The Yankees had Jacob Ellsbury killed and sent his body to space in the trunk of a Tesla, and he's still owed 47 million for two more years after this.

N: Cardinals President of Baseball Operations John Mozeliak tore into Dexter Fowler in a radio interviewMozeliak posted:“It’s been a frustrating year for everybody involved. Here’s a guy who wants to go out and play well. I think he would tell you it’s hard to do that when you’re not playing on a consistent basis. But I’ve also had a lot of people come up to me and question his effort and his energy level. You know, those are things that I can’t defend. What I can defend is trying to create opportunities for him, but not if it’s at the expense of someone who’s out there hustling and playing hard. And really I think everyone just needs to take a hard look in the mirror, and decide what they want that next chapter to look like. And in Dexter’s case, maybe taking a brief time out, trying to reassess himself, and then give him a chance for a strong second half is probably what’s best for everybody. I’m hopeful to touch base with him in the near future and decide what makes the most sense, but clearly he’s not playing at the level we had hoped.” V: Free Fowler and gently caress the loving Cardinals holy poo poo what is wrong with you.

Carlosologist posted:St. Louis must be a wonderful place if you're a minority player It's probably pretty nice if you're playing well but God forbid you have a slump cause you'll be endlessly questioned regarding how hard you play. If you're the President of baseball operations you really ought to have a concrete example of why you think he isn't playing hard because that's a very nebelous statement to be making about a guy who should be a key part of your team.

I would love if the Cubs took on Fowler's contract at this point. I would also love if Mozeliak and company did a full-on rebuild because the team is going to finish .500 for the next decade at this rate.

Kemp's career BABip is .340 though. Certainly Harper is having a tough go of it with his though.

He skipped straight up from AA (he's thrown 25 innings total above A-ball) but his stuff is filthy. I'm sure he's gonna have a game where he gets blown up but I dunno if another young team is gonna be the ones who do it. EDIT: For sure I just jinxed it but still.

That statement questioning his "effort and energy level" is total bullshit and gently caress Mo for saying that, but right now I would absolutely prefer to have Harrison Bader in the game over Dex almost 100% of the time if we actually want to win baseball games. He's slashing .171/.276/.278 in a corner OF spot. And it's July  Thom P. Tiers posted:I would love if Mo fired Matheny and then hosed off himself tbh.

The Braves brought up Michael Reed, who by consensus is Not A Prospect but has been hitting everything at Gwinnett, as well as DL'ing Peter Moylan finally and bringing up Evan Phillips, maybe even to pitch this time.
