    I don’t think any of you guys understand what a new baseball feels like vs a baseball that you have the ability to grip. Yes I know they mud the balls beforehand but it’s clearly an inconsistent process. These guys are using a new ball virtually every hitter. I’m all for controlling the use of gripping agents, but it’s tiring listening to people call these guys cry babies or cheaters without really understanding what it’s like. It’s insane to change (or start enforcing) rules midway through a season in any sport.

    The dudes who throw the baseballs for a living are the ones who understand the impact the most. I don’t buy that hitters are unanimously jumping for joy. Did you watch the whole video? Glasnow says they had all the union reps on the call and nobody wants to completely outlaw substances.

    What argument are you trying to make here?

    You’re absolutely correct Jim. For the league to turn a blind eye for years and then all of a sudden half way through the season begin enforcing it is insane. If more guys start dropping like flys MLB is going to have a real “sticky” situation on their hands. I don’t care if they said they were going to monitor it more closely this year. They chose to do nothing until they felt the external pressure from the industry. They keep f***ing with the baseballs in some desperate attempt at parity. This is 1000% on the league and their years of negligence. I’m amazed how many guys are taking the side of the corporation and not the side of the actual dudes who play the game who are clearly the ones who understand the impact the most.

    Lol

    Lots of message board MD’s in this thread lol. Of course removing a tacky substance from the fingertips that are supposed to rotate a 5 oz baseball at RPM’s north of 2000 is going to create a brand new stress on the flexors that protect the elbow. MLB dropped the ball again. Manfred is a clown and is embarrassing the league.

    So if I have 17 players with red flags I can keep them all along with my active 26 man roster throughout the winter. Correct?

    What about in Chicago?

    We should've put those who were scared of the virus in a bubble to start with and let the normal people live their lives
  11. L54
    That would be like 60% of the league lol
  12. L54
    You're an idiot
  13. L54
    Do we keep the entirety of our rosters forever now? Or will there still be a cut down to 25 men?

    I want Trevor Bauer in Toronto just so half this board is miserable every single night he makes a start. Single handedly forced the MLB's hand to crack down on cheaters and people still hate him!
  15. L54
    I think he just sucks. A sobering reminder that prospects are just that... prospective players.
  16. L54
    Trevor Bauer is an absolute stud. Can he opt out again this year? I would pay him a lot of money next off season he's exactly what this team needs.
  17. L54
    Jim we both know why I offered it. I was giving you the chance to pull chute I owned him in BORED and was the first owner to drop him the day of the allegations
  18. L54
    He's trying to move him still. Offered me that piece of s*** for a 6th round pick Just drop him Jim. It's time to move on.
  19. L54
    Wow he legitimately can't even more anymore.
  20. L54
    It always will

    That’s awesome. For years I’ve said it makes sense to invest in these players in the minors for a relatively low cost. Giving them access to a S&C coach, nutrition, and a weight room would go a long way in player development of 18-22 year olds.

    BREAKING: Good players are valuable.
  24. L54
    Clearly it doesn't make sense to employ someone who sucks.
  25. L54
    Whenever someone laughs at somebody pointing out the leadership and professional qualities a veteran player can bring to an organization my immediate thought is that guy was always picked last in gym class. Zero clue on what a winning culture actually feels like. If you don't think the type of person these guys are affects how some teams view them as a free agent then stick to reading spreadsheets and parroting Fangraphs.
