says he's OK

I'll believe it after he gets through his first start. He's a slinger and I hope it doesn't mess up his legs and motion.

The O’s are reportedly considering batting Chris Davis in the leadoff spot.

That was a very nice story, kudos to the Sox for doing that for him.

AJ Puk shut down with an 'elbow ligament issue', heading for a 2nd opinion.

They just announced he will have TJ surgery. That sucks.

vlad jr. with a monster home run, in a scoreless (albeit spring training) game, to win the game...and...in Montreal !!

quite the moment, for many reasons...

Last night's Angels-Dodgers game at Dodger Stadium ended early due to an unfortunate "plumbing issue". https://twitter.com/jphoornstra/status/978843961572773888?s=20 (read the whole thread too)

More coverage: https://streamable.com/mvy80

(insert snarky comment about Dodger fans, Chase Utley, or the City of LA here)

dcpatti · « **Reply #211:** March 28, 2018, 02:22:17 PM »

Nathan Eovaldi will likely need surgery to remove bone fragments from his elbow. This takes the Rays’ four-man rotation experiment down to a 3-man rotation, meaning they will probably decide to tank now.

And why has *no one* commented on the post (^^ look up ^^ ) about turds floating around in Dodger Stadium yet?!

-Don't turds always float around Dodger Stadium? They just are on the field instead of the concourses this time...

-Wait! Why are Puig and Utley on a boat in Dodger Stadium?

-Anybody who has been to that stadium can see how crappy it is..

dcpatti · « **Reply #213:** March 28, 2018, 07:00:11 PM »

Salvy Perez out for ~6 weeks with a grade 2 MCL tear he suffered while he was carrying his luggage.

Why TF is Salvy Perez schlepping his own luggage?!?!

.... Do the Royals have anyone we want? Cause that 6 week recovery on an MCL tear seems rather optimistic for a catcher, especially one of Perez’ age and size, and this kills their season.

We sure could use a catcher. Oh, wait

Greg Holland to Cardinals. 1 year $14 million.

Edit: should have taken the qualifying offer.

...And the first pitch of the 2018 regular season is a Urena (Marlins) fastball to Ian Happ (Cubs) for a tater.

Seems fitting.

Interesting start to the season...Molina crushed a Thor pitch for a 2 run dong, and Schwarber looked like Jayson Werth on a fly ball and then a liner to left...

...and we'll find ourselves in last place on opening day....

Wouldn't the loser of Atlanta/Philly be behind us? And possibly the Marlins and the Mets.

Lest we be too smug, the Anacostia has had an issue with "brown trout" for quite a few decades. However, help is on the way.
