Dombrowski didn't say much of anything today but it sounds like he won't go the Varitek route.

I'm all in on Alex Cora.

This "Price loves Ausmus" narrative has me shaking in my boots.

Mookie Betts being a professional bowler is one of my favourite things about baseball.

Saw Bradley(who has braces now) bitching to the press that they won the division last year and no body is giving them enough credit and it’s not fair. His mindset is exactly what was wrong with that team last year, he’s such an insufferable tool. I wish they had traded him.

Was that Bradley for Encarnacion rumor bullshit?

I wouldn’t be shocked if it was floated by DD but doubt it was close to happening.

Agreed, but I think that can be fixed mid-season.

Agreed, my only hope is that switching to the AL won't hurt him after knocking around NL pitching after the trade.
