Red Sox headed to arbitration with Mookie Betts

Betts’ representatives made a bold request of $10.5 million, while the Red Sox came in far below, at $7.5 million.

Inb4 Shatkins trades both for a utility outfielder, a middle reliever and cash considerations.

Only way either of those guys are getting traded is for a chris sale type player.

Although... is this the same GM that traded Syndergaard for RA Dickey?

Jays are def set up well for a run a few years from now, I’ll be interested to see what moves they make with their veterans and how they structure their roster going forward.

Red Sox:
Jay Groome coming in at number 83 on the @BaseballAmerica Top 100 is the lowest the club's top prospect has ever ranked in that publication's ranking, dating back to 1990.


Groome is about 19 years old, has a total of 17 minor league games pitched over 2 years, and is 2-3 years away from the majors.  The future is bright.

There's no earthly reason why I opened this thread. I am so happy I did though, to read inspiring hopeful news about a team I couldn't give three shits about. Man I am going to go celebrate.

Apparently MLB pressured Cleveland into removing the Chief Wahoo insignia from their uniforms due to racism, this will happen in 2019.


I'm not sure why there's an uproar, it's a cartoon pic of a smiling native American.  I could think of much worse to take offense to.

So they'll no longer be "Wahoo Indians"?

The Braves used to have Chief Nokahoma dancing around a tepee in the left field seats. I'm thinking they couldn't get away with that now.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.
