    Possibly the worst off-season ever, based on net value lost.

    in all seriousness…
    fuck this organization
    i’ll root for a couple guys i like (homo), but i honestly don’t care how the team does
    in fact, i almost hope they fail
    call me a fair-weather or disloyal fan if you like, but i’ve been a fan since the mid-1960’s so i think i’ve earned the right to tell the organization — none of whom were here throughout most of my fandom — to go fuck themselves
    i have seen a great many things during my time as a dodger fan and i have never been so disappointed
    so go mookie, freddie, kersh, et al
    but to friedman, walter, kasten, roberts, magic, billie jean… i hope you sleep well in your ivory towers, and you better fucken hope none of your personal preferences, desires, fantasies or fetishes ever become public knowledge
    thanks for being content with one (shortened season) championship and then mailing it in
    fucken hypocrites

    oh, and so they apparently told bauer yesterday they were going to keep him and then suddenly changed their minds
    smFh
    • "I sat down with Dodgers leadership in Arizona yesterday who told me that they wanted me to return and pitch for the team this year.

    What's going to be wild is seeing him sign with one of the contenders for free and help them win a World Series.

    Totally feels like a Houston signing, tbh.

    FWIW, Bowden and Samson say he'll never pitch for an MLB team again. They believe no owner will touch him. If that's true, it'll be more palatable, but I'm doubting it. We'll see.

    or the pads
    wherever he goes he going to shove
    dude has always brought it, and he’ll be motivated to prove the doubters and haters (see LAD) wrong
    and I have no doubt he will

    for me nothing about this is palatable
    he got cancelled by woke assholes in a free country where we're supposedly innocent till proven guilty
    time for pitchforks and shovels and let's bury this shit once and for all

    According to Bauer or his rep? I would insert allegedly in place of apparently.

    Palatable for me just from a fiscal perspective - that we wouldn't be paying for someone to rack up wins for an opponent. I agree that the woke shit leading to his cancellation is bullshit. And yet, I don't fully excuse Bauer because he has to be smarter than that when he has so much on the line. Definitely his ego cost him in the end, and from that standpoint we could be better off without him.

    so its basically saying he deserves it cause he didn't say sorry like the legion of black and blue wife beaters still playing
    i agree 100% he should have known better and as young men most of us don't an make mistakes
    let the punishment fit the crime though and nothing will convince me he isn't getting a steaming pile of shit for being outspoken toward mlb and boyfred who's likely a pedo
    ozuna beats his wife and follows that w DUI but hey he said he's sorry?
    i feel people in the organization were fighting for him but ultimately caved and can be fairly sure who didn't want him back but we'll likely never know

    awesome
    :sarcasm:
    • The Dodgers lost 21.3 WAR from 2022 to free agency — and they’ve added only 6.9. That drop-off of 14.3 WAR is by far the most in MLB.

    serious question
    has there ever been a manager who has done less with as much talent than roberts?
    bobby cox comes to mind, but i think you could argue those braves teams weren’t as deep
