I wish the Braves would have traded Teheran to a team that was panicking. :(

I'll be honest. I used to hate A-Rod and I don't even remember why. I think because the Braves had the second highest offer for him after the Rangers, but I'm even fuzzy on that.

Having said that, I LOVE him now, for the sheer fact that he's a weirdo who trolled MLB and probably made Bud Selig furious on a daily basis. And for that, he is aces in my book.

Was this the last year of his contract?

As good as Trout is, I feel like he still doesn't get the attention he deserves because he plays on the west coast.

Why were all the Rockies players on the field while Stanton was taking BP?

I can't find the tweet but a sports reporter said the one time he was sent to cover Papelbon he had made them turn off Tom Petty in the clubhouse and put on a song called Vote for Trump

I now unironically like Papelbon.

I seriously can't believe the Braves could get anything for Aybar. I mean, granted, what they got wasn't anything to write home about, but still.

Good job. We haven't had a 5 page derail about the DH in a month or so

In case anyone was wondering, Dansby Swanson's dad's name is Cooter.

So are we still going with "Tommy LaStella was angry because he didn't want to be sent down and he's a big baby" while "Chris Sale didn't want to wear a certain uniform so he took scissors and cut the entire team's uniforms to pieces and he's a cool dude"?

Any details on the illegal trade? I'm not an expert on that kind of thing but I'm still curious.

It was probably something harmless like "I'll trade you X player for your first and second round draft picks in next year's draft."

Also, all this talk about Heyward's swing, I remember when he was with the Braves and everyone was trying to "fix" him by telling him to move up on the plate. He seemed to be a victim of the lower outside corner, almost as if he wasn't able to get any wood on it. Is that still happening?

Gooden looked terrible in the 30 for 30.

Also, I liked Heyward when he was with the Braves, but I'm so glad they offered Freeman the long-term extension instead of Heyward because he is just way too inconsistent and infuriating.
