Nabil Crismatt has pitched more than 70 innings for the 2021 Padres. He deserves a great deal of credit for his sub-3.00 ERA and for his remarkable ability to fill in in times of uncertainty, but this was not part of the plan.

It was the end of the world when the Padres borrowed $50m. But the dodgers just effectively borrowed $500m, to be paid back (with interest) in the years 2034-2043.

@BNightengale Important in that it's foolish. MLB requires photo ID to pick up tickets at will call, but does not think photo ID is necessary to vote? It seems that the legitimacy of our elections is not important to MLB shot callers.

Peter Seidler is the polar opposite of Dean Spanos. Peter is thin; Dean is fat. Peter is handsome; Dean is ugly. Peter is charming; Dean is obnoxious. Peter has huge 'nads; Dean has a microscopic weenie. Peter is a MAN; Dean is... not a man.

@KyleAGlaser I am certainly not advocating that they promote him to the big club and give him the lion's share of the catching duties, but he might be better than Nola, Sanchez, and Sullivan right now. And if he's not, it's probably close.

If any of Lesko, Bush, or Gonzalez pan out, Preller got fleeced. And if none of them pan out, Preller is a horseshit evaluator of amateur talent. It's one or the other.
