The stupid comments on international players are probably not the things that will have the longest ramifications for MLB that Mather talked about. Rather, it will be his admission to manipulating service time.

What everyone knows is occurring in just about every organization.

Do you have a proposed fix?

Goodbye, JBJ - I think our management screwed up in letting you get away, but I wish you all the best and will watch for your highlight reel plays.

Excellent spot for Jackie


Too bad Mets already had their fill of LHH outfielders.

So..uh...will Aaron Boone be able to keep...uh...pace with the Yankees this year?

Seriously, good luck to Bob's son.

Also, RIP. Joe Altobelli.

And what's the Story with Trevor Story? Will he end up a Marlin?

fify.

Though not just today's players. Ever since they gained the right to make their own decisions regarding where they play. They may gussie it up on the telling, and certainly some times there are other factors involved, but generally follow the money. I have, by the way, no problem with this. Except for Jim Thome. Lying bastard.

I would have guessed Harper for the last. Maybe Mantle, Kaline, and Tony C?
