Ill never forget tony clark 2004 alcs
Every at bat walking away looking at the replays on the big screen after 1000 strike outs every time

Very good player. Once he got on the wrong side of 30, bat speed got a bit slow. With his long arms he would get busted up inside. Then those low and away pitches had him flailing.
Not that he struck out a lot, but he just had a rough go of it in terms of balance and timing.

What happened to Tony Clark is what I fear could someday happen to Aaron Judge.

Thats that steinbrenner sign every guy who hit home runs era. An accumulation of nothing from games 5 to 7. Mariano taking the fall

They're gonna get all set...and then COVID is gonna explode in Arizona, Texas and Florida and fukk it all up anyway.

This, and the NBA, is destined to fail. It sucks, but our country's leadership failed and continues to fail us.

As messed up as it is, I’m convinced that if they went with plan A (everyone at their spring training sites,) this season woulda been shut down already

When the Yankees don’t give Judge the bag, that’s gonna infuriate the fanbase, but it’s the right move. Yankees just need to ride this wave til he hits free agency.


By the time he’s done, Dominguez will be ready

Union saying there isn’t a framework of a new deal in place and 60 games is not enough

Anyone read Jayson Stark‘s article in the Atlantic? He basically states that the old agreement ends in December of 2021 and there’s almost guaranteed to be a work stoppage in 2022. And it’s gonna probably lead to 10+ teams filing for bankruptcy and not inconceivable that the entire MLB files for Bankruptcy voiding every single contract.

Ownership's greed.
Even the smallest market teams are profitable.

Don't believe that these owners are really out here struggling. There is a reason professional sports teams rarely come up for sale. Sports is a great business. They have anti-trust protection, television deals and use public funds to build their stadiums.

If any team could conceivably be managed SO poorly that they're deep in the red, they deserve everything bad that comes to them.

But contracts are contracts. So those players need to get on their Goodfellas shyt. Fuuck you. Pay me.
