LGJr tucked into the bottom of the order probably in the hope he faces a lefty only once or maybe twice.
Young held out. Could have LGJr and dh'd Lile or Wood

They mean the next youth movement. This one doesn’t align with the time line

The Red Loft / Re: Washington Wizards (2025-26)
« Last post by HalfSmokes on Yesterday at 05:54:52 pm »He does not fit with the Wizards timeframe. If the Wizards were in the play in and probably a first round exit you would be complaining about that. Like you did for many years when that was what they did. And rightly so to complain. The goal should not be barely making it in or maybe a second round exit. We had enough of those. In fact three of those between 2013 and 2017.
And the team was not tanking when they drafted him. He was a Tommy pick. And I know we all hate Tommy. Do you think we should have taken Deni instead of Halliburton? cmon.
Tanking with a good player - clearly impossible. OKC never could have pulled it off with SGA on the roster. Even Utah kept Markkanen. It’s the lack of return for him that bothers. We’re tanking, but mostly with our own picks which doesn’twork unless you’re San Antonio with the league putting its thumb on the scale.

The Major League Baseball Players Association fired chief operating officer Xavier James and its head of human resources, Michael O'Neill, with cause today, sources tell me and @DVNJr. The firings came after an internal investigation spurred by the DOJ looking into the MLBPA.

Longtime major leaguer Chris Capuano will take over as chief operating officer at the MLBPA after the firing of Xavier James, a source tells ESPN. Ian Penny, a senior adviser to executive director Bruce Meyer, will handle HR duties following the firing of Michael O’Neill.
