Fuck the DH
I just called in to say, I think it's really awesome how the Red Sox are trying so hard to compete to be the most hated team in the sport. Last year's dropping Mookie because of being cheap greedy bastards really was something I felt a lot of the public slept on, credit was not given where deserved, but hiring Cora in the following year really puts a context on it that, you know, I think even NL fans, west coast fans, they're going to sit up and take notice.

Thanks for taking my call, Jim, I'll get off the air now.

I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.
Cohen fired the Mets front office 2 hours after the ink was dry.

To be fair, Betts also got a pass, and there was plenty of "Thank god for Julio Urias" stuff in these very threads

Betts won the MVP and beat the Dodgers in the WS in 2018 when the Red Sox were probably cheating. Also just as dire he apparently gave a really cringey locker room speech when he first came to the Dodgers.

Urias got into a fight with his girlfriend in a parking lot and shoved her to the ground.

Guess that means Taijuan Walker won't be back since I think the Jays wanted to fill two spots in the rotation, one at the back end and one at the front.

Red Sox stuff was in MLB's report. The report made it seem not nearly as extensive as the Astros scheme (largely because it said the Red Sox were only signaling batters with a runner on 2nd) so people just never got all that riled up about it.

Probably because if mlb tries to bring the hammer down on Turner the union will in turn bring receipts on how nonexistent the bubble was and the league doesn't want that.
