Every so often, a few times a year, doesn’t matter which sport, you’ll see a trade where you think “damn, my team should have been in on that.” Doesn’t matter which team you’re a fan of.  “That’s all it took to land him? How could they not beat that offer?”

The Rockies gift wrapped Nolan Arenado for the Cardinals. Horrendous package, not a single top prospect back in return for a top player in the league.

The way MB's post looked when you quoted it made me think for a second that "I hated this guy" was part of Rosenthal's tweet.

This is either going to go disastrously wrong (injuries) or incredibly right (he keeps playing like he has/better more consistently)

Either way, HYPE

tfw when you throw away your career to impress the rotary club.

I'm honestly struggling to see what he said that was too wrong. Obviously I don't know baseball, but service time manipulation is a pretty standard thing elsewhere e.g. a young player being sent down after nine games in the NHL to avoid burning a year of eligibility. It's just a function of how the CBA works, surely?

I don't see any problem with the clips about the neighbourhood or Rodriguez's English. The piece about the Japanese player suddenly speaking better English when he's told that the club won't pay for his translator any more is a bit off colour, and he probably shouldn't be talking out of school about contract negotiations, but they're hardly egregious offenses.
