its a ridiculous suspension.

nobody like bauer, but this is way out of line.

Bauer has ripped MLB and Manfred personally numerous times through social media. This is clearly personal on Manfred’s part regarding punishment. MLB hates the guy and is going for the jugular.

You kinda hope that guys with careers like that walk away first, but to each his own. Hell of a player.

I don't have a link cause I just saw it on Sportscenter but did anybody see the ump in the Mets game apologize to the pitcher for missing the call? It was a full count and he called seemingly reluctantly called a ball so the pitcher gave him the look and the ump proceeded to touch his chest in the "my bad" kinda way then apologized for missing it.

You could tell right after he called it a ball that he knew he messed up and shouldve called a strike but I guess he figured by that point it was too late to change it. Either way though it was nice to see an ump own up to a missed call for a change.

I like the irony of this clip in the "catch-all" thread.

There's a real "2003 Tigers" vibe to that club right now... and it's kinda sad to watch.

I like looking at baseball reference’s end of year projected records.  Over the course of their 1,000 computer simulations, the Reds aren’t projected to be the worst team in baseball.  Heck, the Pirates are 3 games below them in the division according to their guessing games.

I should find that to look at...

Relative to the league, they probably are better than the 2003 team. I do know injuries have hurt them bad, Luis Castillo has been out etc.

Yeah I was so focused on our suckiness that I didn't realize just how bad the Reds were doing over in the Senior Circuit.

Edit: sorry for the double post, don't know what happened but I dropped the ball..... just like the Reds have been doing this year.

more injuries for Correa; sounds like bad luck and Javy has already had a IL stint, but you just don't get a full season from this guy

[Tigeraholic1]

Gotta come up with a catchey name for this. Ohio already has the Cleveland Steamer, google it if your not sure what it is (NSFW).

Doesn't matter, you still have to pay him more than Lindor.
