  1. Brandon Snyder is still going, he is a National now, albeit milb contract. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/mlb/4163/brandon-snyder Nationals signed INF/OF Brandon Snyder to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Snyder spent the majority of the 2018 season with the Triple-A affiliate of the Rays, batting .253/.329/.465 with 18 home runs and 60 RBI in 106 games. The 32-year-old drew just six plate appearances at the major league level last year and zero in 2017. He will be minor league depth for the Nats in 2019.
  2. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/mlb/6440/aderlin-rodriguez Padres signed INF Aderlin Rodriguez to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Rodriguez, 27, batted .286/.335/.478 with 23 home runs at the Double-A level in the Orioles organization last season. He's never played in the majors and looks like a depth signing. Dec 23 - 8:34 AM
  3. That’s what they say. Dodgers at my NL team so kinda hoping they are.
  4. It's not banned, he just didn't have a TUE for the Adderall when he was suspended and did receive one for Vyvanse the year after his suspension. But I don't think anyone knows if he is still on either medication currently (or well this past year while he was playing). So, if it is a focus issue, he really doesn't have a gripe since he can be treated. But like you and others really think, I agree, he's just lost the ability to play at this level.
  5. Yea, pretty sure he has been on Vyvanse, at least for the first year after the suspension. Not sure it has been publicized since then (Hipaa).
  6. Tell us you didn't just pull that from memory, crazy if so. Was interesting to look up both. Scott had to be injury at 24 years old, but Dunn....wow, that is eerily similar for a bad year and similar age. Would be awesome if Davis produced anywhere near Dunn's 2012. Or his 2013 or 2014 for that matter.
  7. Parker Bridwell is a Yankee now. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/mlb/7068/parker-bridwell Yankees claimed RHP Parker Bridwell off waivers from the Angels. Bridwell was designated for assignment by the Angels last week. The 27-year-old missed a bunch of time this past season with an elbow issue, but he enjoyed some success at the major league level in 2017 and will provide the Yankees will some useful depth. Nov 26 - 3:16 PM
  8. Sounds like its related to Ritalin, so yea, that would be it.... http://clinchem.aaccjnls.org/content/56/4/585
  9. Ex-Oriole offspring....Jeff Conine's son suspended. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/mlb/10022/griffin-conine Blue Jays prospect outfielder Griffin Conine has been suspended 50 games for violating the minor-league drug prevention and treatment program. He was suspended for using Ritalinic acid, a stimulant. Conine, the son of former major leaguer Jeff Conine, was the second-round pick of the Blue Jays this year. The 21-year-old batted .243/.314/.430 with seven homers in 57 games during his first stint in pro ball in 2018, mostly with Low-A Vancouver. Now he's going to get a late start on his 2019 campaign.
  10. Since it was pretty much set for these two teams to make the postseason, I have been hoping for the A’s versus the Braves for the WS. And I would be pulling for the Braves, mostly because of Markakis.
  11. Yea, I read more closely and it said "mild" strain and with the only 10 day DL now, probably a good way to keep the innings down and your ace pitcher fresh. I honestly hope he is not hurt, O's season is lost and I like following performances such as his.
  12. Chris Sale to the DL. Shoulder. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mlb.nbcsports.com/2018/08/18/red-sox-place-chris-sale-on-10-day-disabled-list/amp/
  13. That bastard won’t quit!
  14. Ah. 2012. ? Seems like just yesterday.
  15. I know better than to even try. It would fall on phenomenally deaf ears.
  16. And certainly not fat, which is a word all too easily and ignorantly used quite often.
  17. Friends of mine on FB are showing their ignorance in spades. I echo your sentiment!
  18. Right, it could have gone that way with the O's saying they are not happy with the offer, the Braves saying its final as far as prospects are concerned and the O's ask if they would eat some salary for us in the form of O'day to complete the deal.
  19. Yea. Figured something was amiss, but it’s all moving so fast right now! ?
