mcmagic posted:Well it sounds like it's over right? He wasn't charged, he settled with her and it's not going to court. We'll likely never know the full truth. Here's the thing, though: There was more than one woman involved, and each had similar claims of extreme/visible injury and trauma. There are photos of bruising, and so on. So. Are we being asked to believe that each case involved a woman who asked Bauer to have violent sex with them, then changed their story and tried to squeeze him for money?

Sydin posted:Also like, not to swerve into kinkshaming or anything but even if Bauer is telling the truth and everything he did with every girl was 100% consensual all around, that in order to get off Bauer needs to beat the poo poo out of his partner says all you need to know about him and what kind of person he is, I think. I can believe Bauer uses whatever website/app to find something for his kink, but there's clearly been a violation of consent. That's a big difference, and reason enough to toss the guy into a volcano regardless of whatever he does in bed. mcmagic posted:I shouldn't have even posted the bauer poo poo. It's a waste of time. Sorry thread. Being open to discuss things and reframe your thinking is never a bad idea.

The shame is that he really would have loved this Phillies team, among other things. Goons, go with your dad to ballgames, it's the best. One of the best memories I have with my dad is a trip to a Phillies game, and sitting in 30-degree weather to watch Kevin Frandsen walk off the Royals.

mcmagic posted:Would you want the Yankees sign to Juan Soto if he was a FA this year? Of course you would. So why shouldn't they trade for him? Juan Soto plays in a pitcher's park yet has a poor negative dWAR, the worst on the team by far. Look up OF rankings on Fangraphs, he's not very good. And holy poo poo is Esteury Ruiz bad. How can someone that fast be so lovely at fielding?

Dinosaurs! posted:Wouldn’t a pitcher’s park be worse for Soto because there are more balls for him to make plays on? Defensive runs saved takes everything into account - so his poor rating there means he's generally bad at most, if not all, aspects of defense. Petco being pitcher-friendly gives him more opportunities to succeed/fail. Petco has a lot of foul territory (if I remember right), which I would assume should give him at least some occasional easy plays. Even more interesting is that the guy next to him (Trent Grisham) is good, and should occasionally help him out. But nope.

live with fruit posted:Grisham and Tatis are elite defenders so being worse than them doesn't mean much. Yeah, but I think the point was that if he's well below average defensively at age 25, his decline may be pretty steep as he gets older. And my understanding was that defensive stats can be affected by being surrounded by good defenders.

Eric the Mauve posted:The Padres aren't likely to be looking for just prospects in a Soto trade. They're going to want cheap(ish) major league players. Plus prospects, ideally. It depends how many teams decide they've gotta have him what they end up getting. Could the Padres deal Soto to New York for cash and picks alone? Granted, both would have to be significant, but it both allows the Padres to run with what they have and keep the farm going for a while.
