Adam Wainwright and Nelson Cruz both retired, right? Rich Hill is technically a free agent, so he is the only MLB player older than I am.

Apparently Bauer pitched a simulated game in his own gym against some Barstool blogger dweebs and gave up multiple hits, then posted about it on Twitter. He is elite at self-owns

Puig had the good sense to drop her, which is funny Edit: in terms of Bauer yeah he’s a self deluded dipshit who can not admit what he did wrong and still thinks he was a victim of overreaction. Shaikin did a decent interview with him in the LA Times last week where Shaikin conducted it as an owner asking Bauer to justify why he should get signed. Bauer comes off terribly, it’s clear why no one will touch him. bawfuls fucked around with this message at 21:11 on Feb 26, 2024 |

despite some of our recent history, I don't think the Cubs org entertained the thought of signing him. That said, a small part of my happiness with the Bellinger signing is that it almost certainly took us out of the "running" for him both financially and in terms of roster space. We'll trip over our own dicks in a million other ways, this doesn't need to be one of them

I looked him up on b-r and was really confused until I saw he was traded to LA in the Glasnow deal I guess he's the Buxton insurance for the year.

All Bauer has had to do is stop being stupid and he'd be hundreds of millions of dollars richer. He has yet to stop being stupid. I would not want to be his agent.
