League rule: What's so f***ing hard?!

Why didn't you answer me via PM? You've benched 21 players in the last 2 weeks alone by not setting your lineups, I'm a co-commissioner in this league you f***ing asshat! That's unacceptable. League rule you dolt:

Different front office... the Sabres made out like bandits.

....

Yeah, no way around that.

Hnnngghhh...

Yeah, stole 3rd.

Buffalo get Montour. Faaaaack where were the Leafs!

Zuccarello broke his arm in his Dallas debut, how's that for luck.

Marlins rookie Victor Victor Mesa strains hamstring an hour ago BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) — Miami Marlins outfield prospect Victor Victor Mesa strained his right hamstring Sunday in a spring training game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Mesa pulled up and grabbed his hamstring after beating out a groundball and avoiding a double play in the sixth inning. He was removed from the game. Mesa was to return to the Marlins’ camp in Jupiter on Sunday rather than accompany the team to Port Charlotte for a game Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays. “I was running very fast to break the double play and I felt pressure in my leg,” Mesa said through a translator. “Obviously, there was a small amount of pain, but I felt more pressure than pain in the muscle and hopefully I’ll be back very soon.” The Marlins signed the Cuban native to a $5.25 million bonus last October. The 22-year-old Mesa had not played in a game in nearly two years following his defection from Cuba. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/tag/MLB and

Indians, slugger Ramirez agree to minor league contract Feb 24, 2019 GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) Free agent first baseman Hanley Ramirez has agreed to sign a minor league contract with the Cleveland Indians. Ramirez, a former National League Rookie of the Year, will sign with the three-time defending AL Central champions and join them in camp once he passes a physical. The Athletic was first to report the deal. Ramirez, 35, played in just 44 games last season with Boston before he was released in May. He hit .254 with six home runs and 29 RBIs for the Red Sox, and did not sign with another team. "Good for him," Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Sunday. "He's an everyday player. If he gets at-bats he might be able to produce. He's still young enough." A three-time All-Star, Ramirez is a .290 career hitter with 296 career home runs. He might be able to bring some pop to Cleveland's lineup, which needs some power following the trades of slugger Edwin Encarnacion and first baseman Yonder Alonso and after outfielder Michael Brantley signing with Houston. Ramirez was the NL's top rookie in 2006 with Florida. He signed a four-year, $88 million contract with Boston in 2015, but fell way short of expectations and the Red Sox let him go after he batted just .254 last season. --- More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP-Sports

Captain obvious, lol. By LAURA ARMSTRONGStaff Reporter Sat., Feb. 23, 2019 DUNEDIN, FLA.—There is no sugar-coating the position Dalton Pompey finds himself in this spring. The 26-year-old Mississauga-born outfielder is out of options heading into the 2019 season, and nearly out of chances with the Toronto Blue Jays. “It’s pretty black or white, the writing’s really on the wall,” Pompey said Saturday. “It’s either I make the team or I don’t.” General manager Ross Atkins knows it, too. “I wish he certainly did have an option but, in some ways, it’s good for him to now find out, ‘OK, is this going to work at the major-league level or am I going to be doing it with someone else?’” Atkins said earlier this week. It’s been a tough few years for Pompey since he debuted in September 2014 and contributed to the Jays’ post-season run the following fall. He has had turf toe, a bone bruise on his heel, a sprained knee, concussions, a bone bruise to his knee. a wrist injury, a torn ligament in his left thumb, a tight back and a suspension for violating team policy in Buffalo last August following an altercation with Bisons manager Bobby Meacham. He played just 57 games last season. most of them in Triple-A in what he had hoped would be a comeback year. Pompey says there is little difference now from the youngster who delighted Toronto fans nearly four years ago, a five-tool player and switch-hitter who attacked the game with speed and aggression. He slashed .272/.352/.418 with five home runs, 23 RBIs, 12 doubles and 11 stolen bases last year. “I can’t go back and change anything,” he said. “Injuries are what they are and I can’t take those away but I’m still the same player, it’s just sometimes you just get lost in the shuffle.” There were times in 2018 when Pompey says he didn’t play to his ability, for fear of getting hurt, like when he slid hard into third base to cause that thumb injury. He stopped being as aggressive because he wanted to stay on the field. That won’t fly this spring. Pompey needs to play without hesitation to make the best impression. “The way I play, there’s a chance I could get hurt,” he said. “The position I’m in now, I just have to leave it all out there and just go from there.” With a new manager in Charlie Montoyo and a handful of new big-league coaches, Pompey feels like he is working with a clean slate. Montoyo is pleased with the outfielder’s attitude in the clubhouse. “I just saw him from the other side. I’ve seen all the tools and stuff so I want to see that, I want to see that guy,” Montoyo said. “He could be a pleasant surprise. Who knows?” With Kevin Pillar, Randal Grichuk and Teoscar Hernandez likely guaranteed spots on the 25-man roster, there will probably only be room for one more outfielder. Pompey is fighting Billy McKinney, Dwight Smith Jr. and Anthony Alford, among others, for that spot. Atkins said the team has some time before it makes a decision on Pompey’s future, and believes “a lot could happen in the way of performance.” But Pompey is also taking up a valuable spot on the Jays’ 40-man roster and Toronto could find itself at a crossroads if it adds pitching depth, as Atkins hopes to do. Pompey started in right field in Saturday’s Grapefruit League opener, a 4-0 loss to the Detroit Tigers. He went 0-for-2 at the plate but showed his speed when he chased down a liner by left fielder Christin Stewart in the fourth inning. “If I make the team, then great. Obviously I grew up outside of Toronto, that would be amazing,” Pompey said. “If not, then I can move on and at least look myself in the mirror and say I did everything I could. Hopefully that was enough to inspire another team to take a chance on me.”

This was true... I called it.

Yeah, I don't see him as garbage or anything, as have people have suggested. He could be anywhere from a number 3 like Key, or a backend guy, definitely think he's a SP rotation main keep.

Shed Long went yard today, he's going to be good. Great team fellas.

This series is nuts... supposed to rain tomorrow too... heading to 3-3 OT as players are soaked ice is soaked, cameras are soaked so stupid... http://www.worldcupfootball.me/nhl/2018020953/h

He likely let it loose as he was only going an inning or two. He is vying for a job after all.
