    This. In fact, I might even prefer this over Bud for Bundy straight up (although I'd love either). But realistically, I fully understand either are unlikely. I just don't want to underestimate Luhnow's wizardry.

    It does seem a little weird. We need more updates and more It's Happening gifs around here.

    These guys are more embracing of being assets than Murray's Rockets. Murray wishes he had Jeff's player relationships!

    Last tweet said he's fully open to joining a mlb contender. I have a feeling after several seasons on a losing club he's ready for some competition.

    Yeah playing a game for a living, making millions of dollars, and about to be traded off a losing team to a contender.

    I feel really bad for him as well

    Such hissy fits from front offices (especially the Braves) that they can't just fleece us.

    Glad we are finally in capable hands again.
