Shameless to be outperformed by a team that routinely sells off its best players.

How many more days until Seafaire? At least we'll get to watch the Blue Angels. Until then, you can find me at home, watching the paint dry on the house.

Makes all the "Sea us Rise" stuff this offseason slightly embarrassing.

Munoz flat out Sucks.
To think that people were saying last year that our bullpen was set becuase we had Munoz and Giles locked in. :roll:
Well thankfully Giles has been a lot better than Munoz.
Don't know about it being set, but they did make their additions to this season's BP last season, gambling they be healthy. Munoz certainly looked to be a nice piece
I think most of us were in on grabbing an elite lefty like Brad hand or Chafin
Chafin 2.89 ERA 133 ERA+ in Detroit 6 m, million :roll: ( this is especially painful because A's had like a 4 or 5 million $ option that they declined so we could have traded a bucket of balls so Oak did not have to pay the 500k buyout. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Hand 1.59 ERA 256 ERA+ also 6 milion :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

And the thing is BP arms are always getting injured Giles, Streck, Swanson, just to name a few this year and it is young. But we could definitely have used one if not both elite left-handed guys I mentioned.

I think Jerry really, really, really doesn't like spending on relievers, though he is paying Ken Giles. But maybe one moderately pricey reliever is his limit.

Like too many of us, I have a perfect O-for Gamethread record.
I feel like 1972 Steve Carlton with my 3-2 record.

Last season we beat the A's the last TWELVE times we played them and finished with 90 wins.

This off season they had a fire sale and planned to tank and we "went for it"

This season they have a better record than we do and just won the series.

How is that possible.

Perfect! We might need urgent care after celebrating our WS title in the 2022 Fall classic!
