Oso planning to go pro
Dodgers I'll give you. Cardinals might be a tough sell for anyone after the Dexter Fowler experience and Bud Norris snitching on/hazing teammates.
Except he said "ends this season" in that a waiver trade would have to occur. I don't see it.
Oops sorry I missed that part. I don't think that happens either.
I think the Nats face reality at some point. I like their team and would love to see them in the playoffs, but they are 6 out if the wild card with what 5 teams above them? They are 8 out of the division. Right now the Dodgers would be the first real contender with waiver priority, though that obviously changes daily. It would be more surprising of they traded him than of they don't, but I think they have to get something for him.
It's certainly possible. I would be surprised, though.
Cubs bats are strong early.
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
Yet another great case for robot umpires. It wasn't quite right down the middle so I guess it isn't a strike?And don't look now Astros. The A's are one game back.
Also bad.
Acuna hit on first pitch of game. Possibly hurt. Came out half inning after getting hit.
We've covered here how much baseball's unwritten rules are BS, but it all rarely rises to a level that actually makes me mad. Seeing this one actually pissed me off. Acuna is 20 years old and the Braves are in the middle of a playoff race, and you peg him with the first pitch because he's been playing well? Maybe they can't do it out of the blue with Urena, but MLB has to fine a pitcher 1/2 of his season salary for this crap.
What unwritten rule did actually break? It seems like there’s more and more of them now.
