Danny Santana??!! LMAO!!! PED’s didn’t help him at all. He SUCKED for the Red Sox last year!!

Four MLB players, including Brewers catcher Pedro Severino, get 80-game PED suspensions before Opening Day

The other three players -- Richard Rodríguez, Danny Santana and José Rondón -- are all free agents

The Red Sox placed their ace, Chris Frail on the 60 day DL.

Wonderful .... ...

Is he their ace anymore?

 

[BillD1984]

Is he their ace anymore?

Not if he can’t stay on the mound. I would say Nathan Eovaldi is their ace-by default.

Well, it looks like the Red Sox and Yankees has already been cancelled for the opener.
Guess I'll take a nap and watch the Astros at 9:30 instead ...
Tigers don't play on Thursday ???
How do you have an Opening day and NOT have all the teams playing ?

The forecast wasn’t great. Although the worst of it is in the evening.

There’s no doubt that this team can and will rake, but the big question is pitching. Can Wacha and Hill rebound from a very shaky spring to fill the back end of the rotation? Can Whitlock, Houck and Pivetta duplicate very good years. Can Barnes rebound from a disastrous second half last season?

The AL East has the potential to have many good teams this year. Many "experts" are picking 3 teams from there to make the postseason.

One scribe from CBS Sports picked 4 teams from the AL East to make the postseason. IMO, with an imbalanced schedule that will be a tough accomplishment.

So now Streaming services have screwed all of us.
I have the MLB package, should be able to get every out of market game, just like every other year.
Nope, not anymore ... I have to have APPLE TV to watch the game I want to see today.

I don't have Apple TV, nor do I want Apple TV, but I would like to watch the game I want to see. (that I pay for with my current package.

Fortunately MLB plays many many more games than the NFL and College, so missing 1 game now (a few more later in the season) I can deal with.

Those owners were crying poor while cashing in.

The union agreed to bring it back. It’s here.

FOR HOW LONG ?
Hopefully its a 1 year trial.

Currently just 2022, maybe longer.

Players and owners both want it.

Thats like in OT in Football, give the team the ball in the RED Zone to start and you have at LEAST a FG regardless ... thats a GREAT advantage for a team that has struggled to move the ball.

Oh Wait, they DO, do that already.

OT needs to go back to playing the REAL game, in both sports.

 

[BillD1984]

I’m not exactly sure why Matt Barnes is taking up a roster spot, when there was no less than 3 times that Cora should have put him in today’s game.

The AppleTV broadcast is horrible.
