We're doing fine. Very close call. Tornado missed by about 300 yards. Very scary. Thanks DT and Murph.

Glad to hear you are ok. Had me worried for a while.

Thanks. I can see interstate 30 from my backyard. I could see transformers blowing. Where all the people died is about 2 miles away. Prayers for their families.

It's almost 7:30 and Saddles hasn't stopped by. Really slow!

Sad to hear about Dave Henderson.

The Spankees add Aroldis Chapman from the Reds. They now have the top 3 K/9IP pitchers in MLB in their bullpen. Yikes.

I bet SD would love to get out from under that bad contract.

Report: White Sox, Orioles "emerging as leaders" for Yoenis Cespedes

Rangers thought to be in the mix.

They call Shields a flyball pitcher yet his career GB% is 44.7% and last year was 44.9%.... he was just HR prone last year (and walk prone)... do people even look at numbers before writing this stuff?

I'm no advocating trading for Shields, especially if the cost is Yrizzari, I just hate it when people make shit up

This guy worries me. His next team will be his 5th stop in the same number of years in the ML.

His talent level is unquestionable. But the last I saw of his asking price it was phenomenal, in years and dollars.

with those 3 as part of the deal SD would have to take on some of the cash at around 6M a year and i still would not be crazy about it
