  1. Gotta wonder how much the pandemic is affecting the owner's desire to negotiate.
  2. Nicky Lopez was worth 4.4 WAR in 2021, brah.
  3. Longenhagen's take on Blue Jays prospects https://blogs.fangraphs.com/toronto-blue-jays-top-37-prospects-2022/
  4. Surprised he is back for more humiliation. He also abandoned his teams after he turned them to s***, just disappeared, the quitter. Also, I'm not an attorney, but I do have opinions just as you do.
  5. I can't see that being the case. The union has to ratify any deal by membership vote. While it is true the team reps are mostly older players on FA contracts, they and the negotiating team have to consider the needs of the entire membership, or the ratification may fail.
  6. It is mentioned earlier in this thread.
  7. As I said, it is unlikely he is even indicted. All depends on other women coming forward, which I stated on day 1 of this thing.
  8. A complaint by definition contains allegations, not evidence.
  9. Possibly, if he didn't care if MLB Network continued to employ him or not. Usually, employees are careful what they say, lest they piss off the bosses.
  10. From what I understand of the complaint, the face punching and anal sex was the 2nd event, after which she sought the restraining order.
  11. You really need to stop making everything personal, Spank. And its not an assumption, its a fact the text messages made public to date do not give consent to anal sex while unconscious or being punched in the face.
  12. No I don't. He most likely doesn't get indicted, and if he does, its very likely he is acquitted. Whether he plays MLB again depends on the facts that come out.
  13. Explain. Bauer was good for baseball before this happened. Now, doubtful.
  14. I don't think those text messages give legal consent to being punched in the face or anal sex while unconscious. I haven't made the assumption you speak of.
  15. This reads like communism. Labour negotiation is capitalism at work. In this case, players capitalizing on their rare skills to maximize $$. Those that don't make the cut get zilch.
  16. Huh? That's completely wrong. The question is whether Bauer acted without consent. This is a he said / she said case that generally result in acquittal, so it essentially hinges on collaboration from other victims that might have come forward. It's unlikely this is Bauer's first rodeo of such actions. If you are suggesting she gave consent to be punched in the face and anally penetrated while unconscious, I haven't seen such consent anywhere.
  17. I think you have confused him with Druw Jones. Are you OK?
  18. I haven't missed anything. The only things I have said in this threat is his guilt or innocence depends on other victims coming forward, and the longer this goes on, the less likely he pitches in MLB again. So again, what did I miss and what is wrong with what I have posted here?
  19. MLB Network is owned by MLB Advanced Media, a limited partnership of the MLB club owners. It shouldn't surprise anyone that his contract is not renewed. I'd rather Rosenthal be free to speak his mind, rather than be constrained by his employer.
  20. The longer the investigation goes on, the more likely this becomes. The investigation continuing means they are still collecting evidence.
  21. of course they wouldn't, so JH's argument is moot. showing your nasty side again, Spank?
  22. I didn't say he is.
  23. Nah, if they put out a press release it would be to protect or enhance the corporate bottom line. Not as a "virtue signal", "cancel culture", or any other right wing made up grievance reason.
  24. I can see situations where it would be good for business to explain the reasons why an action (or inaction) is taken. You can term this corporate virtue signalling if you want, I see it as protecting or enhancing the corporate bottom line, period.
  25. Young players also want a CBA that takes care of older players. No one immune to the ravages of time.
