Can't wait till he blows up

Feel like this is going to be looked back on as the first big domino to fall in a series of major opt outs till the season is eventually cancelled.

[Jimcanuck]

Not enough reason yet to suspend the season.

 

The Marlins should be punished by forfeiting all of the suspended games (win for other team), but solely for the purpose of the 2021 draft order, the games forfeited also count as a Marlins win.

 

Let that be a lesson to every other team.

Shane Bieber has 1.1 fWAR through two starts.

With the news on Eduardo Rodriguez I don’t blame them. The risk to reward scale tilts more unfavourable hour by hour.

Here is the world's smallest violin.

 

f*** Osuna, the only "downer" is that he's still in the league. I still can't believe we traded toxic nuclear waste and somehow got Giles out of it.

Ok, you hate Osuna. What does that have to do with him having arm discomfort?

He's happy to hear it and just needed to hear his name brought up to give him an excuse to show it.

[King]

 

Not accusing Votto of faking but it would be very smart if a player just faked having symptoms and took their bags and went home, still got paid.

So now you don't even have to test positive to be removed, just have a cough or cold?

It sounds like Votto removed himself because he was worried about potentially infecting his teammates.

[Jonn]

 

Hopefully he’s found safe and in good health soon.

Pretty much. For 99% of the Astros, I hope they get humiliated on the field as much as possible, but keep it on the field - them getting hurt is going too far. Osuna is the one single exception - I don't feel the slightest bit bothered by him getting hurt, to put it mildly.

 

 

I hope that they're able to find him and that everything is okay with him. I'd imagine this probably isn't a Darryl Kile situation since they'd probably have checked his hotel room by now. I just hope that this is something we can laugh at afterwards, like another D-Rose situation where he just took off and didn't tell anyone.

Kevin Pillar wirh the 1.098 OPS so far

Lmao Heyman's snapped and gone full Woj. If this is real. Please be real.

[Captain Adama]

Holy s***

 

Tyler Alexander has K'd 9 straight Reds and he's still going.

[Swervin81]

 

I'm glad he's safe... you never know with Nightengale, but I doubt even he would tweet out something way off about something that serious.

 

I'm still curious as to where he is. Is this really just another D-Rose situation?

[Dick_Pole]

I'm kinda hoping the Astros win many World Series now. They are slowly becoming my second favourite team. The whinebags who think they are morally superior by pointing out the flaws in others and wishing for pain, failure and embarrassment online would have their heads explode.

The Rays are about to be swept by the Orioles and losers of 5 straight

Love it

 

Orioles will eventually sink to the bottom of course but thanks for keeping second place closer for now

[Jonn]

We have a chance to go after Kumar Rocker and I think we should take it. 50 game tank super worth.

Cespedes has announced that he will sit out the rest of the season

 

WTF

 

What a guy...

Tyler Alexander. 9K's in a row.

Lol. Reminds me of when I used to work retail and a guy would call 2 hours after he was supposed to show up for his shift to say he wasn’t coming
