The "Mights" begin: Everyone, everything, everybody, everywhere, all at once, might be moving.

 

The annual pre-Thanksgiving wave of "mights..." and they're all true. 

The Mariners might want Gleyber. 

"The Mariners have interest in Torres and have bullpen arms that should interest the Yankees even after using Erik Swanson to land another mid-order righty bat  from Toronto in Teoscar Hernandez.”

The Mets might want Verlander.

“(Justin) Verlander is a prominent possibility for the Mets if deGrom departs, and a source said the team is considering the veteran right-hander, who last week won his third American League Cy Young award.”

The Dodgers might chase Judge.

 "At first, it seemed like the Yankees and Giants would be the primary suitors, with the Dodgers on the fringe, but Jon Heyman tweeted that the “word going around now” is that LA is planning to focus on Judge."

The Mets might want Tailion.

"The Mets have already been linked to several available starters early in the offseason, and The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reports that Jameson Taillon is one of the names the club has been in touch with during its ongoing pitching search."  

I might date Kim Kardashian.

"Since dumping Taylor Swift, the Yankee oracle has been linked to several starlets, but rumors began Saturday night after he was seen cleaning the Kardashian pool in a man-bikini."

Looking forward to Swift's next album, "Syracuse," a caustic, scathing account in song of her short relationship with El Duque and its bitter ending.

Actually, maybe I should date Pete Davidson.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

From what we all hear, that could be really painful.

Sorry, sorry!

Carl J. Weitz said...

El Duque, dude.....date Kim Basinger! She's still hot for her age (or any age) and she's batshit-crazy. And that equals JACKPOT in the sack.

1) Carl - Good choice. Good reasons.

2) In non Yankee news - NYP: "Kadarius Toney exits Chiefs’ win with familiar hamstring injury" While I don't wish for bad things in general, this news made me nod my head.
I really didn't like how glad he was to leave the Giants after giving us nothing but injuries and bad attitude. The Giants, a team with virtually no receivers got rid of a first round draft pick in the second year. That tells you something.

3) Luuuuuuke.

1B Louis Linwood Voit III was non-tendered by the Nationals. I hope he catches on somewhere. Just not with us. Also... there were TWO other Louis Linwood Voits?

4) Middle Relief

I'm ready to move on from Gleyber but he should bring back more than middle relief. What the Yankees need to do is get a hold of that Vac-U-Form that the Rays use to create their middle relivers and just mass produce a couple.

Cleaning the pool in the nude. Can't have tan lines disrupting your perfection.

After reading these comments, my brain instantly produced an image of a naked Al Davis, wearing a Raiders helmet, hosing out his empty pool, while Kim Basinger watches from the edge in a bikini…

Carl, that reminds me of the days when I had a huge crush on Sean Young. Guys used to seriously tell me, "She's crazy, you know"—as if they were seriously contemplating whether to marry her.

My reply was always, "She's out one night feeling batshit crazy. That's the only shot I got!"

And, speaking of batshit crazy, Jacoby Ellsbury if finally eligible for election to the Hall of Fame.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

JM,

That would be the *ONLY* album I would ever buy from that self-absorbed twit. Just to read the liner notes.

related questions:
Do liner notes still exist?
Do albums still exist?

Rufus T. Firefly said...

PS,

bat-shit crazy and good in bed reminds me of Fatal Instinct (sic).

EDB said...

Knowing the Yankees thinking, Torres and Hicks will be back, in addition to Donaldson. I want to vomit.

The Archangel said...

And Judge will be in SF

Judge will be very happy in San Fran.
