MLB 2015 Season

The Stove is warming up, thank god. Season is about to get interesting.

- Price to the Dodgers
- Hamels to the Rangers
- Cueto & Haren to the Blue Jays (cause its a very Toronto thing to do)
- Leake to the Royals
- Latos to the Cubs
- Chapman to the Yankees

Some trade predictions (they should all be wrong).

I sincerely hope the Jays don't make a move for Cueto. They don't have a team that can make a deep playoff run, even with him, and it would be a 4 month rental at best, no way he re-signs in Toronto.

But sadly you're right, it would be a very Toronto thing to do.

It's cool that Greinke will be there for the birth of his child, but man, talk about terrible timing. That shit-ass Mets lineup is about the closest thing to a guaranteed shutout outside of Philly.

So now the Mets will score 15 runs tonight.

EDIT: Never mind, I guess he plans to pitch this weekend.

Yeah it looks like it will be the Mets on Sunday and Phillies on August 4 to get him beyond the mark depending on how Mattingly plays it with leaving him in if shit begins to look shaky or just rolls the dice and runs it until it pops.

He really couldn't have asked for two better teams to face. Also the birth of his son allows him to bypass the Angels who have been smoking the ball.

Cowherd just got canned for saying:

"Cowherd said on his Thursday show "The Herd" that he didn't believe baseball was complex, saying one-third of the sport was from the Dominican Republic, which had "not been known, in my lifetime, as having, you know, world-class academic abilities."

Cowherd Out Immediately at ESPN After Rant - Breitbart

Yeah, he's very wrong. There are so many world renowned universities in the Dominican Republic. They are hailed for their education system.

What he should have mentioned was how the players out of the Dominican are often Miraculously 2 or 3 Years younger than their actual date of birth! That's impressive.

Cole Hamels certainly helped himself by throwing a no-hitter today.

Royals nearly acquired Johnny Cueto; deal fell through

The deal with the Royals was apparently close enough that Reds pitcher Michael Lorenzen had been warming up before the game, prepared to take Cueto?s place. Cueto was not happy, later telling reporters, ?I don?t want to use a bad word in this location, but it was really bad how I found out what happen.?

SUNDAY, 10:38am: The Royals remain ?hopeful? they can revive the Cueto deal with the Reds, sources tell Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports

And now it looks like a done deal.

Any idea how to get live stream of the induction today? I really wanted to watch Biggio go in. I had a meal with him and Bagwell twice in the middle of nowhere Cotulla TX twice.

Don't have the MLB channel here.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried it and it didn't have it/wasn't available.

My fault for visiting my parents this weekend.

And it's over. Greinke gives up a run. Still, 45 2/3 scoreless innings is real fucking impressive.

Royals give up John lamb, Brandon Finnegan, and cody reed for Cueto and cash considerations

They better win this year because their pitching is going to be shit for the next 5 years

Well mike trout still knows how to baseball

Rockies have put up 17 against the Reds and it's only the seventh inning. Yikes.
