gotta wait to see if Trivino is any good. if he is, just never acknowledge it, if he's bad then pretend to take a moral stand like when Chapman finally became bad

Turning instead to relievers who are not shitheads (at least to my knowledge):

If he doesn't end up signing and finishes his rehab without issue, he'd be a hell of a stretch-run wildcard for competing teams to add.

Why would anyone care about the 8th guy in a bullpen? The astros made a nazi the highest paid RP of all time.

Ahh so you don't have to be upset cause he's not that important, at least not as important as Verdugo or Stroman.

Am I supposed to take that in any way other than "every time I call out another team's player for being a shithead understand that I'd defend him the very second he got traded to the yankees?"

Darude - Adam Sandstorm

There's a difference between "The Yankees aren't a serious team and people should be fired cause they never win" and "The Yankees continuously employ assaulters and racists and everyone should be fired".

Its all fine and good to hate Josh Hader, but its super fuckin gross to use that as a way to score points against a team you hate while not even mentioning (and hell even saying getting Verdugo could be a good thing!) the dudes in the clubhouse that the Yankees constantly bring in.

wtf are you talking about? i literally defended zero yankee shitheads. why would i know about tweets that their 8th guy in the bullpen had 5 years ago? i have literally not spent 12 seconds in my life thinking about lou trevino lol

Cohen for the Mets to a certain extent, Seidler with the Padres but RIP, maaaaaaaaaybe the Rangers current ownership group.

The new CBA makes it pretty tough to just say "gently caress it" completely because of how you're penalized around the draft in addition to the taxes.
