Re: MLB 2019
Machado opts out after 5 If he isnt dealt away by other means before then and the Padres remain mediocre at best. Anyone care to wager on this?WestwayKid wrote: ↑20 Feb 2019, 6:44pmMy thoughts exactly ^^^Boddington wrote: ↑19 Feb 2019, 2:41pmTheir farm system is stacked.

Re: MLB 2019
Which suggests that Remy's being phased out. No surprise there, tho, obviously, I hope it's more Remy wanting to take life slower than his cancer being an active issue.
Now, if we can get Eck and Spaceman in the booth at the same time, that'll be the greatest game ever called.

Re: MLB 2019
Back in the good ol' days, Steinbrenner would have put his manager on notice and fired the bullpen coach to prove he's serious after losing an exhibition game to the Red Sox. His kids don't deserve the team.
