Coulda took that one for the team.

Same fuckin' double play. They've had this game won three times and still fucked it up.

Did UH hire aggy engineers?

I'm not a fan of Yorgo's style, but he got some shit done. Fuck the fudgepack deadass conference. I just wish he could have told Colorado to go pound sand.

OK, you're right. Maybe they set it up that way to make room for makeup games. Who the hell knows. Baseball does weird shit.

They don't want to compete with the first NFL game.

Smaller bands?

The Lions cut LS Jake McQuade yesterday, after signing him from the Cowboys last year. It's possible the Cowboys already have plans on getting him back.

I'm guessing they think Iggy is a good fit for the hybrid thing they use in Quinn's defense. He was an LB to CB convert, they needed another body like that in the mix after losing Overshown.

WOOHOOOO!!!

That was a masterful strikeout. If only he could do that more consistently.

Ump is trash. Nathanial is clutch!

Got just enough to not have to water the plants this evening. About a tenth of an inch. Grass is still crunchy AF.

Even if they squeak into the wild card round, they don't have the bullpen to get far, and not enough offensive depth. I was skeptical about them going all in with the trades, and this is why. They lost a few good pieces that could have served them better in the next couple of years, and now they look like another old team that won't have enough to get it done. At least Scherzer has another year, but I don't know if he'll be the same Max we hoped for. Montgomery was a really good pickup this year, but probably one and done. They're going to have to rebuild the bullpen yet again next year and get another starter or two, as they aren't likely to get help from the young phenoms in the system. They're basically back to where they started. Jung has been injury prone during his career, and if that remains a trend it's bad news. All that, and they're still paying DeGrom's hefty salary and getting zipola in return.

I think it may come down to what they have in pass protection, as well as special teams. If they think he's going to be an effective blocker in the backfield, once he learns all the reads and assignments, Luepke could be a great multi-tool guy for several years to come. I'm a bit concerned about losing Zeke's blocking and having smaller backs trying to fill that role. He needs to have a regular role on special teams while he learns the more complex stuff on offense. He'll be one of the last cuts while they make the decision and check the wires for depth, hopefully picking up OL somewhere. I'm not sure Turpin is going to be that valuable and could be expendable. I don't see him getting much in offensive reps over other receivers. He had some return game early last season but looked a lot more average and a bit loose with the ball as the season wore on. I don't want to see another secret weapon sucking up roster space and doing nothing special. I get too many Tavon Austin flashbacks.

This is what Cowboys wire at USA Today projects for running backs on the 53, and I pretty much agree, not the sure about it part, but what I think should happen. Ronald Jones was a bad signing, even before the off-field issue. He flopped when he was needed to step up at Tampa and just wasn't a dawg. https://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/lists/cowboys-53-man-roster-projection-final-2023/ I’m sure he’s on the team: Tony Pollard Rico Dowdle Deuce Vaughn Hunter Luepke Cut to go to practice squad: Malik Davis Cut cut: Ronald Jones Position Notes: Luepke got the opportunity on Saturday and did everything with it. I doubt another club wants to put him on their 53-man roster so Dallas would be safe getting him to the practice squad, but they don’t take the chance.

I finally get to sit through a whole fucking game, and I had to sit through that whole fucking game.

Nice throw, Nathan.

Please keep Perez out of this game.

Sporz and LePew pretty much spotless. Rangers bullpen is like Russian roulette.

Seems weird to say, but should have left LePew in.

Probably has a secret compartment for your stash.

Will looks like he was stuck between his Luis Tiant and his Catfish Hunter.

He was kinda sucking the last two innings. Not sure how to feel about Smith out there. Hopefully a bounce-back game.

They ain't even tryna fuck with Adoli's arm in right field.
