    Said he's been in a threesome. And he wasn't talking about the pitching staff.

    Oh. My. God. Looks like a party at Rock Hudson's house.

    Jonathan Lucroy wants to win, hopes Brewers trade him "I'm not going to sit here and say we're going to compete for the playoffs this year," Lucroy told the [Milwaukee Journal Sentinel] in a telephone interview. "If I did that, you'd call me a liar. I'd lose credibility and respect. I want to win, and I don't see us winning in the foreseeable future. I want to go to a World Series. That's what all players want. Rebuilding is not a lot of fun for any veteran guy." This next season could be a rough one in Milwaukee. The new fashion in baseball is trading everyone away and really sucking while you wait for the kids to develop. The Astros did it, and the Braves are doing it right now. Teams that are kind of caught in the middle can suck a little less thoroughly but do it for a longer time (see: Mets 2009-14, Phillies 2012-?). Brew Crew needs to own the remake and start from scratch.

We're going to have to subpoena his travel records at the end of the year to see which one of us was right. My luck, he'll change planes in Atlanta.

    Jenrry Mejia. Hasn't been released and he knows his next infraction is a career-ender. Comes up late in the year and provides crucial depth in the pen. Still won't be a hero, but will be unexpected as everyone's got him dead and buried already.

    I love the little gold crown on the KC cap. It subtly says 'World Champs, bitchizzzzzz!'

    I'm kind of okay with that lineup. I didn't want to see Conforto batting 3rd out of the chute. Maybe he gets there eventually, but that's too much pressure to put on the kid Opening Day. And remember, 4 days out of 5, we've got a hitter batting #9 in the order.

    Boy, he needs an editor. Those run-on sentences, full of commas, needed or unneeded, made my head hurt.

    I think Murph will be playing third and Rendon second. Murph's less of a liability at third; it's his natural position (if Murphy can be said to have a natural position).
  14. Lefty Specialist
    I wouldn't get too cocky. They have decent starters and re-worked their bullpen (although they still have Papeldouche, who's normally an effective enough closer). They have a decent leadoff guy in Revere, a star on the rise in Trea Turner, Murphy and Rendon are solid hitters, and Harper is the reigning MVP. Zimmerman and Werth are on the downside but they'll still hit some, and Ramos kills the Mets. As we sit here in late January I'd still say the Mets are a better club. But in January 2015, the Nats were supposed to go to the World Series and win it, too.

    Testing his bat-flipping muscles as we speak. Hope the doc tells him to lay off the ciggies.
  16. Lefty Specialist
    All of the above!

    I voted Yes-Pedes. That's the year right there.

    Well, could have been BLUE Kool-Aid.

    Sorry Forbes, I'm not turning off my AdBlocker.

    Oh, snap.

    Re-sign him to a minor-league deal with the stipulation that he loses that stupid beard.
  22. Lefty Specialist
    Also, if you're drinking, it should be from appropriate glassware.....

    Worked a business trip in early March in such a way that I'll see a Cactus League game. Gonna scout the Cubbies in preparation for the NLCS. You're welcome.

    I love Syndergaard. He's like a fan who can throw 100-MPH fastballs.
  25. Lefty Specialist
    I think both Sandy and the Wilpons look at this as a one-year deal. And frankly, that's not a bad thing.
