1. It seems every time I hear this they end up with the Dodgers 

2. I N C H E S

3. Man with job says thing everyone else says.

4. Better be the right sauces!

5. I’ll believe it when I see it.

6. I think you could readily say the top 4 teams are all in “strong position” even if the top team is still the strong favorite.

7. Is this dude at all reliable?

8. Who tf is this guy

9. I believe!!!! But even if he signs in friartown it’s still his first year – would temper expectations for next year

13. I choose to believe this because it is what I want.

14. Please don’t give me blue balls

15. Musgrove must’ve wished for Sasaki for his birthday

16. I figure if I upvote this post it’ll come true, because that’s how baseball works, right?

17. 

18. I also believe this because I want it to be true

19. Oh we on the uphill portion of the hope coaster huh?

20. Please let it be true

21. No, don’t give me hope.

22. I don’t wanna see no Sasaki tweets/posts. We either sign him or not. But I’m not letting y’all hype me up so I have another mental breakdown once he signs elsewhere (like Ohtani before he chose the Angels Angels, Scherzer, Senga or Judge / Turner) lol. If we get him though, I’d go craaaazzzy

23. don’t do this to me

24. My hopes are so high, yet the fear of them crumbling is terrifying.

25. I’ve always felt pretty good about our chances ever since Preller name dropped him during Peter’s celebration of life. Now that the Dodgers signed Snell I like our chances even more.

27. Which means…nothing
