I can't wait to see him in action. I hate the Braves with a passion but I can appreciate a great pitcher. Hopefully he lives up to his hype and all indications are that he will.

Phils/Braves weekend series in Atlanta mid-late August if you are interested in a road trip Scrum.

(Braves had a nice pick up yesterday in MClouth also)

Phillies can suck my balls. When i play MLB 09 The Show i refuse to lose to the Phillies. I HATE THEM. Not as bad as the Mets though. The media slobbering on the Mets is amusing.

NAte's a very good player and a great player for a Pirate. This means we have traded away an outfield of McLouth, Nady and Bay in less than 12 months. Wierd part was they had resigned Nate to a long contract this off season. I would bet that Jack Wilson and Adam LaRoche are already packing because they will be next.

I do have to say that all in all this trade will make them better. The Pirates are in no way playoff bound for at least 2 more years and this move gets us a pitcher who should move up to the bigs this year and some much needed quality in the minors.

D*mn, didn't realize they moved the whole outfield till you said that. Adam LaRoche has to be catching the eye of a lot of teams. Kid has really turned it on.

    • From Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/nutshellsportz.bsky.social/post/3mo3rkrcezs2e  A look at Run Threat Rate across the NFL Run Threat Rate is the percentage of plays where a team either runs the ball or uses play action. This compares each team’s rate when leading or tied versus when trailing to show how much they abandon the run when playing from behind.
    • That's the current dilemma on both parties at the moment. If Ickey comes back too soon, he won't be 100% and his play will suffer. Leading to a potential decrease in his contract. If Ickey is unable to play and sits the entire 2026 season, his contract will still take the same hit since it tells all 32 team that he is not fully recovered. On the Panthers side, I'm sure they would want to keep Ickey if he is fully recovered but he is obviously in a contract year. They don't want to re-sign him to a massive deal since it be too risky and they know if Ickey is able to return to form.  Best case scenario, the Panthers wants to offer Ickey a 1-2 year heavily incentive based prove it deal. However, Ickey would most likely decline the offer and test the market as  another team can come in and offer Ickey a better deal if they are desperate enough for O-line help.
    • They have been giving him a lot of snaps at RT to give TMo some relief in camp. I think that will continue for the time being.
