Wasn’t this old news? Their FPI rankings are based off a lot of different factors. I don’t think that’s their actual preseason top 25. I think it’s heavily based off previous classes

Yeah it’s not exactly a preseason top 25...I think it’s basically a points system to determine how strong the team should be. But still.

Yzerman coming home to run the Red Wings is the best thing to happen to Detroit sports since the Tigers won the 2012 AL Pennant

That would shock me. It should happen, but I'd be surprise the Braves would do that knowing they waited to bring Ronald up to save a year.

Yeah, I really don’t know. I don’t understand all the contract stuff so won’t comment there. But I know there’s a concern with bringing guys up too early. My thinking tho, as I said yesterday, is that he’s already as good or better defensively than Ender and there’s no way he’s worse offensively. So why not go with the young guy and give him some experience?

I mean it’s two weeks in Double A. I think Pache will be good but I can understand the wait by the organization lol.

I actually think Ender can be still the starting CF for this team and this team can still win a lot of games. He’s a notoriously slow starter. But he’s gotta get back to 2016-2017 form when he sprayed the ball everywhere. His pull rate has basically doubled and it’s killed his offensive game.

This may be a terrible pet peeve but I can’t stand when people say “Don’t take things for granite.” My wife does it all the time. It’s granted.

I feel like Verc.

that's how I know I'm getting old. Stuff like that drives me crazy...

bias instead of biased
Ideal instead of idea
Supposibly instead of supposedly
I regress instead of I digress

...and about 800 more.

You can’t be as ornery as me yet or else that would have been a dealbreaker. It’s not a coincidence that I married a girl who’s almost as big a language dickhead as I am.
