At least most/all of camp, based on the fact it's a PTO and not an actual contract. Was wondering if they'd look to add a veteran #3 regardless of Woll's status. Thought they might consider claiming Ingram if Woll was going to miss real time.

They don't. The playoff loophole has been tightened significantly (also, Florida needs to shed salary at some point to activate Tkachuk off LTIR - if Barkov is out longer than that, they get to kick that can down the road some, but, it basically leaves them with their hands somewhat tied if he's...

Easier to control their matchups.

At least they’re not going all the way down to the wire. They’ve given us time to accept it. And, it’s not even the biggest collapse in the league this season, so that’s nice.

I mean, that does seem on brand for them.

Doubtful be gets start in the LDS, but LCS and WS, he might be the #4, if the Jays get there’s. unless Yesavage kills it again.

Yeah. I get that. He's played it up a lot, but, I just don't believe he'd be willing to put his life even remotely at risk like that. Shots were definitely fired and someone was killed. That's enough for me to believe the attempt was real. The injury, though? Likely not from a bullet but from...

I don't know about that - I think the attempt was real, but the damage Trump suffered was not from the bullet (considering how quickly he recovered, lack of obvious scaring, etc.) or it really barely grazed him. The photo of the supposed bullet zipping past him, though . . . that always felt...

It's definitely about if he wants to stay and for how long he wants to commit. Oilers will definitely give him the max if he wants it, but does he want to commit to them long-term if he decides it's not time to move on?

They certainly read like something out of a bad romance novel. They could absolutely be real, but it would not surprise in the slightest to find out they're fake/doctored/etc. It's just too neat and tidy.

Well, whatever happens from here, I’m impressed. Quite the first 5 innings for the kid.

Hart or Dube, for sure.

We're starting to see more of the negative impacts of the hyperpartisanism that has become so much worse over the last 20 years. It's not about simple political disagreements anymore, we have sides living in different realities. The culture wars that have been pushed on the public to distract...

Also, that's been demonstrably not true. He routinely takes guys out when there doesn't seem to be a good reason. For instance, there was no real reason to take Nance out on Wednesday. He came out because there was a lefty coming up, but, if you trust your guys in any situation, that shouldn't...

As bad as the bullpen has been recently, Schneider’s bullpen management might be worse.

Matthews was never going to go along with it, so it was a non-opportunity.

Were both legitimately hurt until late in the season, but hung on for a little longer. Not really equivalent scenarios. They might have been able to come back for a few games, not many weeks worth, which is what you're suggesting for Matthews. Also, Vegas barely used their LTIR space the year...

You can leave someone on LTIR for a shorter period when it's known they could play before game 1. You can't place them there without a legit injury that prevents them from playing when you put them there or leave them there for months when they're healthy enough to go. That is a fact. Also, the...

Sure, except, without a medical professional signing off on it, the league won't allow it. The league is also allowed to get a second opinion on any LTIR placement they feel might be questionable, and, given that Matthews was healthy enough to play and the league was clearly looking to crack...

If he legitimately needed to go LTIR, he wouldn't have been able to dress as much as he did. He was clearly injured, but he was also clearly at a healthy enough level to not warrant LTIR.
