Ian Desmond has always been a rad dude, and from what I gather was de facto team captain while he was with the Nationals. I have an autographed poster of him probably striking out I really need to find a place to hang up. I always liked the idea of a power-hitting shortstop who took the Matt Stairs approach ("Swing hard in case you hit you it") and as frustrating as the April errors were, in retrospect they were kind of endearing in that basically the whole first month of the season was filled with tension and excitement. I really wish he was still on the team when the astros cheated in the world series and still lost

But in all seriousness I'm not happy about the DH coming to the NL, but since it's inevitable I'm trying to view it as a good thing and about how it will help Alec Bohm find a place on the Phillies Major League roster.

I guess it depends if the team is considered the player's medical provider HIPAA might actually apply, who knows I'm sure it's just smoke to cover for the bullshit of having a season at all though

Still firmly thinking there's no way in Hell any games are played this year though. New Zealand or otherwise.

Truly insane. Oh look this player isn't in the lineup or in the dugout or even at the stadium today. He was also not added to the 10-day nor 45-day IL. Welp, better not speculate as to what's going on!

Even if its mandated by HIPPA MLB will absolutely abuse that technicality to claim cases are lower than they really end up being.

How long do you have to play to keep the signing bonus? Not that anyone would but I assume you can’t just sign and then retire

All summer I thought Youtube TV was in a rights dispute with the owner of Fox Sports Southwest (who carries the Rangers games), but it turns out they came to an agreement back on March 5 to keep carrying it, but the new agreement specifically cut Midland/Odessa from the area where it would be carried going forward. What in the gently caress? They pull this poo poo and they're bumping the subscription by $15/month?

quote:Instead, an anonymous person posted the $500 bail, believing they were helping, but let him loose on the streets again. My first thought when the story first broke was that we (baseball fans) could raise the bail instantly, but then I thought maybe he intentionally got arrested so he could spend a few nights indoors so I dunno if that would make the situation worse, and somehow it's almost worse than that? Man, this story sucks so much
