MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)

They are going to have to seriously consider trading Trout in the next year or two. They don't have much to show for a high payroll already. Pujols is going to keep getting older and Trout more expensive. Trout won't be able to do it alone. They may need to swap him in order to try and improve at 3 or 4 positions.

I just hope he doesn't end up with the Cardinals.

I forget sometimes that they signed CJ Wilson too.  Feel like he hasn't done shit.

Tanner Roark can eat a dick. That is all.

[funkster]

Yes.  How them grapes taste?

The Nats better get used to it. The Cubs won't be the last team to walk Harper all the time.

Cowards!

Still a worthless POS, Mike North hates the one good thing about Sunday Night Baseball. I love Mendoza. I'm sure this is somehow related to how Schilling was treated by ESPN.

Mike North: Jessica Mendoza is worst announcer in baseball

BBTF's Baseball Primer Newsblog / 7min ago

Mike North: I've got to tell you something folks. You know, I've been called every name in the book doing this job since the early 90s. Good names, bad names, and everything in between. I've been called everything from a pillar in the community to a guy whos the best who did it in Chicagos history to a racist and a sexist. I'm going to just tell you right now what everybody else doesnt want to say, except maybe the regular fan who you see on social media: Jessica Mendoza is the worst baseball announcer who has ever announced the game of baseball. Now, if you want to call me a sexist, go ahead. But I'm an observer, and I've been observing and listening to baseball announcers for 20, 30, 40, 50 years. And I'll tell you right now I don't care if you're Cassidy Hubbarth, I love Cassidy, Christine Brennan, Michelle Beadle, these are all people I respect, Ann Meyers, Cheryl Miller. You want me to go on? Pam Oliver. Because apparently I have to tell everybody nowadays - because of the PC crowd - the females I like before I can criticize one. If Jessica Mendoza continues on I believe someday they're going to have to replace her, unless the ratings are okay, but I don't care. What I do know is I shut the sound down to watch that game; she's just not a good announcer. If she was a man, she'd be (fired like) Tony Kornheiser or Dennis Miller. OK? And that's the God honest truth about it. Period. End of Story. I listened for an inning last night, and I had to shut it off
