, Turner, Kate, etc. ā€œThe trophy already went by! Whatā€™s up with that? Oh yeah! WE HAVE TWO, BITCHES!!!!ā€
  15. Fuckin video is too large to upload. Iā€™ll get it up soon enough.
  16. Michael Connor just said on the radio that the last 75 games of the season, we went 5+ IP in every start. Really? How had I not heard that stat? That is unbelievable.
  17. HOLY SHIT WE WON THE WORLD SERIES! Still hasnā€™t quite sunk in. As a die hard fan we all know itā€™s much more than a single title. Dynasty, redemption, fuck all yā€™all, whatever. 6 ALCS in a row, 4 WS, 2 titles. Amazing. Fucking amazing.
