Status: offline 		Now I realize this will bite me in the ass ... but why does Chicago live with Jason Heyward in their lineup?
I must have zero scouting ability because to me he has been their weakest link, by about ten times ... for years.
he kept their games close last year, by being so putrid, imo.

3.66 ERA with 6.4 K/9, 2.2 BB/9 and a 47.8 percent ground-ball rate


Will apparently get Cobb at least 18 mill

Rays, .....nonetheless expected to make righty Alex Cobb an $18.1MM qualifying offer

Status: offline 		Charley Walters of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports (via Twitter) that former Twins skipper and current Diamondbacks bench coach Ron Gardenhire is among the three favorites to succeed John Farrell as the next manager of the Red Sox. Indeed, Walters calls Gardenhire one of the “final three” for the post — a surprising development just over 24 hours after Farrell was dismissed.

Gotta agree
These have all turned into Yankee/Bosox marathons

At least I'll be able to focus all of my hate on one team.

Status: offline 		A 9-inning game that lasts nearly 5 hours, with no weather delays. I dozed off in 7th and 8th, but woke up with 2 outs on the Nats in the 9th....so I did see the end. Shoulda gone to sleep after the ridiculous 5th inning.

Please let this happen.

That's why I don't put 100% stock into the theory that you NEED an ace. You just don't. And Sabathia is no ace anymore. You just need your pitchers to pitch well in the playoffs, ace or not. Kluber, Scherzer, Kershaw, all playoff jokes. And there were others as well.
