Season 1 was pretty good.

Also happened to be featuring 2 QBs that I really like.
Honestly I just don't watch much TV, I'm probably missing out on some good stuff.

Is this a Dolan is cheap move? I mean it is a little, but not like Civale was making all that much. I'll give them benefit of the doubt as I cannot recall us not winning trades when we gave up a pitcher.
From reading Wiggy posts about Guardian prospects it seems like the farm is stacked with arms. If you have a glut at a single position it makes sense to use one of the guys that the organization doesn’t give the highest of upsides to in exchange for a 1B prospect that projects to have power. I saw the Guardians in a limited way this year in a Phil’s series. I think you gain more watching a team even in a small microcosm over just watching box scores. They struck me as a very sound baseball team that doesn’t hurt itself, takes the extra base, moves runners, plays solid defense, etc… but they really lack for that power bat that can do damage consistently with a single swing. I don’t know much about this prospect they got but if I’m seeing he’s a top 1-2 prospect in a great system like the Rays and he’s a corner IF that to me smells like a dude who has some MLB power potential.

I get it. They have Quantrill possibly coming back. McKenzie and Bieber not anytime soon on 60 day IL.

So they are now sending out Noah and 3 rookies. 5th starter likely to be Quantrill when healthy or one of these guys: Cody Morris, Joey Cantillo, Hunter Gaddis and Chris Vallimont.

So from that aspect I get it but this is another move for the future. The prospect they acquired has less than average power for a 1st baseman. CLE needs power in a big way, he isn't MLB ready either. Probably next year.
Shit! You’ve done more homework than I did. I didn’t know the knock on the prospect was questionable translation to MLB power.

Angels got a couple bats in Cron and Grichuk from the Rockies.
Yep. These developments have made me sad as a Phil’s fan. Was hoping the Cubs and/or Angels were sellers. I really liked the idea of the Phillies plugging the gap in LF with either Hunter Renfro from the Angels or Cody Bellinger from the Cubs and both teams have gotten hot and decided to go for it.

I haven’t been able to get to episode 3 yet. I’m sorry but there’s only so much I can take of Pat Mahomes Kermit the Frog like voice. With that level of exposure in a program for him it really grates on me. Also, his twat wife is as annoying a public figure as you’ll ever find.

How about in shape Derrick Lewis?
You could actually see his abs at the weigh in.

Dude is sort of like the MMA version of Shaq.

How great could they have been had they taken their diets, working out seriously?

Both just depended on overpowering Dudes.

At least Shaq won it all.

Im still sour at the Black Beast losing to Gane….lol

He looked FANTASTIC Saturday.

Only thing that overshadowed his showing is Gaethje punting Poirer into Neverland….lol
