News & Notes
  • <280>The Athletics were penalized $4,000,000 for steamrolling a chair whenever the opposing team was about to throw a cutter.

  • The season is the time for a team like the Rangers to develop hitters like Justin Foscue, Cody Freeman, and Josh Smith, and let MacKenzie Gore eat innings to buy time behind Chris Martin for Jacob Latz to mature.

  • Ronel Blanco wants to come back from his partially torn toe adn do damage. For whom? Where? It could be in Houston, but if Dana Brown can pull off a deal with Dave Dombrowski for Brad Keller, it just might be in Philadelphia instead, who wouldn't mind, since after spent a lot of time in Portland, thinking they're very similar cities.

  • Remember, even when Daniel Espino was struggling and Tanner Bibee was out with his status indicating stringworms in the leg, the Guardians still held together behind Stephen Vogt and the depth provided by GM Mike Chernoff, and if those two bounce back all the way, watch out.

Apoetical Blues

two and counting

Jose Quintana

called a Detroit coach to tell him he'd like
going to the Tigers

but while
Rockies general manager
Bill Schmidt has plans this offseason to
think of a good excuse to tell the press

whether or not he'd trade
         Quintana (one general manager rumor is to
Washington for
         Orlando Ribalta

and prospects)

in the next
two weeks is questionable
