The mayors of the cities hosting teams in the Phoenix area sent a letter to Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred, asking for the start of training camps to be postponed because of the severity of the spread of the coronavirus at present in Arizona.



The suck continues.

Did he tell them to go fuck themselves and then instruct all of the MLB teams to hold Spring Training in Florida?

So far MLB seems to be of the opinion that Spring Training is go off like normal.

guessing from context Keeping up Appearances


Keeping Up Appearances is about social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced by her like bouquet because it sounds more high class). She has a henpecked husband Richard who just tries to go through life in spite of her misadventures. Hyacinth comes from the most British version of white trash there is. Daddy is a war veteran with dementia who chases every skirt in England, her sister Violet is married to a cross dressing bookie, her sister Rose is a floozie, her sister Daisy is sex starved and married to lovable lout Onslow ( my avatar). Everyone from her family to her neighbors to the local vicar is exasperated by her domineering ways, but her attempts to climb the social ladder always backfire.

It is maybe the funniest show I have ever seen.

That would imply that Manfred gives a fuck about baseball/the health of MLB.

In case you want more evidence of this being true, a source spoke with The Athletic today saying the MLB pressured the mayors to write the fucking letters asking for Spring Training to be postponed.

Obviously MLB is denying that.

Wilson Ramos is coming to Detroit.

We've quietly put together a decent winter. We added a lot of former major leaguers to the farm system so that if someone goes down we don't have to call up a guy from Single A with 8 total games in the minors (no seriously, that happened in 2019, couple of times). We added Grossman, we added Ramos, not game changers, but good bats. Also, we brought in a great manager and coaching staff. You people want to beat that trash can about Hinch, fine, but...you know he's good. This will be a better year.

As long as that piece of shit in Florida doesn't cave in like those fucks in Arizona did. Believe me, you think that fuck in the buffalo suit was a terrorist? You do not want to see me go apeshit in my Tigers pajamas. I'll leave it at that.

Also, the Capitol Trespassing (let's call it like it is), eliminated any possibility that Kurt Schilling will ever make it into the Hall of Fame.

You know it.

Did Kurt Schilling have any role in that? No.

I think Omar(the wife beating thing really hurt him this year imo) and Rolen make big jumps next year and make it in 2024. I'm not seeing anybody who really jumps out as sure fire HOFers in those classes, although it will be interesting to see what they do with Arod and Ortiz next year.

Raped in the ass?

Rosario was the #2 prospect in all of baseball a couple years ago. We have him for 3 more years.

Source- https://www.mlb.com/amp/news/mets-amed-rosario-rated-as-no-2-prospect-c244420396.html

Giminez was the Mets #1 prospect and ranked 60 in all of baseball. He lost his rookie status by 3AB. He's 21 and made the majors.

source- https://www.mlb.com/amp/news/andres-gimenez-cracks-top-100-prospects-list-c287502074.html

and Wolf seems solid (TINSTAAPP) but with the way we pull Cy Young winners from couch cushions I'm confident he'll be fine.

im so glad you said that because I'm sure this take is gonna blow up in your face and I'll be here to point it out every time. Can't wait.

I don’t think one should compare the Pittsburgh Pirates to the Cleveland Indians.  Unless you are talking about Cleveland’s AA club

Cleveland might actually make an effort to put a reasonably competitive team on the field.   nutting doesn’t care.  You’ll take the chinesium booble heads and fireworks and like it.
