It's a message board. It's a place of discussion, banter and debate. If you want just updates without said activities then pull up your [expletive] pants and go to any one of the zillions of sports blogs and news sites that simply report rumors and news.

 

I move that the staff create locked update threads for events like this that only they can update so as to shut up the whiners and the rest of us can bull [expletive] in peace.

I mean, maybe I'm wrong here, but teams pull minor leaguers from games because they're not a part of their organization anymore. I dont think the same applies for a world cup game, unless he got traded to japan or something.

Not to defend Kaplan, but how much does the player's team's say-so fit into them playing in something like that? Maybe since the Red Sox technically didn't OK it and he's now being traded he was pulled. Just spitballing; I have zero clue if that's right or not.

RT @thekapman: brett jackson pulled in usa world cup game, signs pointing he may be apart of theo compensation?!

 

 

His source is the World Cup game? Wow.

 

I don't see how it's unreasonable to think that isn't a sign that he was used as compensation. It would be a horrible decision, but depending on the situation in which he was pulled, the 2 options are that he was sent to them or injury, neither of which is a good thing. Id really prefer not have some dreadful outfield combination of Soriano, Byrd, Colvin, and Campana.

"We're removing you from a game where you're playing for your country to let you know you'll be playing for this MLB team in April."

 

He hurt his foot, that's why he was pulled.

And then Heyman to repost the foot injury in 5 hours

 

Meanwhile, Scott Miller chimes in saying that some sources are telling him Jackson tweaked his foot while others are saying he did not.

"Could be an injury; could be that he's traded; could be something else entirely."

 

Or maybe they finally realized that nobody cares about the WBC and decided to pull the plug mid game.

 

It's not the WBC it's the WCoB.

Unless things change, Brett Jackson tweaked his foot. If they do change, he did not.
