2018 MLB catch all thread
Gary Sanchez's lack of effort yesterday was pretty disgusting. First on a WP, jogging to the ball let a run score. Then jogged to first and was thrown out to end the game. The tying run would have scored if he gave some effort.

Fulmer's New Bullpen Role
Let him try this, maybe if it works out and he gains some confidence and command, he can go back to starting one day. There are a lot of failed starters that become lock down relievers, and if he becomes effective, he isn't a wasted pick the way the game is played now.

When did Bryce Harper become a more nimble version of Adam Dunn?

That was Rand Paul's original thought, but they thought, hey why not throw this out there?

Those that don’t kiss Trumps ring may get their security clearance revoked. Of course McCabe and Comey don’t have security clearance anymore, but why would the WH know that? and Hayden doesn’t get briefings so it doesn’t matter to him. Could you imagine if Obama did this or Hillary won and did it? Intelligence community politicizing? Trump had no problem with Flynn leading a lock her up chant. So once again, Trump is doing what he is complaining about. Politicizing the intelligence community. It never fails. Whatever he is complaining about he is guilty of doing. Also, how come everyone forgot the video Putin showed of indefensible nuclear warheads headed to Florida? Yes, he’s our friend. when will republicans wake the fuck up?

July 31, James Shields starts or...?
Good call. No way he gets claimed making $20 million a year. So waivers won’t be an issue.

I agree with the comparison. The problem is assuming health is an assumption that with these teams and these rosters seems to be a pretty big stretch.

Gotta hand it to Trump. He knows how to change the subject. No one is talking about the kids still separated from their parents. Now he’s back whining about NFL players kneeling. It is being thought Trumps team actually leaked the Cohen tape story to get off the Putin Russia debacle . What a shit show this presidency is.

Its actually pretty standard in the NBA. Guys who get waived on a guarantee and sign somewhere else get their full guarantee from the team that waived them plus whatever they sign for.

McDougal's attorney Peter Stris on Friday tweeted: ".@karenmcdougal98→ When @realDonaldTrump said we were lying, do you think he meant we WEREN'T?

What I don't understand is he paid off Stormy and his buddy at the Enquirer shut this woman up with cash, yet many others were out there he just called liars. If these 2 were lying, why were they paid off? Did the women who were not just refuse the money? It's pretty strange. I'm thinking Cohen is probably speaking with former Trump publicist John Barron on the phone. He and Trump sound exactly alike.

Clinton lied under oath, I guess that's the difference. Trump lies all the time and deflects by calling everyone else a liar. His base, and those who value an R after a name more than anything else buy it.

Considering one and done will most likely be done by then, the top picks are in 8th grade or freshman in HS right now. It might be the greatest draft ever, it might be Eddy Curry bad.

Yankees looking for pitching
Trading Abreu now makes no sense. Teams will be looking for a discount. He's been pretty bad, but it's pretty rare a guy falls off a cliff like that in the middle of the season and is suddenly done, without a significant injury. He was raking previously. If I were a GM of another team, if the White Sox wanted to sell him at a discount, I would buy immediately. I think he is due for a bounce back, and if he's in a better line up, those chances do nothing but improve.

What do you know, Trump isn't going to allow Putin to question the American citizens in exchange for his assistance getting to the bottom of the alleged Russian hacking issue. He must have misspoke when he said just a couple of days ago he thought it was a very interesting proposal.

Tilson optioned to AAA
Charlie wasn't terrible, but he isn't what the team needs when they win. Maybe off the bench to pinch run and play some defense. if not, so what? So sending him to Charlotte should be a who cares event.

Trump didn't really mean to say "no" this morning when asked if Russia was still targeting US elections. Fake news really needs to stop reporting what he says. Does Sarah Sanders have any pride? If she just had a little she wouldn't spout the ridiculous lie after lie trying to cover for one of the biggest liars we have ever seen.

Big fines will probably be what happens. His charity was a sham, just like the rest of what he does.
