MLB should have given him a 50 game suspension...

I think this is the start of the downward spiral. It was fun while it lasted. And if Abrams and Wood hold true to form after the ASG it will be ugly. I know that this is what everyone was fearing but I’m just one of the first to say it.

Now, probably yes.

The Astros pitcher is quite capable of giving up lots of runs too.

Good bye, Mikolas. Could he pitch in long relief? Otherwise...

He takes the ball every 5 days, and we all know just how important that is, especially since we lost Patrick Corbin...

Good bye folks. I’m not a soccer fan but I need something to entertain me and it’s not watching this sh*t show. And I have run out of Law and Order re-runs.
