    pretty sure we all want him back but if the writings not on the wall then its on the ceiling w TT and Lux around and borass certain to look for north of 350mil
    would love to see him willing to slide to 3rd but hey, for real, he's gone and i think that's just the reality hope i'm wrong cause you're right
    young guy w likely some great years ahead of him and he's homegrown so there's that too

    Dave Letterman loves this description...
    Speaking of swinging forks : I've always defended Joc in the past when he suffered under the deluge of obese flagellation on here. I felt he was just solidly built, blah, blah.
    However, looking at him in an Atlanta uniform these days, he might be up next on " My 600 Pound Life".
    He will soon make Tio look like Trea Turner by comparison...but hits better in the post...

    Prefer this to Eckstein sprinting as fast as he can on a walk.

    That was such an awesome moment ruined by our manager. I remember the joy I felt when Puig hit that HR because it was the first time all series that I felt the Dodgers could win the WS but then Davey happened. Pulling Rich Hill has to be ranked in his top 5 biggest fuck ups and that's saying a lot

    I feel you but I am convinced that the Yankees are going to offer him an insane contract. They're desperate to make a splash and Seager is a great fit for them.

    Not trying to beat a dead horse but I definitely have my concerns about TT going forward after what I saw in the postseason. I was really hoping his previous postseason stats with the Nationals were just a fluke but he looked like a deer in the headlights. I have no doubt that he will be awesome in the regular season again but this is a WS or bust team. I would take Seager over him all day but that won't happen.

    True, dat...
    Dave Roberts makes the ongoing, usual "bridesmaids" result a fucking deflating reality instead of a "ground hog day" fantasy...

    Only hope is they offer it to Correa instead. Correa is the better defender, hopefully that matters to them

    They want to balance out their RH-heavy lineup. Seager would be the perfect fit for them.

    Except he's made of paper and the bright lights of NY are much harsher than LA's...the dimensions of the NY bandbox will certainly favor him, though.

    Buster Posey just retired. Huge blow for the Giants

    How a sports drink caused the Giants to lose their face of the franchise to retirement. Coca Cola recently purchased the Body Armor sports drink company for 5.6 billion dollars. Kobe Bryant invested 6 million into it, his estate is set to receive more than 400 million dollars from that sale. Among other investors in that company are Mike Trout and Buster Posey. This dude just made bank, realized he’s a 3 time champ and probably is going into the HOF, and decided he no longer wanted to be hit by baseballs
