After all that nonsense the last few days, I find it hard to believe any team will be willing to. Maybe late in the year during a playoff push.
It almost makes you wonder if it's intentional. Get some guaranteed money from a few teams, force the teams to release you, and leave football to do whatever the f*** you want with no more injuries or brain trauma.
While I understand Kershaw being pissed, the Dodgers have things wrapped up for the postseason. There's no reason to push a guy now that they need completely healthy in a few weeks.
We've allowed the 13th most unearned runs as a percentage of total runs, and 11th most total unearned runs. Teams worse than us include the Dodgers and Braves.
Complains about young Jays players striking out. Proceeds to show clips with players rung up on balls outside the zone. Yup, clearly they're doing something wrong.
Agree 100%. Zaun had a handful of really good segments too, talking about and demonstrating game fundamentals. We need a lot more of that kind of thing.
I've always thought Rogers would be smart to do a series of training videos in the offseason with some of the players and coaches that kids can watch and learn from. It would be really fantastic PR, and help a lot of kids in the process.
He's playing through a sore foot. I'm not too worried about the defense.
I wouldn't give him stupid money, but he seems like someone who will almost certainly return surplus value otherwise.
Meh, against Tampa you have to keep things fairly balanced in terms of lefties/righties or they'll bullpen you to death. I think Fisher should be 7th pushing the others down, but other than that I really don't have an issue with it. Smoak is a heavy pull hitter who hits into the shift a lot, Tampa shifts a lot, and Pruitt is a ground ball machine. Not the best matchup in the world for Smoak.
I don't think they'll cut Font, although you certainly never know. We can control him for 4 more years I believe, and since he's joined us he's really been excellent. 26.1 innings, 2.39 BB/9, 12.65 K/9, 3.21 xFIP
