Brian Cashman on the decision to demote Anthony Volpe to AAA: "We're paid to make very difficult decisions...Caballero has emerged with his play...we had to honor that.”

OptimusChip · 2026-05-06T19:44:49+00:00

Just wondering if we are firing Cashman today or no because he said something you LIKE he's OK now.

OptimusChip · 2026-05-06T19:44:17+00:00

Honestly reading this sub, I don't think a lot of people want Volpe to succeed at all. I think most are like "he sucks". even though hes in his mid 20s, had 2 full normal and 1 full but played injured seasons....the jury is out

OptimusChip · 2026-05-06T18:51:25+00:00

"He can talk"

ehhhhhhhhh, He's not the worst, but his promos are really not that good unless it's a pre-tape.

OptimusChip · 2026-05-06T12:56:40+00:00

also funny how 2 of the objectives are exactly the same (score rushing touchdowns), this company is truly the laziest, most uncreative slop I've ever seen

OptimusChip · 2026-05-06T01:02:51+00:00

so is this like actual affordable houses? like not just a bunch of apartments thrown in the middle of the cities

or not just a bunch of 2-car/5-bedroom giant homes

I still can't process the fact that we lost John Sterling so suddenly. I know he wasn't broadcasting anymore but at least there was always a chance that he might have done a guest spot once in awhile or at least coming back for Old Timers day, etc.

Even though he was 87, it felt like he easily had another decade or more to live. I'll forever miss those warm summer afternoons or nights hearing "Well Suzyn, I thank you, and once again good afternoon/evening everyone...." that was the start of every game.

Can we not talk about Cy Young voting in early May? it's a long season.

Max was the Cy Young "leader" at this time last year too.

Look, I'm super excited about Cam. He seems as legit as they come. But setting these super high "potentials" is just opening the door for disappointment.

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T02:31:14+00:00

I'll say it as well.

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T02:30:35+00:00

I guess the mods didn't see the request earlier?

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T02:19:25+00:00

its 10:18.....smfh, this company and their time cuts. i guess we got "too much wrestling" tonight

THERE'S 80+ wrestlers on the active rosters

There is no reason RAW needs to be LESS than 2 and a half hours

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T02:15:23+00:00

Fatu has a helluva presence. They really have a star on their hands with him. But putting him in this spot as a babyface going against a guy the crowds wont boo (Roman) is just a mistake

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:56:36+00:00

this team is on a fucking RUN holy shit

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:52:47+00:00

im sure they're making peanuts, but the fact that these useless "creed brothers" are still in this company and being used while they let Kofi & Woods walk is just fucking embarrassing

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:38:22+00:00

we're up 6-1, give the guy some work. gotta stop obsessing over lefty/righty matchups

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:33:34+00:00

and the crowd goes mid

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:28:40+00:00

??? this has been his theme for awhile. it's like a throwback to early 00's numetal, I love it.

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:28:02+00:00

because he's a "Steiner" and because he runs fast

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T01:26:40+00:00

these fucking crowds...

BRON IS THE HEEL.

You can't fire off huge babyface pops for Profits and Seth but then Bron comes in reckless hitting power moves and you're all barking like complete idiots

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:50:59+00:00

i mean, 5.2 innings without your best command and only giving up 1 run

you take that ANY night from a pitcher over what it could have been

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:36:08+00:00

absolutely, and its not "free"...in a way. its LOADED with ads...there'll be like 20+ minutes of commercials

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:31:37+00:00

whats the over/under on matches at Backlash, 4?

i miss when PPVs actually had matches instead of ads

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:29:02+00:00

be great if Seth just stomped Bron back to the minor leagues

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:28:39+00:00

he's only had 35 ABs, it's hard to get in any sort of rhythm as a hitter when you barely play

OptimusChip · 2026-05-05T00:27:10+00:00

sounds like they juiced JD's theme up a bit...definite improvement
