1) when you were listing young WS starters, any thoughts on Ky Bush? He was 2nd round pick in Perry Minasian’s “Angels 2021 Draft: Whoops, All Pitchers” experiment. Bush was part of the trade package for Giolito. Do you think he going to see action with the WS in 2025?
2) with two players already on the roster named Montgomery, why doesn’t Getz go full Veeck and trade for Jordan Montgomery? He can get Dbacks to toss in a couple of minor leaguers in exchange for taking on the final year of Monty’s deal, and can have fun promoting games with 3 unrelated guys named Montgomery on the field at the same time? Might as well have a little fun with a rebuild. Plus: If Monty regains form, flip him at trade deadline for a few more MiLB bodies.
2) Getting Montgomery Burns to announce that day would be a bit too on the nose.
1) Bush hasn't stayed healthy enough to really figure out what he is. He looked really good for the first half but had the triceps issue at the end. No one I spoke with mentioned him, which might be telling.

There is no OFF switch on Genius.
