For how long? To what end?
-
Of course. What he did was wrong and he knew it. But I don't think that's the question. The question is whether he should continue to be punished if, as in the case of many offenders his age, he's now a healthy adult.
-
A lot of kids who do this kind of thing don't re-offend as adults. If he's actually healthy now, he should be given a chance to resume his life. As others are saying, teams will have to really do their homework here.
-
Not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, he's going to hear about this as long as he's in the public eye, and it might be a legit distraction for his team. On the other, what's the point of these rehabilitation programs if adults can't participate in society because of something they did when they were younger? I don't really understand the argument that he shouldn't be allowed to play on ethical grounds. I understand why teams might avoid the headache though.
-
Yeah, from what I'm reading he's probably a top-50 pick if this doesn't break. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Twitter seems generally outraged at the idea of him ever playing again, but you have to think some team will see this as an opportunity, especially if he starts slipping down the board. Probably signable for well under slot too.

http://larrybrownsports.com/baseball/cubs-luke-heimlich-off-draft-board-sex-offender-news/374743 Where was this kid supposed to go in the draft? Seems un-Cubs like to take him off their draft board if he's a top talent that might fall because of this.

I bid Roman Quinn. I have no idea who is ahead.
-
Posting this to remind myself to switch pick 52 to jaysblue on the sheet for our Folty swap in February.
-
Still looking to move pick #40 and Riley Pint. Looking to swap each for a 1st round waiver pick or 2018 MiLB 2nd. Would also package them up for a decent keeper-worthy SP4/5.
-
Confirmed and will process tonight.
-
Interesting that you guys hate this. I'm not a basketball fan, and the dominance of GS and their rivalry with Cleveland has me watching basketball for the first time in years. Dynasties are interesting if you have no rooting interest in another team!
-
I've straight up been swung on while breaking up with someone, and had to do the bear-hug restraint until she calmed down. We're friendly now, and the thought never crossed my mind that anyone should be reported and dragged through the mud. I'm in no way excusing actual violence or abuse, but every adult has been in situations that would make them look terrible if detailed in a one-sided account on social media.
-
Hendricks to the DL now. Meanwhile Puig has a 90 wRC+ and Correa is a super-elite dynasty asset. njh is the worst. I hope you sent poor boxy away with a gift basket.
-
Now the league has to investigate Addison Russell because his wife's friend posted that he physically and mentally abused his wife.
-
I doubt it. Feels like a blow up where both parties make mistakes, but no actual damage is done and they're better off walking away from each other.
-
Damn, Maeda being moved to the bullpen. I was really counting on him this year and he's been terrible.
-
Anybody want Roman Quinn for pick upgrade?
-
There is nobody in this league that I don't trust to act like an honourable gentleman.
-
Nah, it's been done before. It won't be processed until after the draft or enforced by the league, but pick 33 for future considerations, which ends up being a 2018 2nd once they're generated, is fine.
-
looking to do a few things: - Givens available for a 1st round waiver pick - Riley Pint available for 1st round waiver pick - Clippard or Neshek available for an upgrade on one of my top-4 MiLB picks - picks 32, 33, 40 available for 2018 2nds - would also move any combination of the above or other stuff for a SP
-
I complete forgot that Morales was ever on this team.
-
Hendriks trade Howell signing Pearce so far 3 minor misses, and a whole bunch of wins. The team is in great hands.
-
Edwin looks very unappealing. Numbers down across the board last year, and down again even more this year. I'll pass on the 20M DH's age-35 and 36 seasons when there are very real concerns that he's not an elite hitter anymore.
-
BJMB pretty much all agrees here. First time that's happened since we all hated JPA?
-
Liriano. There's a 3-4-win starter in there if he settles in, and I give him every chance to hit his stride, especially given that he's trade bait if the team falls out of contention. Also, it keeps Biagini's workload down in case he's needed in the rotation later on this year.
