2024 Guardians Regular Season Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I have other sad news that no one reported...

Zak Kent, who is a guy we picked up for depth purposes... Went to the minor league IL with an elbow strain... Enright is also out... So I wonder if we will see some moves comes next Monday...
 
I don’t think they are going to make a change to the 13 position players unless someone gets hurt, but hopefully Rodriguez and Manzardo keep forcing the issue!

Seems like the two most likely players to be removed from the roster would be Laureano or Florial, (I think Hedges is here for the long haul even if @CDAV45 isn’t happy about it ;)) but since neither have options, I’m guessing the FO is going to wait as long as possible to make a change.
Vogt loves the flexibility with his dh. So I doubt we see Monzardo anytime soon.
 
Folks got some time off for refusing to accept Moderator guidance to cease their argument.

This is about the fourth time I've had to get involved in this Forum in three days.

When told to stop, just stop.


No one is above the rules.*

Making up the rules as we go and micromanaging what people can discuss is a choice, not something you “had to do.”

Swing that ban around if it makes you feel control.
 
The position were currently in with regard to starting pitching depth as an organization was why I was far more gunshy than most about sending Cal elsewhere... that never made a lick of sense IMO
 
If we're trading bats for arms Rocchio might still fetch a decent arm with less control.

With Arias Rocchio and Freeman losing prospect status along with Manzardo and DeLauter later this summer the system is starting to look barren.
Ideal time for us to have won the MLB Lottery methinks!

I have never seen someone so incapable of behaving like an adult, and whose head is so far up his own ass that he can't even discern friend from foe, and who is far less clever than he thinks.

It takes a true midwit narcissist to think one can continually break the rules and be shocked when correction follows, and that it is merely a function of malice or a conspiracy. For example, you were given about half a dozen chances in the Politics Forum, still broke every rule, and had each infraction adjudicated and explained to you in detail by a literal committee of judges of equal number from the Left and Right, yet somehow, that ego-maniac brain of yours thinks you did nothing wrong and that you were martyred on the alter of social justice by spineless moderate pushovers who couldn't handle your truth while also trying to appease a vast Right-Wing Conspiracy.

If it wasn't for me advocating for you would have been perma-banned back in 2017. I and all the other mods have looked away a number of times when we could have come down hard. We thought we were being reasonable. Alas, all for naught.

And to be clear, you've been on the cusp of a perma-ban for years because you simply won't cease behaving like an asshole. All warnings used up if we applied the letter of the rules. Two strikes+ now since at least 2019. You've been living off the fat of leniency and wishful thinking on our (mostly mine) part. I really should have done this a loooooooooong time ago.


So let's be clear: No one is above the rules.

When I think about all the people you've bullied into silence over the years, or simply exasperated to the point they decided they'd rather not share their opinions because of you, all the complaints, as well as the amount of my and all the other Mods' time you have wasted, I think to myself:

Why did I ever bother? Were you worth it?


**No.**

So, your wish is fulfilled and you are henceforth separated from RCF forever.

We wish you success in your future endeavors.



Adieu.









*Who thought the above was going to be AZ_'s response when I mentioned the asterisk above in the warning post? If you did, congratulations!
 
I was going to ask why he was being so bitchy in that response but decided not to. What a douche.
I would like to ask that anyone who has been bullied by AZ_, or otherwise have felt discourse has been chilled, in any Forum, because they didn't want to be badgered, hectored or attacked by him, or simply didn't want to deal with his bullshit, to Like this post.


And please accept my apologies, on behalf of RCF, for allowing him to do that to you, and everyone else, for well past too damn long.
