ETA: I bring this up because Bauer's ridiculous suspension got erased and now he's an active player again.
I was gonna say I'd be all over that, but then I looked at his contract. He only has a year left and that year it really expensive. It's probably double our payroll! Jk kinda. If the Dodgers would send cash then I would take him.

Chances are almost zero of the Royals making the playoffs, so there is no need of paying a guy a ton of money when we're not going anywhere and Sherman would 100% not take that contract on.

The Royals could get Bauer for 200K and a bag of balls. He is persona non grata in the league, and they play in LA where persona means more than anything else. I think he would be amenable to coming here and I think he would thrive, goddamnit.

You met George fuckin Brett BWillie? And you're just gonna make a passing mention of it as an aside. Weak, bro.

Start a new thread in the lounge entitled "I met George Brett and this one weird thing happened" and you'd get literally millions of views. Instead you're hiding your best stories like some sort of squirrel storing up those acorns for the winter.

He didn't meet George Brett. He said he met one of George's buddies. He should have said he met an ex royals player, but he's trying to make it sound more credible by saying it was one of George's friends that said it. He's full of shit probably.

Well I dont like to name drop or tell any of the stories he told me to anyone cuz probably wouldn't want me to. Some funny shit he told me. He was a backup infielder in the 85 squad.

I have a golf story that will put Bwillies dan quisenberry stories to shame. So I'm on clairmont, a 9 hole course in Portland that isn't even reknowned. No one really plays there. It's more of a finesse course than a driving course and the young kids love their drivers, so they don't come.

For that reason, I expected my 2some of me and the late Robbbie to be just that: a 2some. But no, we got paired up and so were a 4some.

Real old guy, one of our new pair. But my guy Robbie recognized him immediately. It was the OG founder of the Blazers. The NBA team. He told tales.

I cant imagine he is still alive.

Right handed reliever Nick Wittgren has signed with the Royals. It is a minor league contract with an invite to Big League Camp.
