Ah yes, of course.  It's obvious, now that you say it.  Can somebody start the "Blue History Month" thread, please?

Strange going into the season with more confidence in the bullpen than any other part of the team. Looks pretty solid.

I get Neil Peart vibes here. 

I don’t want to sidetrack this thread.  But let me just say that there are people that literally cannot get along face to face, cannot even function with each other, because of their different social/political opinions.
And the there are others that may have wildly different social and political convictions, complete with plenty of energy to disagree, even aggressively AS A MATTERS OF DEBATE. . .  but can easily easily get along with each other face to face in real life, and enjoy each others company as legitimate friends.
One obvious limitation on a message board is that people from opposite sides of a debate most often don’t even have a chance to function with each other outside of the debate.  And that’s kind of  a shame because most people are far more valuable/interesting/funny/fun/loyal as friends, etc than just their debate positions.

She's actually trained at my gym a few times. Cool as hell.
My coach is pretty connected, so we randomly have some pretty big named people show up to work on something.

Hopefully he brings a prospect haul at the deadline.

Basically the final exchange between the kids and Mr Brady in every single Brady Bunch episode.
 
 

Cheer up, they're in on Wi Tu Lo.

Bingo. They’ll say they want to win and of course want to win, but I really think Arte’s main goal has been based more around simply entertaining casual fans with familiar names and feigning a serious effort to win. It’s not just big money guys either. Kinsler, Lincecum, Syndergaard, Harvey, Lucroy…casual fans will see these names and recall them from their peaks without realizing they’ve cratered and get excited, buy tickets, sell some jerseys, tune in long enough, rinse and repeat. It’s why he kept Ohtani. And he’s been open about this, he’s said all along he’s doing it for the fans and entertainment so not sure why it would be surprising at this point. And he’s made bank as a result. 

Behold, my plan to get Schanuel to double-digit HRs.
