It’s nothing a (league approved?) prescription to some Stanislozol won’t fix...

Agreed. I think he’ll take the best offer anywhere. Even from the Yankees...

Just let the players play in silence. Like the Marlins do every year...

I don’t think the season will complete to allow the reset that’s necessary to make re-signing Mookie possible in the first place...

The Sox never really pursued Lester in free agency. And they might not pursue Betts, either. And I can think of only one player in recent MLB history who would be in the exact exact same position as Betts - first time free re-signing with a team that dealt him before his option year. But it has happened...

So you think Mookie will be holding a grudge against Boston? Even if they make him the best offer?

He should be limited only to catching games pitched by Jamie Moyer...

I liked the idea of using Cactus League/Graperefruit Leage stadiium. They don't need the seating capacity anyway, and the season could extend a little later if it needed to so there was a much less chance of post-season games getting snowed out...

He’s 48 years old...

As you are clearly establishing criteria, you are my first choice to be a/the judge...

With the winner taking on the winner of the other semi-final between Cecil Fielder and John Kruk...

Technically you can still buy gear with Chief Wahoo on it...

If it was not for college football, I wouldn't know where most of the Native American tribes were from geographically. (I do know some schools appropriate tribe names from nearby geographic territories, but they keep it close.) But the name Redskins is just flat out wrong. I remember many years ago Chris Rock during a Weekend Update skit on SNL commenting on this, saying "Redskins is a racial slur! That's like having a team called the New York N-----s!" Only he said the actual N-word. Not sure what year it was, but Rock was on the show from 1990 to 1995, so he was pointing this out over a quarter of a century ago. And I don't get why the Redskins don't change. No one likes the name, and the only people who still do are the die hard fans. But with them it's a chance to sell all new gear!! Dump those Redskins hats and Redskins jackets and unis!! Put em in the back of the closet!! The new Washington Scandals (I am sticking with that name until it is officially not the right choice) jackets are out!! Buy yours today!! And don't forget the matching hat!! And these are die hard fans. Of course, they will buy! Seriously, Snyder is walking away from a goldmine just so he can continue to keep this racial slur of a moniker...

But then they are named after former Cleveland reliever and noted bigot John Rocker!!

I’m surprised no Jarren Duran. In a 60 game season where every win is magnified, a pinch running stolen base specialist might have an actual impact. Or are there future control/service time factors I’m not thinking about?

Non-Colon division..,

I had no idea the Giants’ uniforms had a B cup...

I think any MLB action would surprise me at this point. And it has me wondering, how was there ever a season in 1918?

Much like the Redskins, the Cleveland Guardians are considering a name change. What are some thoughts on a new name for an MLB franchise that represents the city of Cleveland? Their minor league hockey team used to go by the Lake Erie Monsters, which was an incredible name. But they changed it to Cleveland Monsters, which just made it lame. It also hurts that the Angels just wasted one of the best monikers ever - Trash Pandas - on a minor league franchise. Any thoughts on a new name for a Cleveland MLB franchise?

Diagnosed with colon cancer. Stage 3.

I do think losing Mancini - possibly forever - is a big deal to that lineup...

He’s an injury risk when counted on for 32-33 starts. But he might be able to make 12 for maybe 70IP...,

No love for Bobby Kielty and his 2007 game 4 pinch home run?

Ortiz ALCS grand slam off Joaquin Benoit (and Torii Hunter’s glove) in 2013...

So you want more pandemics?
