Interesting rallying cry for the season, Mr. Boone. I'm intrigued to see whether it catches on.

Jeets names new "V.P. of Being Witheringly Thin-skinned Ninny". Because apparently that's a market inefficiency of something. :crazy:

It's about time they gave A-Rod his own office suite as Spring Training Special Instructor. :shifty:

The way he played the game tells you a lot
Ah, so the best SS on the team will have to find another position.

Machado to the Padres. Wouldn't you prefer to take a little less to play on a good/winning team?

I don't follow the Padres closely, but maybe they're a year or two away from challenging? Regardless, I'm a bit bummed that the Yankees didn't get him because he smells of free agent bust to me. A shit ton of talent, but his attitude and habits to this point make me think he's going to dog it now that he's got the big deal.

Their farm system is stacked. And those graduates should be coming up in 2 or 3 years when a lot of the current big teams right now (Sox, Yanks, Astros) might be starting to decline. If the Padres can sign an ace in the next few years they could be major contenders...

They will piss it away, on field mediocrity is their stock in trade.
Machado will never play in the postseason unless he gets traded to another team.

Ouch. Their winningest manager, Bochy, has an overall losing record with the club.

Bauer is so going to take the people of Rhode Island to the cleaners when he retires.
