  1. Edgar Martinez comes to mind too, he was a 3B for just 3 seasons worth of games...
  2. I'm really curious to see if Bregman can step it up in a contract year, he has been nowhere close to the guy in 2018 and 2019 that was a 8-9 bWAR monster. I know some of the struggles are injury related, but it's hard not to notice that the big money extension kicked in right as the downward trend started.
  3. Need WRs that can separate. With Tank hurt we only had Nico, who a good DC can scheme away using double teams and blitzes. WRs should be tripping over themselves to catch the ball from Stroud, so let's see what we can do.
  4. Y'all remember the straight nastiness we had with Lidge/Dotel/Wagner back in the day? I think we're back at that level with Abreu/Pressly/Hader, with flexibility to mix them around based on where lefties are in the opposing batting order.
  5. You guys that want no part of Cleveland... c'mon now. We playing with house money at this point and this city deserves a home playoff game. Let's gooooooooo
  6. Nothing in the NFL is more valuable than a franchise caliber QB on a rookie contract, and we have one of those. The next 4 years (three plus 5th year option) is best window we'll have to put Super Bowl talent around him. Time for Nick, DeMeco, and the McNairs to get to work.
  7. There's a couple of other true Stroud truthers like me from way back before the draft. Oh how sweet the victory lap this morning.

    USMNT 2023

    It was infuriating just how misused CP was at Chelsea, and I say that as a Chelsea fan. But bringing him on the cheap was a genius piece of business for Gerry Cardinale and Redbird Capital. CP is already one of the best players in Italy and over the next 18 months I expect CP will be the biggest (Non-Messi) face of the US-hosted 2026 World Cup, bringing in plenty of $ for himself and ownership.
  9. Say what you will about Snyder, he's not afraid to go big. Originally pitched as a Star Wars spinoff. Sofia Boutella often gets cast as a badass. I'm in.
  10. And one more because they our boys
  11. It's 100% real. Stroud and Dell hit it off at the combine, and Stroud immediately let the front office know after being drafted that he'd love it if Tank was also a Texan. And props to the front office for doing it... they had the scouting chops to have a high enough grade on an undersized WR, and also showed they were willing to do things to make the possible face of the franchise comfortable.
  12. CJ is starting to learn the limits of his arm talent and that the worst case scenario can happen more often when the other side has professional football players at every position. This is good for his long term development. He's taking some real hits too. Next week will be telling. I'm likely one of the biggest CJ truthers here from way before the draft, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if he plays a clean game vs Jacksonville... I think it's the first time an NFL team will get a second crack at Stroud, and they'll be ready later after Stroud came into their house and kicked their ass. Let's see how Bobby counters.
  13. This wicket is a limp noodle. Australia is gonna go HARD in the first 10, because without dew this is not an easy target to chase. India needs to get Warner, Head, and Marsh in the first 10.
  14. Wait, EyM is opening a Dallas location?
  15. Yeah it's an overpay if you think about the usual cost to move up from 12 to 3 for a non QB. However, the fact that we still had the CLE first helps cushion the blow. Here's how I look at it. Say we drafted Will at #2... the fact that he is #3 amongst NFL edge defenders in pass rush win percentage and #1 in run support win percentage means it's a home run pick. So then it's that package for Stroud at #3, which is a freaking slam dunk deal.
  16. Will Anderson has been a top 10 guy at his position this year, maybe top 5, according to the advanced stats. He's an absolute monster in the making.
  17. Rohit did Rohit things, and the 100 up in 12 overs for India. Good toss to win.

    Lol took the words right out of my mouth. If Sorkin, Koppelman, et al don't have a doozy of a tennis insult in the finale I'm gonna be extremely disappointed.
  19. Screw it, let's blow the doors off these guys. Who going to the game tonight?
  20. How can you not be romantic about baseball...
  21. SIAP, but of course you know who was the fastest guy out of the dugout when the benches cleared...Houston blood all the way.
