Who do you honestly think is better, Turner or Solano? I’m conflicted, to me it seems Turner would’ve been better to bring back because he supposedly was a veteran presence. And I’m just skeptical with Solano, his production seems fine but no teams has wanted to keep him. Doubt it’s his fault, but it is still a “concern” when an old dude kind of has to be the veteran in the clubhouse.

I would have kept Turner but either way neither would be able to propel this team to where we want them to be.

My guess is they panicked and went Solano when no other middle infielder was available to the cheap bastards. Then they got Polanco which made Solano obsolete but no money for Turner at that point.

Is this legit? And didn’t realize Manny was Harper’s age, I guess I just assumed he was older

Yep same age. That shocked me as well which is why I posted it. All the similarities surprised me.

If MLB decides they really, really want a team in Portland they will definitely put pressure for a sale of the M’s

Crap, with all the injuries going around, maybe the M’s projected wins goes up?

That stadium thing never made sense. So I guess good? Their excuse for never selling out is it is really hard to get to the game after work, but to fix that is building a stadium next door?

That stadium proposal reminded me of when Clay Bennett kept proposing new arenas all over Seattle when none were remotely possible

Ya I think their bluff was finally called and he ran out of cons. Wait, does Jerry Dipoto own the Rays???

Their bluff being called is the way I’ve heard it.

But it’s just funny that Manfred wanted both the A’s and Rays stadium deals to get done but both are going to relocate, thus taking 2 expansion cities off the board. Owners should be pissed cause the more teams bidding for an expansion the more money they can make
