http://deadspin.com/report-the-phillies-ratted-out-two-draft-picks-to-the-1526769641stay classy philly. Also nice of the NCAA to bar kids (outside of Ohio- maybe) from having someone competent to negotiate on their behalf
Bob Nightengale @BNightengale 20sThe #Braves keep spending, and lock up shortstop Andrelton Simmons to a seven-year contract.
“As of today, the Phillies are out,” one agent who advises numerous high-profile prospects said Thursday. “If the Phillies call for an in-home visit, the Phillies are not getting into any more of our households. We’re going to shut down all communication with the Phillies—no questionnaires returned, no communication with the Phillies’ scouts about when players are going to pitch and no communication about signability information. You can’t have this adversarial relationship between teams and players, and then have them be able to hold that over the players: ‘You’d better take this deal or I’m going to turn you in.’”
The Baltimore Orioles have agreed to a one-year, $8 million contract with free agent slugger Nelson Cruz, ESPN and multiple media outlets are reporting.
Hell, we should have signed him for that. The Lerners have that much under one seat cushion in their tertiary mansion.Who wants to bet he fires his agent?
Nelson Cruz of the Rangers recently came off a suspension for Peds. I dont think a cheater should be allowed on a Postseason roster.
Guess Cheaters prosper in baseball!
Fantastic deal by the O's.
I feel like Reimold had gone through 6-7 neck surgeries by this point. How does he keep coming back?
Four years, $48 million from Baltimore for Ubaldo. Risky, but if he plays like he did last year, it is a fair contract.
AJ Burnett also struggles in the AL. I was glad to see those two signings.
TJ for Luke Hochevar, Royals season is already over.easy prediction: James Shields is traded this season.
