No real Spring training. A delayed start. Guys got ready, sat and rushed back. It's not a great thing to do to pitcher's arms. Clearly. 

Which has nothing at all to do with the fans.

You don support this but for some reason are interested enough to post on a message board and/or are watching. You must be ashamed of yourself.

I'm not watching. I won't watch any games. I'm here for the "told ya so's."

Non-tender likely?

It seemed like a possibility even if his arm didn't fall off

You sure do love to get ahead of yourself don't you? ?

Can we get Mazara now?

I said this was a risk with 3 weeks to ramp up, you disagreed. there have been 5 times as many pitchers put on the IL - even after accounting for COVID - as in the prior seasons' first two weeks. Claiming these things aren't related is just dishonest.

There also is something about recent TJ guys going down. Maybe it’s coincidence, but I think the Sox got really lucky Kopech isn’t trying to throw 105 right now.

Leury has turned out to be one of the better under the radar moves of the last decade...along with the extension.

We would be totally screwed without him, because Mendick's not an everyday big league SS.

Maybe if more fans would have spoken up and refused to buy the product, MLB wouldn't have been so greedy.

I love you. Want to have my baby?

That was deflating.  With speedy guys on, Renteria is refusing to put them in motion.

Back to hating Adam Engel, lol.

Honestly just lmao at this “pandemic”.  Vast majority of positives are asymptomatic and the overall death rate is barely more than the normal flu.  But yeah lets just stop life for the next 6 years till we have a vaccine

this is a worse take than starting Avi in CF.

He’s terrified to have his guys run into outs

It was a legit question, is this something that is likely to happen now?

Those contracts were already set in stone years if not almost a decade ago, like the Dodgers' massive contract worth something like $2.5 billion.

The Marquee Network was picked up right before the season, should Cubs' fans have boycotted?  They would have missed out of a 7-2 start to the season under a new manager.

I disagree.  The muscular shoulder injuries I would agree with. The UCL are not. They are mechanical in nature not a "getting arm in shape issue. "

My posts seem to be getting a lot of traction. But sure, kick a poster off that's been here for 15 years because you know I'm right. 

madrigal is a cocky fuck, i like it.

I mean, we don't even know what's wrong with him, so I have no idea? I was also just busting your balls.

This is worse than me comparing Yasiel Puig to Roberto Clemente in 2013-2015 and arguing he could be just as good in CF, lol.
