2023 trade deadline

You know how bad the central is, Cleveland traded their best player a SP 2.34 ERA. One game out and they became sellers. They probably figure "don't need much to win here."
 
I?m not that mad at ERod for exercising his NTC. I?m livid with this front office for not knowing he was going to say no. A massive strike against Scott Harris in my early impressions of him. Feels like the same old shit.
 
Fuck Harris. First trade deadline and the clown was totally clueless.
 
A Giants fan friend of mine is inquiring if this blunder on the part of Harris is a fireable offense? I will say that Harris loves to lecture us on the particulars of what he expects out of his ball players in detailed sabermetric terms. And then he turns around and pulls this boner. Thoughts?

Needless to say, my friend is experiencing extreme schadenfreude at the moment over LA's loss of Rodriguez.
 
Scott Harris quote after E Rod blocked the deal

"We're excited to get Eduardo back," Harris said. "He sent a very strong message that he likes it here."

LOL
 
"We reached a deal he was not comfortable with.'' Harris appears to be incompetent and negligent. And oblivious to the self-incriminating nature of this statement. Was he even aware of the terms of ERod's contract when he made it?
 
Not sure why we even were discussed as sellers when you think about it. Remember guys, the rebuild is 100% over! Shoutout to that brain dead assclown Chris Illitch
 
Harris just didn?t understand the assignment at all. I can?t believe he tried to trade him to a team he had a no trade contract with. Just makes zero sense. Just beyond dumb. Same stuff this stupid organization does over and over again.

That part wasn't dumb figuring most give their okay. But Harris should have asked him, YESTERDAY.
 
Tigers president Scott Harris said Eduardo Rodriguez was exercising his contractual rights to reject a trade and "shouldn't be the villain in any of this."

Said he's glad he'll be pitching for the Tigers every five days in the final months of the season.

Scott Harris explains the decision to keep Eduardo Rodriguez in Detroit, after he invoked his 10-team no-trade clause that included the Los Angeles Dodgers.
