    More apropos than ever...but...who is the closer now ? The closer by committee concept is pure bullshit, imo.

    idk if position players need to play more than one position why should pitching be any different?
    are starters really starters anymore?
    are women really women or just chicks w dicks?
    the lines are blurring
    no country for old men friendo

    You don't want to hear it, but I really wouldn't be surprised if we go by committee.

    If they decide to name someone the closer, my guess is Trienen.

    dear kenley,
    there are guys like taylor, who had higher offers, but chose to stay in LA for less
    and then guys like you, who actually publicly state they won’t give the dodgers a hometown discount
    never mind the team’s prior willingness to convert you into a pitcher when, as a catcher, you couldn’t hit half your weight (and then whining and crying about it, before they helped transform you into an elite reliever)
    and never mind how roberts and the front office stood by you as you blew save after save — including three straight last year, resulting in you getting booed off the mound at dodger stadium
    but then you recovered and pitched, arguably, as well as you ever had
    which leads to an interesting point…
    the best you’ve ever pitched, both times, was heading into free agency
    i can certainly understand the incentive
    but imagine if you had applied yourself your entire career
    atlanta was smart to offer year a one year deal
    it will be interesting to see how you perform
    you’ll probably be motivated and start off well, but will you be able to sustain it for an entire season
    and, if you struggle, will the braves be as patient as roberts & co were?
    probably not
    you walked away from a cush’ job with a perennial WS contender because your desire to be THE guy trumps everything else
    i realize this isn’t an equal scenario, but we got freddie from the braves and they got you
    who do you think won that deal?
    which teams’ fans do you think are happier about it?
    i’ve only been to georgia once, on a brief layover, so i don’t have much personal knowledge of the state
    but for your sake i hope they have a lot of am/pm’s to help your fat ass through this transition
    because the mets and phillies are going to feast (no pun) whenever you come in

    that’s tough because he is irreplaceable as a setup man
    who would take his spot? bazooka? victor?
    idk

    Yeah. Right...I forgot about him. I do think ( although I don't know for sure) that closer by committee is much less successful than the established door slammer.
    But I'm confident that Dave will have other ideas and will do something to mess with whatever works anda have the utmost confidence in...whoever.
    Like Tony Soprano's father said in a flashback on a rerun the other night, during a heated argument with his wife, " you're nothing but a goddam albacore around my neck"...
    Dave.

    might have been here but someone said the store owner actually is the best actor in the scene
    seems like he's just some outsider sucked into the vortex of insanity and not an actor at all
    oh and my favorite part of the scene is "you married into it"

    How incredibly lame of Kenley. We gave him multiple chances at various positions throughout his career. We helped him through his health crisis. We have him a WS.

    And all he can do is make some fake narrative about being a lifelong Braves fan?

    No love for LA? No love for CK, who I thought he was tight with? No love for the organization? The team?

    Fuck him. Ingrate. I hope he gets shelled and benched.

    lol
    you can give a blackrobe as many degrees as he can print but you can never take the black robe off his back

    remember that old joke about how nobody ever expects the spanish inquisition?
    that is because the blackrobes invented social justice and wokeism
    and their programming turns men into emotional thinkers
    instead of logical ones

    when paul says somewhere to someone in some letter to some church that some people shouldnt be allowed to hold leadership offices he wasnt necessarily talking about women but also of emotionally minded men
    the ones that jesus had warned about that wore cilice robes like the child sacrificing cannibal animal worshipping priests of catalhoyuk who would infiltrated the priestly caste of israel and everywhere else they could worm their advisors into the ears of kings and lords
    thats enougn sunday school now back to the island boys...

    island boys think emotionally first and foremost
    everybody knows that
    what they dont know is how they got that way
    in the galley of jesuit priests who didnt know what else to do with their stolen booty
    that is how

    human trafficking was the second oldest business after the first business of priests siring little bastards with recovering prostitute nuns
    then fucking the little bastards too and not wanting to see the little gayboys because it reminded the priests of their own sin
    they keep the girls they molest because they are easy to make big money internally
    this spice trade spans eastern europe through france and into spaign and out the ports o call of portugal
    and of course back again to today from cuba to ukraine and anywhere in the world they can drop a school
    jeez im back in sunday school again my bad
    but fuck it its the right time of the season
    its sweeps!

    we got the white robed pope being played by a blackrobe for the first time in history
    what a coincidence!
    and a member of the thespian tribe is pretending hes a lacedaemon giving speeches against the barbarians from the east thinking hes king leo but looking more and more like the antichrist threatening jacob with nuclear destruction and calling him traitor and declaring the people of ukraine the true holocaust heirs as he pushes the governments of the world to unite behind him so he can lead us to glorious armageddon once and for all
    another coincidence!

    how's that for a hot take!
    its not really that hot
    this script been in development hell since before world war Zero
    and hell is as cold a place as siberia
    luckily im part polar bear

    fictitious means verboten
    and frenetic means unchained
    the rest of the story means beelzebub the lord of flies
    because flies flock to the smell coming out of my mouth
    flies love the shit that i be spewing
    if i was beelzebub
    but im not him

    first bz says im a sage and now you comparing me to jesus just like he was called out as being full of shit
    oh my... my ego is going planet size thanks to yall inflating my stock
    i havent felt so good since... well i dont want to talk bout it but it was like four scars and 7 years ago.
    my garden has been all but dead for a few seasons now
    but theres still a few plants here and there
    too bad for you im not beelzebub or else i would fly to your garden
    as the lord of flies it would be the only way i could fertilize this task
    if i was beelzebub
    but im not him

    i said it twice dont make me say it thrice!
    or beetlejuice will reveal his final form
