Darnit. Got burned.

Showed on my feed and I thought I had already unfollowed these folks. My bad.

Ranger fans you're not dreaming! The Rangers are the World Series Champions!

I am not a fan of RoboUmps for the simple reason I think it will change pitching. I've said, like video games, you adapt to what is called. You fill find more breaking pitches and more pitchers who try to game the calls programmed to be made.

Having said that... the reason I quit watching the NBA was because they had 2 sets of Fouls. Jordan could walk from mid-court and the Refs made SuperStars. If a player missed a shot a phantom foul would be called. A&M had a Tourney game (S16?) a few years ago. Clear foul on an A&M shooter that wasn't called at the end of the game. The commentators said, "You just can't call that at the end of the game." Very next year, same situation except reversed. It was a less aggression foul by an A&M player at the end of the game and the Refs called it. Commentators were like, "You just have to call that. You have to give the player a chance to shoot."

Too many influential calls are being shown to sway games. Calling fouls on Nowitski early in G1 and G2 against Miami in the Finals was critical. Not because they were bad calls, but because now you've taken Nowitski out of the game. For a P... if you aren't giving them the right calls, they feel they have to make different throws the rest of the game.

Come on now, you want refs to call ticky tack fouls like this? I mean, he's only got his hand around Sloan's wrist. You can't call that at the end of the game...







Good Lord I forgot about that.

I'm going to be pretty upset if they trade Walcott.

If we trade Walcott, let alone Walcott and Porter, it better be for young controllable MLB talent or veteran all star level player(s) for longer than a rental.

Walcott and Porter better get us:

Snell
Hader
Soto

Porter is listed as the starter now

Agree. I'm a little more willing to trade Porter if we were to get controllable pitcher in return, but Walcott feels like a superstar prospect similar to Elly De La Cruz or Julio Rodriguez. If we trade him it better be some absolute stud.

If we're getting Scherzer for either Porter or Walcott, NYM better be picking up all of his $43M salary in 2024.
Tksymm7

Absolutely. They better be picking up some hefty tab. Scherzer is a HOFer, but man giving up both Walcott and Porter feels like a raw deal.

Anyone else keep refreshing your ESPN, LSB, and Texags in hopes of some news?

Waiting to see if he actually pitches.

Scherzer's advanced metrics are still really good but the results haven't been that great this year. Not thrilled with idea of giving Walcott or Porter for him.

Porter must be out cuz he has started his game

Walcott is really the one I don't want to give up…at all.

Unless they screwed up, yes... he is pitching right now @ DEast.

Same but he's only 17. I'm of the opinion he's going to a future super star. Going to be several years before we know.

Walcott was in fact pulled:

Are we going to be depressed or surprised (in a good way)?

I don't think we are getting any of the Padres guys. I can see Verlander or Scherzer.
