Around Baseball 2020

Proof right there that at least one person took him up on the "FYSMC"

 

How do they know it's a girl. Doesn't the world need to wait for this person to tell us what they identify as first?

[Spanky99]

reports are saying it's nothing serious. May have dodged a bullet.

 

I'm not sure, brosoff. He's getting an MRI done today and last night he couldn't even but any weight on it.

 

Buxton was diagnosed with a left foot injury and will receive imaging results Tuesday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Analysis: Manager Rocco Baldelli said that the initial "once-over" of Buxton when he came off the field didn't appear to show anything serious and the team is cautiously optimistic. The Twins will have more information on his condition after receiving imaging results Tuesday. If the 26-year-old is forced to miss an extended period of time to begin the season, Marwin Gonzalez and Jake Cave are likely candidates to see increased playing time in the outfield.

 

Here's video after he snagged his cleat...

The White Sox have given prospect infielder Jake Burger (Achilles) permission to play in a local league in St. Louis this summer.

 

Coming to a men's league near you!

 

lol... he's going to tear that Indy League apart.

I wish Griffin Conine could fine a local league to play in. This season really sucks for guys like Griffin who missed the 60.

I hope there can be some kind of extended Fall league this year just completely filled with the games best prospects, could be huge for a lot of guys development.

Aside from his early days, I really can't think of a time where Puig has been an exceptionally large *******.

[Laika]

 

People do this s*** all the time, in every context, thanks to social media. "Braves fans" is a huge group of different people. I wonder how hard it would be to find actual, specific, Braves fans who loved Donaldson's attitude but hate Puig's.

[Krylian]

 

I guess Atlanta is a racist city.

[Dick_Pole]

 

We all know what this ******* is trying to do, and he should go f*** himself. I hope he gets shot by a black cop.

[RobinThicc]

Braves fans do the chop, that guy is right

I’m pretty sure they also universally adore Acuna, who’s basically JD but younger.

No televised Jays intrasquad game today, but MLB.tv is streaming a lot of other teams televised intrasquads games for free if anyone is jonesing for some content. Just need to create a free account.

'Stros lost setup man Joe Smith to the opt out, ouch.

More innings for my new acquisition Devenski

Yeah saw that, you got em for basically free.

Soto and Robles reported to Nats camp today

Anyone watching the Padres intrasquad? Mackezie Gore is dealin, Edward Oliveres hit a homer off Drew Pomeranz, and Josh Naylor lost a ton of weight. He almost looks unrecognizable.

[BTS]

Damn, surprised it took Franchy Cordero (and Ronald Bolanos) to land Tim Hill. Cordero has huge tools.

[BTS]

Meadows tested positive for covid.

Really? But he's big boned and will always be big

lol... well played, Vladito's far bigger as a man, though.

The Dodgers' big leaguers are showing why the idea of putting recently drafted players along with the MLB squad is a terrible idea.

I missed this yesterday. What are the Padres doing? I don't know of Tim Hill is necessarily a LOOGY but he certainly gets hit harder against RHH than LHH, he's also 30. You really had to give up a promising player in Cordero and a guy who would probably be a better reliever in Bolanos for him?

I think the Padres are perceiving an OF logjam that doesn't really exist. It's Grisham, Pham, and Myers with Olivares and Naylor as the 4th and 5th guys. Preller is the GM version of the BJMB posters who freak out every spring about all the studs who will be blocked at the MLB level.

Meadows tested positive for covid.

 

I wish him a speedy recovery. I hope he's back for the 4th game of the season.
