I hope they have the gumption to release this pos even though they owe him two years of 17m.

Edwin Diaz with another meltdown. Dipoto won a trade

Carlos Carrasco from the indians diagnosed with leukemia.

That sucks.

Oh FFS.

Major League Baseball announced Friday that it'll honor the New York Yankees left-hander - who's retiring at season's end - as part of Tuesday's All-Star festivities at Cleveland's Progressive Field, according to MLB.com's Mark Feisand.

The league will recognize Sabathia "for his contributions to the game and his longtime service to the community," according to the league statement

Just saw that Howie is having his best ever MLB season hitting wise so far, with a .934 OPS and a .322 BA in 227 PAs.

He's aging like a fine wine.

Josh Bell has 60 xbh in 86 games.

It appears that the Mets are having themselves a nice little season...

 

New York Mets general manager Brodie Van Wagenen threw a chair during a meeting with the team's coaching staff following Friday's loss at Citi Field, sources told Mike Puma of the New York Post.

Van Wagenen berated manager Mickey Callaway and his coaching staff for wasting ace Jacob deGrom's solid start against the Philadelphia Phillies, according to Puma. He then picked up a chair during the meeting, threw it across the room, and told Callaway to go to his "f---king press conference

The Mets went to the World Series in 2015, made the playoffs again in 2016, and are this in 2019

I like the chair throwing method. Scioscia had many opportunities but just chose to turn the page.

Expos Day was pretty cool.

I like to live on the edge.

Totally forgot Callaway  was part of the ‘02 Angels

Van Wagenen is clearly not the Brodiesattva.

Gene Mauch was pretty good in his day at overturning postgame buffet tables. 

I miss those days.

Love the genuine “woah” reaction in the background

Arrieta has a bone spur in his right elbow, according to a source, and it likely will require surgery to remove it -- surgery that those involved had hoped could wait until the end of the season. That delay is no longer certain. It is unclear how much the bone spur has affected Arrieta, who has a 6.63 ERA in his past seven starts

He had the memorable Sunday night ESPN game in August that year, outpitching 20 game winner Derek Lowe in Fenway.

Holy F*ck, Fernando Tatis Jr is good: .327/.393/.620, 14 HR, 13 SB, 3.0 fWAR in his first 55 major league games. 20 years old.

The Padres got him from the White Sox for James Shields. I think the Padres did good.

Hopefully he won't follow his dad's career path.
