Lefty Grove won 31 games in 1931, on only 30 starts. He went 27-3 as a starter, relieved 11 times and went 4-1.

John Wehner is not a Waner.

All kidding aside, maybe they could have an heir of the Waner’s , or Pie Traynor throw out the first pitch on Opening Day.

Re: Pham and Mazya or Mayza

I don't think Huntington signed anyone multi-year until Russell Martin in the 2012-13 offseason, after Huntington had been in place for five full seasons. They had a pretty good nucleus together by then, but no internal options at catcher - Rod Barajas and Michael McKenry had caught literally every...

Re: Pham and Mazya or Mayza

This regime has not signed a single free agent on a multi year deal. They are afraid to do it, or the Owner doesn’t permit it. I don't think Huntington signed anyone multi-year until Russell Martin in the 2012-13 offseason, after Huntington had been in place for five full seasons. They had a pretty...

You try [edit] to focus on the young players who they have to move up and play, and how it's progress just not to have Grandal, Tellez, or Taylor on the roster. Then they do something like this.

And if he can't help, maybe they can send for Abraham Nunez. I'm sure Lloyd McLendon remembers how to call on him. He only did it every frickin' night.
One of the more perplexing phenomena of the 20-year streak.

Re: 2024 Off-Season Thread

We should all be used to this. For the past 10 years we've been told that the goal is to get better, to win. And yet in each offseason, the team made little to no attempt to do so. They're lying liars who lie. I think they really are trying to win. They're just focused on improvement from guys like...
