Okay so now that the Raiders officially have the number 1 pick, would this Mendoza guy make the team worth paying attention to?

I refuse to invest any energy on another player that will get scooped out from under Preller at the 11th hour.

First time I’ve seen one out in the wild.

They still don’t allow you to send pictures in the DMs here, which sucks, but they also no longer allow you to send DMs at all on Twitter, so another win for BlueSky.

I like Michael King and am waiting on the details, but at first glance another bad SP contract by Preller.

That Spurs game was awesome.

Watching this Spurs/Thunder game and thinking how the Spurs could use a pesky defender (as I’ve been saying) but also someone who could sink 3-pointers and was pleased to learn that’s a thing.

I’ve been so caught up in whether the Padres could with Lindor that I haven’t bothered to look into whether they should.

Excited to see what the return looks like.

The most realistic outcome for this offseason will be Preller overpaying the White Sox for Luis Robert so he can trade Jackson Merrill for a couple of mediocre rotation options.

If Mason Miller is sticking in the bullpen then Preller may as well trade him now and hope some team is still salivating over his playoff performance.

I respect actors who keep their real teeth. This comment is brought to you by seeing a clip of Ethan Hawke.

A young woman I know through a dating app who was stripping to pay for nursing school has announced that she is officially a registered nurse. I’m so proud of her.

Too bad Preller fucked up the money so much because I think I like this contract.

I am the coolest guy you know.

Wat

Let’s discuss

Opened up The App Formerly Known as Twitter and, based on my timeline, he’s talking about Giannis Auntiegotapoodle, specifically.

I am ashamed to admit that, for most of my young adult life, I assumed Steely Dan’s “Do it Again,” was a Santana song. I simply believed it to be the case and never bothered checking.

I’ve got a lovely gaggle of gay friends who thirst over pictures of me on Instagram but it would be nice if straight women would do so once in a while.

What if the guy selling 10% of the team (Kutsenda?!?) is selling to the Seidler brothers, giving their side of the family 30%, which is more than Sheel’s 24%, and allows the next buyers to have controlling interest of the team?

Odds are probably decent that the next owner of the Padres is on the flight logs.

Now, more than ever, the 2023 Padres are an absolute disgrace.

I wonder how exciting the GM meetings just got for Preller?

I’ve got a trunk show during F1 weekend. I’m going to introduce all my clients and see if I could put together an ownership group to buy the Padres.

Peter’s Vision™️ when it’s time for survivors to divvy up a couple billion dollars amongst themselves

This is going to somehow end with Manny Machado having an ownership stake in the Padres.

Just when I thought I was out…

Hell yeah

The Guardians refused to promote Niebla to their Pitching Coach and the Padres refused to make him their Manager. Something very frustrating about his career trajectory when the people who should know him best don’t want to give him a meaningful promotion.

Passan encouraging another FA splash for the Padres:

Kinda funny that Nick Hundley almost had the SF job handed to him, pulled out of contention because he preferred the Padres gig, and now he’s got neither.

None of these guys will be here in year 3 of Stammen’s contract, but tbf Stammen probably won’t be, either.

Ranked choice: 1 Pujols 2 Niebla 3 Hundley

Padres couldn’t be bothered to wash the bird shit off the traffic signal pole for the unveiling.

I sincerely appreciate how quickly Roster Resources updates.

I want Morejon to do what’s best for him but if he can work as fast and be as efficient as a SP as he is as a reliever, he’ll be my favorite pitcher on the roster.

As someone who is partial to the 1969-1984 interlocking “SD,” I am probably not going to care to spend a lot of money on CC 2.0

The Blue Jays really earned losing this series.

I offered them Mason Miller for Leo De Vries and they laughed me out of the room.

Secret manager candidate identified?

There is a scene in “Late Night with the Devil” that I found so legitimately scary in the moment that I have mentally blocked it out.

I was not on the Pujols hype-train initially, but reading that he’s in San Diego getting a second interview got me at least a little excited.

It’d be really funny if the Rockies fall short of luring away AJ Preller so they just hire a bunch of his underlings to work with a different head of Baseball Ops.

I don’t like the idea of Greupner running the Padres but I also don’t like the reality of Preller running the team so…

I don’t watch soccer and I can’t tell based off the timeline alone if the MLS season is very long or if a new season has started and I completely missed the end of the last one.

Mark DeRosa never comes up as a managerial option anymore. They must have really hated his work in the WBC.
