Around Baseball 2014

Also hopefully he is heavily insured by Globe Life in the event that Nolan Ryan and some Texas fans assault him for giving their beautiful stadium such a s***** new name.

 

I don't think nolan ryan is with them now, Last I heard he was contemplating joining the Astros Front office

He'll still want to kick some ass over this regardless LOL

that is so bad......i think you're right! LOL

It's the "Centre" part that bothers me.

 

Rogers Ballpark or Rogers Field does sounds a lot better. Maybe they'll change it once the upgrade the stadium. New look, new name, new interest brought in.

Personally I like "The Rog" but pronounced like "Raj"

Even Rogers Stadium would be better. Centre makes it sound like a community rec centre.

[Dylan]

I like stadium or ballpark, but no point in changing it until it's only use is for baseball.

Centre is what it is right now..

 

I really hope we see a big transformation once it does get grass, make it less concrete jungle feeling. It was a good minor start taking out those windows last year.

Why not Rogers Skydome?

I agree with you though, they'll probably change the name once they get grass

I don't think that it will ever stop hosting concerts and events like UFC.

Yeah as long as they do them while the Jays are on 6+ day road trips that's fine. Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park have concerts all the time.

Of course, I meant mainly for baseball.

Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Orioles are the finalists for Arroyo

Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Orioles are the finalists for Arroyo

 

Good, Good

 

But FFS AA, sign Burnett or Jimenez while they're dealing with Arroyo

[jaysfan2014]

Dodgers sign Justin Turner to help boost the depth of their infield, which is not strong due to the uncertainty of Alexander Guerrero and injury risks to Uribe and Ramirez.

 

Former Cub and Mariner Bryan LaHair signs a minors deal with the Indians.

That sucks. Doesn't give much detail. Good luck to you Curt.

Tough few years for Curt, first his video game company goes bankrupt after releasing 1 game (which was actually pretty decent) and now cancer, sucks.

Reports say Josh Hamilton has put on 28 pounds this off season. No pics yet but I'm sure there will be when he gets to Angels camp.

 

Can you put on 28 pounds of muscle from October to February?

 

Oh well, they can cut him slack, cause at least he had a great year in 2013 and provided solid value for 25M right? Oh wait...

I hope for my DDL team's sake it's muscle. I wonder if all that extra muscle will keep him from swinging at every pitch that leaves the pitcher's hand..

I think that is good news as it probably takes them out of the running for Burnett, right?

Not yet - the Orioles can always say he failed his physical.

[G-Snarls]

Plan D maybe???

I'm surprised Oakland hasn't snatched Hanson up - seems like a Billy Beane special Edited February 6, 2014 by G-Snarls

The O's sign AJ.. if they have any decency to their fan base, they will make that deal

Perfect weighted ball candidate with that McGowan shoulder he's got. Seemed like a stud when the Braves first brought him up.
