    That was an enjoyable article. For me, the legitimacy is enhanced by the company in the neighborhood. People hate the cost per win, nevertheless, one cannot dismiss the long-term stake the team has claimed, especially in the modern baseball ecosystem. Surely, Milwaukee has bragging rights vis-à-vis regular season wings, divisional titles, and most importantly, playoff appearances. But even the Brewers look up to the Marlins Moneyball-esque cost per win numbers. It's remarkable, stuck as it is in the MLBPA's craw. Frankly, I love it. If Bendix wins, perhaps he is truly a modern day alchemist.

    One game. Nothing to go nuts over yet.

    Anything better than a two-out, walk-off homer? Excellent. Regarding the ABS system: I definitely not a fan. We continue to add decision-making requirements, while all the while watching obviously poor calls stand while the technology sits unused. I realize the ease-in strategy and umpire sensibilities/union issues are the reasons. So, we continue to watch and shake our heads as game outcomes are affected. Frankly, I'd be fine without the ABS, but if it to be used, then freaking use it.

    I thought the same thing, but Bendix sees himself as a baseball alchemist. Who knows what he's planning and how many moves ahead of us he is?
  5. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Apex of the season right now for my predictions. Lol.
  6. THOMAS JOSEPH
    No way that I am breaking the vibe. Marlins sweep. Conine is MVP.
  7. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Beef on the hoof.
  8. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Prescient.

    Enjoyed the article. Don't get the signing. Oh, well. It's going to be utterly forgettable anyway, I bet. What's for lunch?

    Unfortunately, 74-88. Big year: Norbs "Mervis 2026": Morel, of course. Skipped games: Dodgers and Yankees (watch MiLB during those series for my mental health). Later, brother, and thanks: Former Expo Tommy Hutton. He played for other teams, but I don't remember or care. Lol. Cheers.

    I think this year will be bittersweet. Last season, the stars aligned with lots of mediocre WC contenders and an uncharacteristic Braves swoon. For the Fish this season, 74-88. Hope like hell that they overachieve, of course.
  12. THOMAS JOSEPH
    That's a trek, for sure. I'm old, nothing else to do, so I split my year between Louisville and Jax, with a couple of Jax to Miami road trips. Cheers
  13. THOMAS JOSEPH
    I'm in total agreement.
  14. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Great to see new season optimism. Marlins sweep. MVP: Connor Norby
  15. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Not a believer in this guy. He sure looks like both the definition of middling, and utterly superfluous, to my mind. Funny, Bendix didn't call me about it, though.
  16. THOMAS JOSEPH
    I'm heading back to Jax for a few months, and frankly, catching a bunch of Shrimp games will be the highlight of the trip. They're destined for another season win total much better than the big league team, as much as I hate to state that.
  17. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Nice looking.
  18. THOMAS JOSEPH
    A middling old vet. Geez.
  19. THOMAS JOSEPH
    It's nice to be on the OD roster, but we all know it's ineluctably fluid.
  20. THOMAS JOSEPH
    I wager Norbs will be one of the best players on the team this season.
  21. THOMAS JOSEPH
    The Marlins will likely use a ton of bullpen guys again this season. Don't all teams?
  22. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Damn, I hope I am not turning into a David Samson, because my first thought here was how sweet it would be if McCambley got the last out in the game that eliminated the Phillies from the playoffs this year. Come to think of it, any Marlins pitcher would be fine in that scenario. Lol.
  23. THOMAS JOSEPH
    Interesting perspective. I don't know who this Bam fellow is, nor am I even motivated to search, but I get the premise. Cheers.
  24. THOMAS JOSEPH
    This means two years of precious career time.
  25. THOMAS JOSEPH
    It is early, indeed. I don't find it necessary to hope traded players fail - that's bad karma - but frankly, Cabrera's injury proclivity was the factor for me. I figure about five starts before there is an issue. Weathers, same thing. To my mind, physical injury issues just follow players, keeping them from gaining career traction and adding them to the what-might-have-been discussions between fans. As always, we will see, especially in the context of "winning a trade." Cheers.
