It sure would take the wind out of my sails.
That will happen when Super Slo Mo and The Marmot leave.

Why is being disappointed a teammate he is close to being traded “tone deaf”?

Helsey, Matz, and Maton have been good this year.cardstatman wrote: ↑31 Jul 2025 20:18 pm The players are the ones who dictated that the white towel should be thrown. They were getting pummelled for the past month.
The bullpen was the only playoff worthy group. Now 37.5% of the bullpen gets to go to the playoffs.
Marmol successfully guided 12% of his team to the playoffs!
LoL. Their play took the wind out of any sails. They knew it was just passing gas, not a windtokyojoe1954 wrote: ↑31 Jul 2025 19:15 pm Are the remaining players bummed about throwing in the towel?

They see many guys come and go....while getting paid millions, or at least 100,000 a month, to play a game and travel in luxury, none of us can really comprehend it.
Bringing up golf isn't tone deaf? Maybe he should focus a bit more on baseball, which he sucks at right now and is stealing millions.Stlcardsblues wrote: ↑31 Jul 2025 20:32 pmWhy is being disappointed a teammate he is close to being traded “tone deaf”?

I think most players will be excited for the three pitchers that will get promoted to the MLB roster. They will get MLB meal money, paychecks and hotels. Guys leave. New guys arrive. Baseball is a continuous series of adjustments.tokyojoe1954 wrote: ↑31 Jul 2025 19:15 pm Are the remaining players bummed about throwing in the towel?

Well, not any more is that likely."First time in a couple years where it feels like we're coming to the ballpark ready to win a ballgame instead of coming to the ballpark hoping for something good to happen. It's a different vibe, for sure."

But don't assume a huge regression from the BP.
Could happen.
But maybe not.
O' Brien has been every bit as good.
So has Svanson.
Leahy has been better than expected.
Graceffo and Granillo should get more looks now.
Romero is still around and has improved as the season has developed - he is no stranger to late innings.
Let's see what happens.
I said last year Nado WAS a good player, but with a loser mentality. Yeah he just needs to be DFA’ed, he is a massive has beenicon wrote: ↑31 Jul 2025 19:48 pmI could not believe it when I read that from Arenada. Talk about tone deaf.
