Unlikely. Bruce Sherman has no reason to sell when he is pocketing easy money every year

For some reason I’m still following the team on instagram, and when a few of their posts have appeared, I’ve looked at the comments. 99% of them are negative, commenting about how they’ve done absolutely nothing.

I’m anticipating attendance cratering and hope it does to show Bruce & co that people will react to being inept and doing nothing (though he’ll take it the opposite way and cut further).

That said, I thought the same thing last year, but there seems to be a hangover affect from the previous season, so I’m guessing that we’ll see the affect on attendance this year, especially with them doing literally nothing.

The Instagram comments are hilarious lol. Bendix probably is doing what’s best long term for the teaM by losing 100 games until 2028, but the way him And Bruce have obfuscated the truth and treated everyone like idiots in their PR has really been so bad

For a second I thought you were talking about Kim Ng. How ironic and hilarious that would have been.

Can't wait for us to sign some other guy to a minors deal that was last in the majors like 5 years ago, all while Bendix tries to peddle his BS "we've put the best team together and are excited for the team's future*".

*in or after the 2057 season**.

**maybe

This is what I don't understand - if you're going to do this BS 857th rebuild, why are we not signing people to trade at the deadline for prospects to speed this process up?

Probably because that means spending on signing those people, and it also means more people to pay later.

If Bendix, my lord and saviour, is going to trade with the Rays again any time soon, I hope he tries to get Tre Morgan.

Keith Law ranked our system 18th. So exciting.
