    How was Helsley overused? I mean, they did bring him in to be the closer, right? And I think people are kinda overselling the notion that a seasoned manager would've gotten a different result this season: Because it overlooks the roster the problems and what Hyde/Mansolino left behind. We would be at best .500...I am jot convinced it would've made that much of a difference.

    How are people calling for him to be fired already...3 months in? Lol And consider the pitching he's had to work with this year. Not sure it's a fair litmus test yet...Alby has had a bad series so far, no doubt about it. But fired already in his rookie year? Nah...

    Awesome--congratulations to you both! Praying blessings for a long and happy marriage--God bless

    Sun? Never heard of it

    Yes. They don't need to start completely over in terms of the players. That is why I think this can be turned around in a much shorter timeframe than before, and that another fire sale isn't necessary (not too many sellable veterans left anyway, lol).

    You mentioned yesterday that you hadn't seen a pattern like this...what made it unusual?

    What makes it so unusual?

    Unfortunately, in this country, the general public operates on feeling...we see this played out in many different areas, lol You see all the rain we're getting and it doesn't "feel" like a drought and this rain "feels" like it's fixing it. I wish people would just think a little more about these things but...not how we operate apparently, smh

    I don't understand...rain guage numbers are right there in your back yard. And we have our yearly averages vs. where we are. I mean stuff even a layman can understand that doesn't need a ton of science. So I don't get how you can say it's not real unless as CAPE said it's connected to the other thing.

    Whoops I meant 97-98, lol What was the number that year?
  11. Maestrobjwa
    97-98 oughta be on that list too, right?
  12. Maestrobjwa
    What did you see down there tonight?
  13. Maestrobjwa
    He already criticized himself for it afterward while sitting on the bench and basically said the same thing, lol He acknowledged it and hit a home run in the next AB...so all forgiven (not to mention that ball probably would have been a homer if the had a camera on top of there...it was close)
  14. Maestrobjwa
    But if it's gonna be east-based, though...isn't that an automatic wall-to-wall torch like 97-98?
  15. Maestrobjwa
    Why?
  16. Maestrobjwa
    Whereas the warmth this time around looks to setup where? (Or is it too early to tell) Trying to know if I shoild expect a 72-73/97-98 torch or not, lol
  17. Maestrobjwa
    Question is...who will build it? Actually it seems there has been a renewed interest lately about where it may be...a site in Turkey is being looked at again.

    Elias is officially in over his skis. His system has now failed, and he simply doesn't have the instincts to turn young talent into a contender. Good eye for said young talent (our farm system remains Top 10), but no clue about major league talent or hitting & pitching philosophies. It's like he relied completely on the computers to do those things instead. He's gotta go!

    Alright so next week everybody drop off all your drenched sweat rags, shirts, and other humidity paraphernalia at 87's house. Don't even wring it out just slop it at the door
  20. Maestrobjwa
    Rooting for humidity...on a forum of strange ones you sir are in your own league with on that one
  21. Maestrobjwa
    This is exactly why it was an excellent business move, lol Hey the team may be struggling, but this city would NOT pass up a Tupac bobblehead! Catie Griggs hasn't been great at reading the room, but this was spot on, haha
  22. Maestrobjwa
    And you know what...I do not think we have a talent problem. That's why I'd be against any rebuild. I hope they don't sell at the deadline, because there aren't that many pieces left to sell without completely starting over! You would not get much from the vets we do have (and you're not selling Alonso, lol). It's not like last year...I think we're just gonna have to stand pat while we search for a new GM.
  23. Maestrobjwa
    They're gonna have to axe Elias. I'm not sure how you justify keeping him at this point. This is all his construction and it's come out terribly, smh
  24. Maestrobjwa
    I have a Mid-Atl bias--ninas are no good here, so yeah, lol
  25. Maestrobjwa
    So torch east-based super followed by another round of cool enso (which always double dips) being the worst case scenario? Sounds like a warminista's dream, smh
