Tommy Lasorda is dead, I guess he got out of the hospital two days ago so he could go pass his final days at home. His legacy is mixed and I am just young enough not to have any particular attachment to his managerial career. He lived a long life and never faced any repercussions for the way he treated his son. But his mascot fueds were pretty funny so we’ll always have that I guess https://twitter.com/cardchronicle/status/1347585246624161792?s=21 https://youtu.be/pmzeK6oAtkk bawfuls fucked around with this message at 17:52 on Jan 8, 2021 |

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:According to new court documents, a former Angels employee used to give a ball doctoring substance to a whole bunch of Angels player. Eventually he gave the substance to a whole bunch of players on other teams, and LAA/MLB knew all about it, until he was fired as a scapegoat I remember hearing about this a year or two ago when he got fired and it was framed as him only giving it to visiting players because he was the visitors clubhouse manager or something. It was a weird story and kinda believable because the Angels have had dogshit pitching for eternity but i am not surprised that the Angels also used it Re: Tommy Lasorda - whatever, my main memory of him is gonna be falling on his rear end at the all star game when an errant bat went flying his way

In case you needed another reminder that Curt Schilling is a piece of poo poo:quote:Curt Schilling, the former baseball great, turned failed gaming entrepreneur, turned disgraced ESPN host, turned Twitter personality pivoted to his latest hobby: volunteer surrogate of a white supremacist rebellion.

It would be funny if the Cubs tried really hard to trade Kris Bryant but no one would take his contract, even as a pure salary dump.

Nats going all in on winning 84 games. Whatever, Schwarber is at least fun. I don't hold out a lot of for them being good but being mediocre in style isn't the worst thing in the world.

Schwarber is fun to watch and he will hit some monster dongs. He'll forever be remembered in Chicago for his absurd come back in the World Series.

10 million for a single year is fine. His arbitration estimate was 8-9 million and people were upset when he was cut so let's not pretend that 10 million is some sort of walk away number that made sense.

surprised to see it in the reactionary paper that has been pretty sycophantic and from a former cubs beat writer who never has actual takes, but the Trib published a column excoriating the ricketts family for being so close to trump. good luck if you click on this navigating the tribune's minigame of closing videos and ads even if you have a blocker. https://www.chicagotribune.com/spor...5~2~4~art%20yes e: sullivan just dropped a "kyrie irving was right" column, he is now Woke.

Sullivan's developed a little bit more of a bite ever since he took over the In the Wake of the News column last year (he was really pissed that the Tribune shitcanned David Haugh), so occasionally he actually drops a worthwhile take. Most of the Tribune's writers are godawful--their Bears beat guy is absolutely intolerable and their Cubs guy, Mark Gonzales, will never pass up an opportunity to suck up to the Rickettses--but Sullivan is ... non-objectionable, I guess? He's a lot better than he used to be during his beat days, when his gimmick was basically "old man yells at cloud," like an even shittier Steve Rosenbloom. It still boggles my mind that he's a past president of the BBWAA.
