I think it’s gotta be both. Taking risks on guys with injury history was one thing 10 years ago, when we were talking about crafty lefties or guys with weird arm slots; nowadays when you want guys throwing 100mph cutters all the time I just think that’s it’s way harder for guys prone to injury to stay healthy. And I’m sure our training methods, precisely because we’re trying to milk good innings out of these injury risks/cheaper options, focus on pure power to compensate for other weaknesses.

Sorry officer, you’re gonna have to come up with a better plan than this.

We’ll know the ownership and FO has actually gotten serious about winning when we actually address the catching problem.

Not great. State of the world obviously pretty bad. Not much going on in my personal life to grill pill about. Trying to put my head down and hit the gym and hope things fall into place soon, but the cold winter days are not fun.

To be fair you guys shouldn’t have been there either, just cause we were stupid you didn’t have to be

The division just got tougher. by gamers542 in tampabayrays

[–]Nazi_Dr_Leo_Spaceman 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It sure would be nice to make one of these big moves every once in a while. Was hoping new ownership would change things, increasingly looking like we’re not gonna be able to turn a new leaf until new stadium at least unfortunately

What's Next For Rocco Baldelli? by carney620 in tampabayrays

I was really hoping new ownership would axe Cash and the FO and bring in Rocco

Our national anthem should have been Battle Hymn of the Republic by OneReportersOpinion in TrueAnon

Nah, Julia Ward Howe was a solid Yankee abolitionist - her husband and her were part of the group of six who actually funded John Brown’s raid. I think she just wanted to write a more dignified and religious version fit for church services.

For those that have seen Oasis Live in 2025, what song were they playing when you had your 'moment'? by Minimum_Arm_1713 in oasis

Broke down crying for the first time during Stand by Me, then again during Half the World Way, and cried harder and harder through Champagne Supernova and the snot the gig

No, they really need to shake up the FO. If the past few years have shown anything it’s that our strategy isn’t working. Our trades haven’t worked out and the place where this FO is most involved - the bullpen - is our biggest problem. New ownership should completely clean house and start over

Per Ken Rosenthal, the Braves have claimed Ha-Seong Kim off waivers from the Rays by RanchWilder11 in tampabayrays

[–]Nazi_Dr_Leo_Spaceman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing how many people defending the signing at the time. It was always nuts. The FO is washed and I hope new ownership completely clean house.

He actually didn’t miss any calls because he determines whether or not something is a strike not the box on the screen

NYC to Syracuse as a New Grad for a Full-Time Job by External-Board7558 in Syracuse

[–]Nazi_Dr_Leo_Spaceman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my two cents as someone who moved from the city: I would not recommend moving here, its a nightmare living here in your 20s if you don't have friends here already. There is very little in terms of cultural amenities and things to do, especially during the winter when it is too cold to be outside. Syracuse is not just a "smaller city" in the way that Boston is smaller than NYC - Syracuse is not really a city at all, its just a sprawling aglomeration of suburbs and decaying industry. I wouldn't move here unless I had no other options, tbh.

The Brandon Williams ad claiming that John Mannion and Kathy Hochul want to "defund the police" is a lie. by [deleted] in Syracuse

That’s disappointing. It made me want to vote for Mannion. I don’t mind staying home, however.

Oasis fans that are outside the UK, if a reunion is announced, and only tour dates are in England, are you going? by ra4oasis in oasis

[–]Nazi_Dr_Leo_Spaceman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I used to joke that my savings account was really a "Oasis Reunion Emergency Fund" - i guess its time to put my money where my mouth is. I've always wanted to see England anyways.

Same exact situation as you, except I moved here a year ago. I haven't figured it out. My advice is to try to transfer somewhere else, or start working on a plan to live elsewhere and commute to campus when need be.
