  1. Just seen J.D.'s opt out clauses. That really makes you think he's committed to playing here, doesn't it?
  2. f***ing strikes out looking.
  3. J.D. - now would be a good time. Just sayin'
  4. Can we, I don't know, score some runs, please?
  5. Time to earn that paycheck, J.D.
  6. Other Sports section gets low traffic in general.
  7. 1 game and I'm already sick of the Yankees. f*** Stanton and f*** that stupid helmet he wears.
  8. We gave up four players for....a whole bag of nothing.
  9. So just checking if 0-1 is too early to freak out that they're going to crash and burn and miss the playoffs? Also: Thanks, Ben.
  10. Also, Rays are going to be lousy this year and here we are gifting them a win on day one.
  11. I realize Sale isn't going 35-0 but we HAVE to win his starts when he pitches well. See, it sounds silly, but that's kinda the point of having an ace pitcher.
  12. I don't bring Kimbrel in until the 9th, period. His arm will fall off otherwise.
  13. Good game, good game. Pause. What the f***??
  14. Wow, hadn't heard about this. Sounds like a miraculous recovery. http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/21887476/houston-astros-first-base-coach-rich-dauer-makes-rapid-recovery-surgery-acute-subdural-hematoma
  15. I finally figured out what DD stands for. Doesn't deliver.
  16. Cole is a douche with a chip on his shoulder after crying in public about his salary being too low. He's also not 100% reliable on the field.
  17. Hmmm, meanwhile, I wonder what great journalism the worldwide leader in sports is offering today. http://www.espn.com/blog/chicago/cubs/post/_/id/46311/why-cubs-should-make-addison-russell-for-manny-machado-blockbuster-deal ********.
  18. Wrong. The Marlins HAD to sell for pennies on the dollar because they're deep in debt and absolutely cannot afford Stanton's contract when the dollars start really getting up there. They needed a trade partner who would eat pretty much the whole contract. Logic dictates you don't get blue chips in return for hefty salary dumps, and this was the salary dump of all time. And you don't know what the Dodgers did or didn't offer, and AFAIK Stanton didn't say whether he would block the Dodgers or not, did he? Marlins were playing with no cards here, Stanton had them over a barrel and their own financial ineptitude had them over a barrel as well.
  19. Let's just give up and let the Yankees handpick whoever they want off all other team rosters for nothing.
  20. It's $30 million, isn't it? Last I heard anyway.
  21. I hope no one's blaming Dealin' Dave for being 0-2 so far, because neither player wanted to play for Boston. That said, he IS 0-2....
  22. I'm glad we didn't get Stanton, not at the price the Yankees paid in dollars. He's in his prime now, but if he doesn't opt out he's sure to decline, and that contract is backloaded.
  23. Actually I'd only do that if douchebag Loria was still in charge.
