Spoke to my buddy awhile the other day about everything offseason.
Me - ”Any rumors to Brad Ausmus”?
Him - “I hope not. Everything I’ve heard is he’s anti-analytics and isn’t suited to the job. Sounds like we’d continue going in reverse.” “We were shocked last season when he was mentioned as a GM candidate.”
Me - “What are your personal top 5 choices then”?
Him - “AJ Hinch, Omar Lopez, Mark Kotsay, Rodney Linares, Joe Espada” “any rumors to Showalter, Maddon, Bannister, Ausmus, Washington or Counsell are just fabricated to create noise”
Me - “Whatever Bagwell wants Bagwell gets”
Him - “The perception of the public that Bagwell is calling the shots is extremely overshot. He’s around and Jim definitely likes him and listens. But in no way is he the shot caller. Baggy is awesome with us downstairs. I enjoy talking with him every time he comes down
He does exactly what his title says, advises/gives his opinion. But at the end of the day, Jim and Dana make final shot calls.He gets aired out for Abreu, Montero, and Brantley signings when that was actually all Jim.
Jim was outbidding himself on Abreu.
Montero’s agent took Jim to cleaners.
Brantley deal was negotiated at Jim’s golf course in Florida.
Ever since cheating scandal, Jim has wanted to be more hands on so he doesn’t get burned by not knowing things. Which has had pros but definitely cons as well. I compare what he’s doing to Jerry Jones a lot, not in a good way“
“He’s gotta trust his baseball guys though. He wants to win consistently but stuff like outbidding yourself on Abreu and overpaying Montero is gonna hurt these next two off seasons. Because between the two of them there’s roughly $8M annually we could have saved and spent on someone else. That’s Neris money we don’t have or for anyone else we wanna go after”
You bet.

Yup. That thing was motion activated and broadcast movie lines... The wife was not appropriately impressed with my ability to quote along with him listing his credentials.
If there hadn't been any kids around, I'm sure the owner would have appreciated my highest praise...
"Nice fucking model!"
Honk honk.

She is a bit of an oddball, and not a typical heroic detective like Bill Hodges and Ralph Anderson. I guess that's why I find her endearing.
And on the topic of female leads, King rarely features them in his novels, which is understandable since he's a guy. But when he does, he does it very well. Take a book like Rose Madder, which doesn't come up often, but it's one of my favorites and one of his books I've read twice. It's a fantastic story, and Rosie is a compelling character.
Carrie, Misery, Delores Claibourne. I get it, dozens of books and I can only name these 3 off the top of my head. You are correct that he does write them well. These 3 are in my top 10-15 of his characters.

So I watched a movie on HBO Max called The Lodge. It was more of a psychological thriller. Has a couple of “what the hell” moments (you’ll know what I’m talking about early in the movie if you watch it). It dragged a little in the middle but that’s more due to the subject content. I thought it was worth the watch.
Nice recommendation. Enjoyed this yesterday.

I thinks it's pretty amazing we're going to get 35 or more homeruns from the catcher position.

Framber was late on the timer. Should have been called. That's what AJ is arguing.
