And the people who know him know that he has worked for the Red Sox and The Mets and consulted with the Rangers and the Pirates. So, shouldn't he have identified the team he was speaking about when he said "we"? Later

Nice of him to let us know that. Thanks. Later

It is unprofessional when a sportswriter uses "we". It is really fucking unprofessional when he writes something like that and doesn't specify which team "we" refers to. Is he that pompous that we should know the team because he is reporting about it? (one of my pet peeves) Later

=Fman99 post_id=180041 time=1733173164 user_id=86] Cubs getting Matthew Boyd (as per sources) for 2 years and $29 million. And unlike Frankie, he was good at baseball last year. So what the hell

The Mets re-signed Alex Ramirez to a minor league contract. Maybe non-tendering him got his attention, and he will work harder to harness his five tool talent. Later

Nice theory.(and analogy) Mine is he said he wants to build an organization from the ground up, and this is what he found on the ground. Later

I'm underwhelmed, bordering on whelmed. Later

And I'll guess the Baseball Annies aren't as hot, either. Later

MLBPA and MLB announced that In the last two testing periods, there have been three players who were on 40 man rosters who have failed substance tests. https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mlbpa-drug-testing-results-2024?partnerId=it-20241130-11875035-mlb-1-A&utm_id=it-20241130-11875035-mlb-1-A&lctg=32496098https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mlbpa-drug-testing-results-2024?partnerId=it-20241130-11875035-mlb-1-A&utm_id=it-20241130-11875035-mlb-1-A&lctg=32496098 Do you think that is an accurate number or are the players are getting better at masking the substances?

Unlike Chipper, he hit the Mets for lots of homers(didn't he have the record for an opponent at Shea?), but you really couldn't dislike him. Later

=stevejrogers post_id=179847 time=1732747669 user_id=57] My first thought was this was about then rookie Miguel Cabrera's output against us over two decades ago!

I think he was. I believe the view in which he is held stems from one play. I forget all the details, but is looked like he dogged it chasing a fly ball that cost them a game. It got a lot of press, and was a hot topic on WFAN, with Massive Mike and the Cretinous Canine leading the charge. Mike hated it that Bonilla had signed a high dollar contract right after the two of them had been embroiled in a contract dispute with their station. They basically rode him out of town. It was unjust. In all the games I saw Bonilla, he busted it on every play. And hustling is all you can ask from a player. Later

CF, "worked up" seems to be an understatement. As Popeye used to say, "Unlax". The local papers are suffering from a severe case of premature exultation. Don't get upset. We'll know when we know. But if you have any other theories, pass them on. Later

It's a beginning. Later

Fixed. It isn't novel. But they seem to leverage it very well when balancing their budget to have several mega-stars on the roster at the same time. Later

=metirish post_id=179805 time=1732713192 user_id=72] And $62 million deferred according to some and a $52 million signing bonus , so what's the actual annual hit ?
-
And if it is, what is the remedy? Are the contracts voided? Are the teams fined or do they lose a draft pick? To whom do they appeal? The devil is in the details. Later

ECHHHHH! Later

According to Randy Miller of NJ.com, the free agent superstar has received contract offers from five teams, including the Yankees and Mets, has one of the highest-profile free agencies in the history of the sport could be entering the home stretch. Per Miller, the Blue Jays, Red Sox, and Dodgers are the other teams to have submitted offers to Soto. MLB Network's Jon Morosi corroborated the report shortly after. Later
