Cleveland Guardians (2026 Season Thread)

The kids are starting to show their stuff. Heck, Bazzana is up to .290 for his batting average and I think he started like 0 for 12.

I didn't realize he was so fast and a demon on the base paths. The lineup is actually balanced and can set the table (also love that they moved JRam up to the 2 hole....if Kwan and Rocchio keep doing what they're doing, watch out).

Also saw Ralphy Velazquez made it to Columbus at 20 years old. Boy, he could be the 40 HR bat we need in the lineup. Clippers lineup is so insanely loaded with Watson, Ralphy, Ingle, Huff, Kayfus, etc...probably the most encouraging the current and future offensive production has looked in a looong, long time.

With Armstrong and Walters set to get back to the pen, this team can somehow get a nice division lead early....didn't see that coming but I say that every year it seems.

2027 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

https://www.on3.com/rivals/dane-weber-250180/

New QB name to follow. His game reminds me of a young Johnny Manziel
1779204279740.png

Per Tony Gerdeman:
Reached out to a west coast personnel source. He told me "He's my favorite QB in the 2027 class." Hearing it's Cal vs. UCLA.

Per LR poster:
The west coast On3 folks said Fessler was at his school today and will be back on Wednesday. Probably on the verge of an offer

Dumbest Professional Team Nickname

Are we talking current or former? There were some weird-assed ones in the 70s. And Major League or also Minor League, because Minor League baseball has some doozies. Personally, I might go with the Jazz, which is a great name for New Orleans but they should have changed it when they left because the Utah Jazz makes about as much sense as...the Los Angeles Lakers does.

But for just dumbfuck names? How about the Phillies? Isn't that like calling us the Cleveland Clevies? Like you couldn't come up with something better than that?

2027 CA QB Brady Edmunds is a Buckeye!!!

It seems Edmunds is still saying the right things. Could be a ploy for more $, dunno. But from my experience in life, if there's smoke, then there's fire. Totally get the kid protecting himself from 'the talk'. We read about the recruit signing with someone else late in the game, but not as much about the school telling the kid there's no room in the inn for him when it's too late to find another place. Writers talk about the glitz and glamor of recruiting, but there's an ugly underside as well.
I don't think Edmunds has the leverage to pull such a ploy. I feel like if he were to do that, they would tell him to hit the road. The way they're pursuing other QBs it seems like they're content settling for him in the class but they want someone else

Texas Tech Red Raiders (sponsored by BET365)

NCAA is trying to do what's right. TT and their booster are the ones taking it to court.
Oh I agree but no faith they’ll stand their ground in the face of pressure from boosters, universities, or the conference.

Just never know. There was a team that essentially fixed football games for 2.5 years and they got nothing. Then there was a team with an ineligible player and they vacated wins lol

No one knows what’s real with the NCAA

I agree. The Senators had the sense to change their name to the Rangers when they moved from Washington to Texas. The Expos to the Nationals when they moved from Montreal to Washington. Names like the Braves, Athletics, Dodgers, Giants.... are interchangable to different cities but you're right, Lakers and Jazz do not. You could argue that the Padres, if they ever moved, would have to change their name because they're named after the priests in the old Spanish missions.

People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

No violation, just maybe don't twist/dislocate your ankle requiring 4 surgeries and an erector set cage to be screwed into your leg and foot. It doesn't feel good.
On the plus side, 3 surgeries down, and I get to go home for a while today.
A year ago I was a split second away from jumping off of a container four feet off of the ground as if I was still 18. Luckily I suddenly remembered that I'm no longer 18.
