This is just a mess for the organization. While your here, do you like Zucker?

I think this would be ideal tbh.

And at the moment he hasn’t been great, but again, small sample size. People on here judge trades way too fast. How many times have we seen trades look really good at first and then faulter, or vice versa? Edmonton looked pretty good after moving hall for Larson in 2017, that changed quick. So many examples of that. Gotta let things play out.

people should just delete twatter off their phone.

There is 0 evidence of any of this total garbage.

While I have no doubt they took the trade keys away from JR which is what forced him out and have said that before. This........ain't the reason why.
