MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)

No off days doesn't help. No way to try to ride Yu and Hendricks with no off days.

 

Deep pitching staffs are going to win the day...at least you'd think.

My thoughts after seeing that 4 NL Central teams made the playoffs.



Thank you, Pirates - for being such a crappy team that every other team in the division beat you so often they made the playoffs. Yeah, the Tigers and Royals helped but Pirates carried the day

[Auz]

He is still jacked AF

Betts is the first player in World Series history with a home run, two runs scored and two stolen bases in the same game. Just wait for that 12th year of his contract when Betts will likely be playing for some other team with the Dodgers still paying his salary. All the Dodgers will have to show for that $365 MM contract will be division titles, NL Championships and World Series titles. Suckers



BTW, Kudos to the Red Sox for realizing that Betts talents just didnt have a place in their organization

Maybe he can become a Fedex driver.

[Butcher]

I hope I never have to see him pick up a bat again. Fuck that piece of shit.

[1060Ivy]

And why wouldn’t I be surprised to see him resurrect his career as a Cardinal or White Sox

[funkster]

He is definitely a WS type signing.

Pretty cool. Long overdue.

Fuck the Marlins and all of that, but this is really fucking cool.

If you needed more proof that MLB owners are full of shit....

So those "biblical" losses reported by Tom may be a touch exaggerated...

[funkster]

Never believed that bullshit.
