People use stock as collateral all the time in finance. But we can’t tax it? That seems odd.

In fairness, we got another 11-12 likely on the roster who probably make $20M combined. 20 of the 26 for $170M ain’t bad. 🤷‍♂️

The idea of firing Preller because our 3 All Stars (Tati, Manny, Cro) went - combined 2-30 is insane. Preller did his part. He can’t hit for them.

Thx for sharing - this brief is on point and the distinguishing facts (FCC actually has pending action in front of it now as Carr made his threat) make it far more agregious than what the Manhattan institute argued was an abuse of power in the NRA case. Hypocrites, all of them.

You think he should have pulled him? Seems like giving him the 6th was the right move to me? 🤷‍♂️

Did he sexually assault anyone?

Joe, keep bringing it. We have a big tent over here on the left and you are always welcome.

I appreciate your views Mark. Ignore the haters and keep civil discourse alive. 👍🏽

Sadly these dunces will likely be appointed to run a govt agency in the next 3 years.

The mental gymnastics required to hate on Preller and the current Padre team is impressive. Reminiscent of Bulls fans in ‘85 who hated their team because of the guard from NC who didn’t pass enough.

Wasn’t Trump’s rally on January 6th the most violent day in DC in like 50 years?

Agreed. Only one hard hit ball in that inning. Suarez is fine.

In fairness, it’s far more understandable for atheists to feel confident in their position since there is literally zero evidence to the contrary.

Tough gig. Blamed for the losses, no credit when they win.

Pads didn’t lose. So credit to Shildt?

Been reading & enjoying mensrea’s takes since the Union Tribune forums days. Smart dude but the doomerism is too much. Padre fans hating on this team & the efforts by the front office are either trolling or being contrarians for shtick.

But racism is indeed an indictment of us as a society and people. 🤷‍♂️

Are you sure those racist bigots elected those Democrats? Seems more likely that they were simply outvoted by non-racist voters.

The Padres payroll in 1998 was 9th highest in all of baseball that year. It was a great year! But Towers didn’t win the chip, which is the standard you seem to be holding AJ to. 🤷‍♂️

Tommy Wright @tommywright3.bsky.social · Aug 1

Like all the titles Padre GMs won in the 60 years prior to AJ?

Miller is controlled for 4 seasons after this. The idea that this closes the window after this year defies reality. 🤷‍♂️

Tommy Wright @tommywright3.bsky.social · Jul 31

Padre homer here, and while stretching Miller out is an option, I’m absolutely fine with having a stud shoving 104mph at the back of the pen cost controlled the next 4 yrs.

Preller will find more De Vrieses the next few winters. That’s what he does. #TeamAJ

I hope we don’t lose in the NLDS. But if we do, I won’t blame the GM. Baseball is hard, there’s a lot of luck involved, & margins are extremely thin in a short series. AJ continues to put a winning, exciting, WS contending team on the field year after year. I’m more than OK with that.

The team is performing, and has been for years. About to make the playoffs for the 4th time in 6 seasons. This is literally the winningest period in franchise history.
