Until the owners think he's more of a liability than an asset.

You should never see "I'm not a gambler" and I'd...mortgage the house on it." in the same paragraph. I use to think I knew enough about baseball that I could hedge a few bets here and there and make a profit. These days I figure a lot of the serious money has computer analytics behind it.

When Jeter lied to the ump about getting hit by a pitch he was cheating. Should he have been excluded from the Hall of Fame?

I didn't even think about that. I was talking about cheating on your spouse with the GF of a drug dealer.

At least from the time I've been here I've seen a number of posters against each of the deals that turned out poorly.

I'm guessing Manfred, Crane and various Astros players have as well. Sad to say but death threats isn't a super high bar.

Better than "accidentally" getting shot.

Are you suggesting that Elias shouldn't be able to work in MLB because he might have known about the sign stealing?

I haven't seen anything from the O's saying he has. The quote I saw was that he gained 25 pounds.

I take all these stories, even a well written one like this example, with a grain of salt. Of course Sisco is going to be complimentary of his coaches.

Are you talking about Crane?

Nice piece. Enlightening.

Kinda like Geddy Lee?

I was also talking of that other thing, in the Dominican.

I can see where Papi would value discretion.

Already a ton of the ones without being in the hall out there.

He could sell his autograph for more if he was in the Hall.

I use the "all activity" button and go from there.

Rose takes this to the next level.

Goodness know he wasn't working on his swing or going to Fanfest.

The point I've been trying to make is that if he put on 25 pounds all of it isn't going to be muscle. If you want to suggest that he put on 25 pounds and his body fat stayed consistent I'm fine with that. It is more accurate to just say he gained 25 pounds, which is what he appears to be doing.

More than the NBA G league ---> NBA? I don't think so.
