QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 21, 2017 -> 08:58 AM) https://twitter.com/jposnanski/status/932973909665894400 Morgan is such an egotistical prick The timing of this seems about five years too late. I’m kind of in the middle on this- I forgive the players that started their careers from the mid 80s to late 90s for using stuff that wasn’t tested for and ignored by owners, media, and fans. Post Mitchell Report and urine/blood testing, there should be zero tolerance. Any tangible proof of intent to cheat, you should be out of baseball, no different than the rules against betting. And if there isn’t tangible proof of intent, one year suspended, voiding contract; second offense- gone.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Nov 20, 2017 -> 05:45 PM) I'd go Trevor Hoffman Billy Wagner Chipper Jones Andruw Jones Vladimir Guerrero Barry Bonds Larry Walker Fred McGriff Edgar Martinez Jeff Kent Wow, quite a difference. Six guys I think come up short. Honestly, I think one day they’ll go “Big Hall”, which is fine by me.

I’ve seen them do stuff after the initial announcement and end up adding another player. Things can still happen before 7. Also could have a couple non tenders in a couple weeks.

I’d only vote for 9. Vladimir Guerrero Roger Clemens Barry Bonds Mike Mussina Curt Schilling Manny Ramirez Fred McGriff Chipper Jones Jim Thome Hoffman is getting in this time too.

First years- Chipper, Thome, Rolen, Andruw Jones, Johan Santana, Damon, Vizquel

Cool, I look forward to his 32-34 starts and 230-250 innings a season for the next 15 years.

Thought I never heard of him before today, but I remember this...wow. (Name still misspelled in the title)

Vieira 36 on the 40-man. Going to be interesting to see what happens by Monday afternoon.

Beltran has a few things going for him- switch hitter, era he played (his average 162 games from age 22 to 36 was really good), and postseason success. I’m not saying he’s a no-brainer, but he’s over the line for me.

Carlos Beltran has retired. Yeah, I think he gets in.

8/22/80 Harry Caray interview with 35-year-old manager, Tony LaRussa. Britt Burns 8.2 shutout innings, Farmer with a one out save. Danny Ainge playing for the Blue Jays. 1990 brawl with the Rangers posted by Greg Hibbard's kid.

Not in the lineup Thursday or Friday.

15 pitchers threw 200+ innings this year. 30 starts/180 innings would be great.

Terrible news. Man.

My predictions: ROY- Judge, Bellinger (duh) Mgr- Hinch, Lovullo Cy- Kluber, Scherzer MVP- Altuve, Goldschmidt

Top 3’s alphabetically: Rookie of the Year (Mon, 11/13): AL- Andrew Benintendi, Aaron Judge, Trey Mancini NL- Josh Bell, Cody Bellinger, Paul DeJong Manager of the Year (Tue, 11/14): AL- Terry Francona, AJ Hinch, Paul Molitor NL- Bud Black, Torey Lovullo, Dave Roberts Cy Young (Wed, 11/15): AL- Corey Kluber, Chris Sale, Luis Severino NL- Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg Most Valuable Player (Thu, 11/16): AL- Jose Altuve, Aaron Judge, Jose Ramirez NL- Paul Goldschmidt, Giancarlo Stanton, Joey Votto

Back in LF tonight. RBI single in first AB.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Nov 6, 2017 -> 12:52 PM) Remember when Gordon Beckham was "Jeter but better"? I think it was more like Ryne Sandberg.

Back in the lineup today as the DH, single in first at bat. 10th inning 2-rbi triple, scores on error. Good sign his leg is ok hopefully.

QUOTE (GenericUserName @ Nov 3, 2017 -> 06:06 PM) Do we have to put him on the 40 since we claimed him off waivers? Yes, unless they try to move him through waivers too, and risk losing him also.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Nov 3, 2017 -> 01:53 AM) I'm pretty certain that was Wednesday's game, and and he was removed after that play. He did not play Thursday according to mlbfarm.com His team didn’t play Thursday, and he’s not in the lineup tonight.

Never know, could be Abreu trade coming, Gillaspie in Chicago, and this guy in Charlotte. Or not.

Hey SI, how about a Sox champions in 2020 cover?
