Bump. We in there. His 1st Vols game.

Double bump. I purchased the tix through PayPal as Goods and Services, or friends and family. I have mutual friends of the man. I’ve still yet to receive the tix, but he has my money. He is in daily contact with me. He has offered to speak with the UT ticket office with me to try and get it figured out. But it’s always “the next day” and I’m getting beyond frustrated. I’ve spoken with him on the phone often. He continuously text me about the games, recommendations for things to do when we had a tourney in Gallatin (which is where we stayed), and he’s always kind. His father is a missionary in Ghana, and he is the one who actually owns the tix (not a made up story, as bad as it sounds). I’m at a loss of what to do. He’s not avoiding me. We’re friends on FB. But it’s getting old. Not sure how to get my $ back either if he tries to pull some stuff on me. Any advice?

Gonna need a really good bench with Ozzie's wrist injury again. It took nearly an entire year to get back to form after the last injury. We can't afford another year of Ozzie hitting like Rafael Belliard.

Off-season needs

SP - Cease would probably be my preference here. But Woodruff has looked great since his return.

OF - Bellinger or trade for someone like Byron Buxton.

SS - Kim signed to an extension

Utility player - Willi Castro, Dylan Moore, Falafel-face, etc

RP - Devin Williams

I missed the back story on this somehow…

Just be honest with him. Tell him you need to solidify plans and if the tickets aren’t going to work out then you need to get some from somewhere else ASAP. And just ask him to send the money back, no hard feelings. If you’re polite and respectful and he turns into a jerk about it, then that tells you all you need to know about the guy. Then you can make a decision about how to deal with PayPal.

I really only mentioned him because AA already tried to trade for him at the deadline.

He only has 3/45 left on his deal and he's putting the finishing touches on a 5 WAR season. We could do a lot worse.

Dude he has scratched out 100 games 3 TIMES in 11 seasons. He averages 82 games played per season. Hard pass on that.
