    Ok. There's also been rumors about Warren and Candelario that have been shot down. Plenty of crazy rumors out there. I just think she gets a lot of unfair criticism. The NY Post gets criticism too. Uh, ok. Not really relevant, but neat.

    She didn't say it was still a possibility. She said there were conflicting reports. Eh, I don't remember seeing another one with Soler attached, other than hers to begin with. Ok.

    Within minutes of DiCaro mentioning its still a possibility. 3-2-1 before another source of hers confirms he's not. She didn't say it was still a possibility. She said there were conflicting reports.

    Yankees fans are afraid that this will just be for Torres and don't think that's enough.

    The athlete's accommodations are uninhabitable. The Australians said there was water flowing down the walls when toilets were flushed, the smell of gas, and exposed wiring. They're staying in a hotel for now. [tweet] [/tweet] http://deadspin.com/rio-olympics-athletes-village-declared-uninhabitable-1784219622

    Well at least he's kinda permanently resolved the like him/hate him controversy.

    Chris Cotillo also reported that the Braves are open to trading Pierzynski, so clearly has his finger on the pulse of the MLB.

    Guys, come on....there's like a 0% chance that the White Sox trade Sale to the Cubs. What a PR nightmare that would be. Sox fans may come to terms with trading Sale, but to the Cubs? I just don't see it at all.

    I find it hard to believe we're truly in on these outfielders. It just seems rather ridiculous.

    Limit the number of pitchers you can use in an inning to say, 3. That's all they're talking about.

    One of the troubles with Twitter as a news source is that writers are way to quick to try and spin some guy saids into more than just that. Especially in a calm before the storm time such as this. Oh man thanks for informing us about the reliability or lack thereof re: twitter.

    Well it's worth getting upset over because it's coming from the guy who runs the league, not some sports talk idiot. I just think the underlying premise is flawed, that the way to make baseball more popular is to shorten games by 10 minutes. People who didn't like it before still won't like it, and fans who enjoyed spending a day at the ballpark would have that experience cut shorter (for the same price). I think you're making a lot of assumptions here. I don't think there would be the emphasis there is on pace of play/length of games if there wasn't data that suggested it would bring more eyeballs, or at least retain them.

    yep. people around me go crazy for weird [expletive] pumped out by Hurts Donut (:eyeroll:). I'll take a bag of little Hostess ones or a hot Krispy Kreme with the glorious [expletive] all over it i totally get the krispy kreme thing...but hostess ones over a good specialty doughnut shop? this post sounds like GET OFF MY LAWN WITH ALL YOUR FANCY NEWFANGLED HIP DOUGHNUTS A gif at the end of the sentence? http://img.pandawhale.com/post-27424-what-is-this-amateur-hour-gif-MIwC.gif

    lol, I just think it's awesome because of people getting all bent out of shape over it. Relax...if they can't get the NL to adopt the DH, they aren't gonna get the union to allow changes in rules regarding relief pitchers that could impact the demand for those pitchers.

    If society at large decides his name is Dwayne, I think that makes it so.

    Miggy is shifting gears from enthusiastic cheerleader to emotional heartstrings puller [tweet] [/tweet] I get enough of that [expletive] on facebook. I feel bad about this now. At work the picture didn't load, just saw the text of the tweet. That's pretty damn adorable.

    Woj: NBA will be pulling the ASG from Charlotte because they haven't changed LGBT laws. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba-pulls-2017-all-star-game-from-charlotte-focuses-on-new-orleans-190148437.html

    I don't understand how "smart" baseball guys can know the playoffs are a crapshoot and still think any move that requires a long term sacrifice of wins makes sense. The improvement in the odds in the playoffs for what even Miller and Chapman would bring is so damn marginal. It's like, most of the informed baseball public knows the playoffs are basically a roll of the dice...making moves that sacrifice the long term to secure a playoff berth makes a lot of sense. Making moves that do so in an effort to improve the chances of a team already virtually assured of a playoff berth will never make any sense to me and people talk about it all the time. People who understand the playoffs are a crapshoot. Thank god Theo and Jed obviously know this (as they've publicly said it many times). [tweet] [/tweet] Skimmed that Cameron article during lunch...It's hilarious to me how people just refuse to accept that the Cubs want to keep Schwarber.
