Cole thought he could skate by Tanaka-style and avoid surgery in perpetuity.
G can shut it down too.
I just hope everyone can finally dead the "we need to win now. Judge and Cole's clocks are ticking" crap. It's over. Now they can do the right thing and pivot and actually focus on player development. The one part that sucks is that Chase Hampton ALSO needed TJS and at this rate woulda got a look. Instead there's gonna be a lot of searching for the next Aaron Small/Shawn Chacon to fill the voids if/when anyone else gets hurt.
This year is about
Volpe, Wells and Schmidt taking the next step and the Martian taking the first step and maybe even Jones.
There's a real possibility that Goldy, Williams, and maybe even Bellinger are just rentals til the deadline.
