July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (lord chas @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) No reporting by Scott Merkin. Just another Jerry lackey/shill Merkin and Hayes are just an extension of the PR dept. I'm at peace with that.
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) so are they wearing the jerseys? or did they have to switch? lol. 83s
July 24, 20169 yr From rosenthal Sources say: Sale cut up throwbacks during batting practice. Upset that, in his view, PR and jersey sales were more important than winning. Interesting stance

July 24, 20169 yr Thing is, I don't blame Sale for being pissed if the jersey was uncomfortable and he was on the mound. However, sure doesn't seem like he handled his complaint well
July 24, 20169 yr Now we're in a quandary. Do we keep this guy? This isn't somebody I'd want on my team. But if you trade him, do you get the same package you would if this didn't happen?
July 24, 20169 yr I'm remembering that Sale called Drake LaRoche a clubhouse leader and it all makes sense.

But if you trade him, do you get the same package you would if this didn't happen? On the other hand, this is definitely someone I want on my team. So there's that.
July 24, 20169 yr Author They have to hold out for the package that they are comfortable with. You still keep him if you have to. But if the right package comes along definitely a little more eager to trade him.

July 24, 20169 yr Dave hasn't said anything since claiming that the uniform story didn't happen. However it has been confirmed by raBBit, Chuck Garfien, Ken Rosenthal, etc.
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 05:55 PM) Honestly, I think Sale would have looked badass in that uni. +1

July 24, 20169 yr Chuck GarfienVerified account @ChuckGarfien I know Chris Sale likes wearing the 1983 throwbacks. He clearly had issues with the '76 ones. And yes, there's more to it than that.
July 24, 20169 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 08:41 PM) This is the funniest baseball story of the year, bar none. WRONG. You forgot the Drake

However, that might be a little too much to ask.

Someone probably made a comment like "how would you feel if those ugly things were the last uniform that you ever wore here?" And then s*** probably hit the fan
July 24, 20169 yr Author David O'Brien @DOBrienAJC 1h1 hour ago #Braves have been interested in Chris Sale for several years, and yes, there have been at least preliminary discussions. https://twitter.com/DOBrienAJC

The investigation may turn up if anyone bought a case of 76 jerseys and they will be charged with insider buying.
