MLB - NEWS & NOTES

He has made some bad contract moves and mostly chose not to make moves when he should have, maybe. Bottom line is, in my opinion, the Yankees got him fired.

 

sounds a lot like Matt Klentak of the Phillies. I wish he was fired. haha.

 

I don’t really get the Dombo move. You want to look at the luxury tax issues?

Pablo Sandoval
Rusney Castillo
Dustin Pedroia

That’s $46mm in dead CBT value on this year’s books from bad contracts signed by Ben Cherington. They’d be way under the threshhold otherwise. I don’t even mind the bullpen non-moves (though if they were gonna end up over the limit anyway might as well have held onto Kimbrel, but he sucked this year, too, so maybe he wasn’t wrong about that one). If you want to hang him about building this year’s roster, it would be the lack of organizational rotation depth...when Sale had a down year, Porcello sucked whale nuts, Eovaldi got hurt again, and Price kept spraining his vag, they didn’t have anyone else to fill the void, which strained the bullpen even more.

I think he did more than enough (Sale trade, Martinez signing, Bogaerts extension, etc.) to earn the chance to see what he could do next year with a lot of bad deals off the books. I don’t know who they think they’re going to get that’s an upgrade.

Maybe he was tapping Linda Pizzuti or something, IDK.

 

and why now? why not wait till the end of the season? to do on Sox employee day ? ouch.

 

This is the original site of Babe Ruths first ever pro home run at Hanlans Point.

 

MIKE TROUT OUT FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON!

I still think he wins the MVP in a walk !

 

Could we have a Tampa Bay, Milwaukee Series... that would be different. Long way to go, tho. I just want anybody in there from the AL other than the NY Yankees.

 

Cavan Biggio hits for the cycle, the Biggios become the second father/son duo to hit for the cycle.

 

besides Guerrero Jr, Toronto has a couple of young players, who are sons of former players. Bo Bichette is doing well too and Biggio.

 

You jinxed Vladdy, thanks.

 

i did not. and the jays aren't playoff bound, so the season is almost over.

 

He hasn't hit a hr all sept.

 

The whole city is talking about you, public enemy #1, just like Bartman in chicago.

 

Lol

 

I really thought he would end the season on a real high note. I had him hitting 5 hrs this month, can't believe it. I went off on a random stranger last week wearing a vladdy jersey, the guy just put his arms in the air lol.

 

that hurts ! i did nothing to him! perhaps he's tired from playing all season ? he's only 20 ?

 

Come on, tired? That one isn't used until you're 35.

 

it's a long ass grind man. 162 games + travel. and he came from the minors too, so he played down there and rode buses and crap. players get burnt out.

 

We can't put a face to the curse, we're just going with a picture of a catfish that comes from a suburb outside of Philly lol.

 

Well that hasn't slowed down Bichette or Biggio.
