Can't wait for the scorching hot right wing takes when an athlete declines an invite to Trump's white house.

Braves get Micah Johnson from LAD for a PTBNL; this news mostly served to remind me that Jace Peterson is still with the Braves. Could have sworn he left in some random deal.

Could be spin, but according to the Cubs MLB.com beat writer his mother in law is recovering from brain surgery. Hopefully it is just that before Jake learns that most Trump supporters would view him as a leftist extremist based on his kale consumption alone.

Thoughts on the Padres possibly extending Wil Myers? I really liked him in his Rookie of the Year season. Great bat speed/upper body quickness. He turns on the ball so fast. Then he sucked in 2014 and 2015, but wrist injuries will do that. I didn't watch him much last year, because Padres, but 28 dingers with PetCo as your home park is pretty decent. I suspect he can still play the outfield too, if the Padres ever get anyone else who hits enough to play first base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPRIDDCeax4

Came to post the Bautista rumors. If true it will soften the blow a little bit about losing Edwin, but I'm still kinda salty about that.

Going to laugh if the Jays give him like $20MM after misjudging the market for power bats and rushing out to get Kendrys Morales.

For 10M a year there are teams that would absolutely give up a pick to sign him, especially if their contention window's probably going to be closed before that pick even gets to AAA.

Teams must really not like Joey Bats if they're not willing to give him at least a couple years at the qualifying offer AAV. I get the age and drop off in production last year but these kinds of hitters don't grow on trees. He's still 6th in OF WRC+ over the last 2 seasons eve with the good but not amazing 2016 factored in.

There's a lot of legitimate concern about Bautista's durability going forward, but I read this recent Fangraphs article that spoke about why he's a pretty solid bounceback candidate.

Those Chernoff faces are OK, but they need a bigger range of head size/HRs. Would be way funnier if Heyward's head was like 1/4 the size of David Ortiz's.

The only thing in abundance this FA season has been older power hitters who can't really field positions well and Bats makes you sacrifice a draft pick for him on top of the contract. I think the only teams left that make sense are Cleveland and Toronto.
