Nobody.

I would imagine he would call SNB as well as MNF.

According to what I read he won’t be. He will be producing some content on ESPN+ though….

 

[Jimbo]

Nobody.

Then again, who signs someone for 3 years with an opt out for each year.

He will get traded this year if the team is really bad, or opt out in 2 years.

I agree ....

 

[Don in CT]

I agree ....

The Twins will get a big haul of prospects if they trade him. Might not be a bad investment on their part.

 

[Jimbo]

Looks like Trevor Story will be going to the Red Sox .....
He'll play 2nd base this year ... move over to Short next year when Xander moves on.

 

[Jimbo]

So, we will finally hear about the sign stealing the Yankees were doing ... at the same time the Astros were being accused .... Those Damn Yankees that thought they were above the rules and could get away with it all ... in reality they did, for a few years.
And to think, the Yankees fans mercifully boo'd the Astros about sign stealing in the playoffs last year and /or the year before.

I'll be interested in see what This report has to say.

MLB letter to Yanks on sign stealing to go public

A letter from MLB commissioner Rob Manfred to Yankees GM Brian Cashman regarding the league's findings of its investigation of the team's involvement in sign stealing will be made public.

Let’s see the Mitchell Report, or the reasons why none of the Astros players were suspended. They can’t pick and choose what to release.

They didn't do anything to the Yankees either when it happened and I bet they won't take the harassments that the fans have given the Astros ....

They have done nothing to the Yankees and this has been known for HPOW long now ?
This will get swept under the carpet like everything the yankees do.

 

[Jimbo]

I see MLB has decided to keep the stupid man on 2b during extra innings next year.

 

[Don in CT]

Is there any interest in a fantasy league this year. If we can get 8-12 interested I will start one up.

The White Sox have traded Craig Kimbrel to the Dodgers in exchange for AJ Pollock.

They sure gave up a great young talent to get Kimbrel, and AJ in return?.....Another see how this plays out?

I agree. Kimbrel’s best days are behind him, imo. On the surface this seems like a lopsided trade.

In my occasional J. Verlander watch ...
After being out last year with TJ surgery, he has come back very well so far this spring.
Says he needs to sharpen his command a bit, but it will come.

He will Not be the Opening day starter this year though.

As we all know, Numbers mean Nothing in the Spring, how the player says hes feeling compared to what is Normal for him IS important, and JV never has been one to exaggerate and has always been honest when asked about his pitching.
