    P Cloudy 65.8

    I think it hastened it, but they also wanted out of that contract, too. I get it...I don't think he'll age particularly gracefully over 30.....

    Nothing is proof of anything in A ball....which harkens back to the fact I would want a higher percentage yield trading a player of Dever's caliber. Not to mention they have sold us on "waiting until the youth is ready" to compete for several years, now once it arrives, they cut the teams legs out from underneath it.

    I disagree. Confident it has nothing to do with it, but we can agree to disagree. The Giants didn't opt to eat 250 million on a whim overnight, so the outcome of the series wasn't a factor- It wasn't a baseball decision.....the Sox decision to move him had nothing to do with wins and losses.
  5. 40/70 Benchmark
    This move had absoluely zero point zero to do with baseball...non-factor. It was about finances and (frayed) relationships.
  6. 40/70 Benchmark
    I don't think so. You don't move that much money overnight....this was in the works for a bit-
  7. 40/70 Benchmark
    Absolutely...he's a shit-bag. I wanted him gone, but not for a bag of balls. What frustrated me is they valued saving more money over getting any talent back in return. The issue isn't Devers, but rather the continued deemphasis of the collection of premium talent.
  8. 40/70 Benchmark
    Complete crap.

    1) He's hitting 245 in low A ball 2) He's in low A ball and a few if not severla years away 3) Just what they needed...another OF. Yay: Prospects TLDR: Tibbs currently has the look of a good platoon outfielder. His projection could shift into more of an everyday role if his defense improves and/or he shows he can hit upper-level lefties.

    I would have preferred that they ate some of the deal to got a top prospect back, or a bonafide SP.

    I think CC is going to impact the tropics in the same manner that it is winter in terms of the greater degree of variance...ie "all of nothing". When conditions are favorable, it will undoubtedly be hyper active with instense storms, but I think there will be some instances where it will result in greater shear.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    Okay, no one is calling for hyper active.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, ACE is more predictable.....obviously the most important factor is land impact.
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    No matter how cool and wet it seems, in this day and age its always going to end up one of the warmest (insert timeframe) on record. Even if the days aren't featuring warm maxes, either the night won't radiate and/or some other area of the globe will be obersving record all-time warmth.
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    Oh, mercy...I don't even count him as a reputable source.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    Were are the hyper active tropical forecasts?? Col State and the NHC were a hair above average...
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Agree.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    I would take my chances with a season either like 2022-2023 with less extreme west coast troughing, or last year with a -PNA.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I doubt it would be as dry and suppressed as last season, though with a -PNA....I think Chuck just meant similar to last year in terms of temps going against the decadal grain and not being prohibitively warm.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    I'm in the 50's and cloudy today...great yard work weather.
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    I think it snip my scrotum and use it to tie a noose to hang myself with.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    One more week until fannies begin to take a bit longer to heat up when straddling car seats.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    Well, there is always going to be some level of BABIP luck involved...you can't eliminate that. However, harder hit balls of a higher BABIP....ie greater chance of being a hit.
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    Maybe, there were some inside runners, too.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    It was a dry winter in general, but it was wasn't dry over the lakes as it was along the east coast.
