The red sox are easily the most unethical and disgraceful organizations in sports.

 

Cora just said the Jays offered him a position as well but he wanted to manage again.

Scummy move on our part if true. We shouldn't have people like him in the organization.

If if were up to me the guy would have been slapped with a lifetime ban from baseball. Being at the front and center of two cheating scandals and only getting a one year suspension is laughable.

Any team that hires him is validating that kind of behaviour and looking to benefit from it. Any future success he has is going to come with a massive asterisk.

You know Dave Hudgens is the bench coach, right?

"Many teammates felt they had already been exposed to Mr. Turner and were prepared to tolerate the additional risk," Manfred said.

 

Not the brightest bunch.

 

Have you ever been on a sports team? Don’t mean to use the tired takedown but genuinely it makes you understand the moment just a little more.

 

If you said they were irresponsible it’d be one thing but to suggest they’re stupid is wrong.

Yes, you are also entitled to your own opinion.

Nine members of the Los Angeles Dodgers organization and one family member have tested positive for the coronavirus, county health officials said.

 

The announcement comes barely more than a week after the team won the World Series.

 

The number of Dodgers organization cases was initially five, according to a Los Angeles County Department of Public Health post on Thursday that was updated Friday.

 

But a health department spokesperson said Saturday that there were four additional positive tests.

Wow!

A person with knowledge of the situation who wasn’t authorized to speak on the record said none of the five positive tests came from people inside the Dodgers’ playoff bubble in Texas last month, where third baseman Justin Turner tested positive and was removed during the team’s World Series-clinching win Oct. 27.

 

Seems relevant. Sorry to kill your buzz King and Jim.

Sounds like a cover up to me. Keep eating up the Fake News though!

I know you would be happier if Justin Turner was charged with attempted manslaughter, but it's just not going to happen.

Hurry up and profit off this before he tests positive for something. Not buying the "500 pushups a day" story lol.

 

This is dumb. Has there been a player in the last 10 years who significantly improved their skills and then was later buster for PEDs?

Montas? Maybe Dee Gordon in 2015 (caught in April 2016).

Chris Davis comes to mind. Definitely not the same player without the adderall.

Nelson Cruz pops to mind right away. Braun. As soon as he went off wasn’t same player.

A lot of the positives in baseball’s history came outside of testing which calls into question if they’re catching cheaters.

Chris Collabello? Lol

 

Dude went from a .300 hitter to outta the league pretty damn fast.

 

And I wouldn't say hes 100% on the juice. People assumed the same with Bautista all these years. Just wanted to begin the speculation on it lol.
