A's pitcher J.T. Ginn entered the bottom of the ninth with a no-hitter.
Two batters later, Zach Neto and the Angels walk it off!
Wayne Randazzo has the Angels call. ⚾️💣🎙️ #MLB

@the_goffense Pacheco is going to make us all forget about him (if he’s healthy).

@TigersJUK @BauerOutage That’s still not worse than being the one to beg for money online to visit one country then go gamble it away in another country …

Hypothetical: You’re the owner of an MLB team. I offer to take $0 salary and sign a minor league contract and go to Low A.
If the “he sucks now” crowd is right and I get lit up, you cut me, lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club.
If the “clubhouse cancer” crowd is right, you see it immediately at Low A and cut me. You lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club.
If there’s massive negative PR, which we already know there won’t be, you just cut me and move on. The story is dead in a couple days, you lose $0, and there’s no risk to the big league club.
But, assuming none of those things happen, which they obviously wouldn’t, if you like what you see, you can promote me to AA and re evaluate me there. Then AAA. Then the big leagues. If I earn it, which you’d be 100% in control of deciding. If you don’t think I’m good enough, you lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club.
You could take away my “antics”. You could take away my social media. You could ask anything of me. If I don’t comply, you cut me, lose $0, and there’s no risk to the big league club.
What logical reason is there to not do this? At worst, you cut me and there’s no risk to the big league club. At best, you get a Cy Young winner for $0 who you know can still pitch and could help the big league team if and when you see fit.

@reeber93 @EricLloyd @erikschlitt We need someone with star power on defense. Doesn’t even matter the position, we’re basically thin everywhere.

@EricLloyd @erikschlitt Which 2nd round tackle are you taking that will start ? Lol. Come on. The ones get picked mid 20s aren't even sure fire starters

I think Downs may be the top player on the Lions draft board, so if he hits No. 10, I'd expect Brad to be on the phone
Coffee Dog - Head Roaster@RoastingLabs
Hey @erikschlitt - odds makers currently have Caleb Downs as better than 50% he falls out of the top 10 How close does he get to 17 before Jeremy's nightmare is realized and Holmes trades up for him?

Sasaki, and Rushing for Skubal?
I think Rushing seems likely to be at least an average MLB player. His best spot is catcher, but he’s not getting more than 40 games there in L.A. with Will signed for 5+ seasons. DR can play first, but that loses a chunk if his defensive potential. We have Freddie through next season, and most people woukd lean toward keeping him for a few more, at an assumed cost reduction. I bet Rushing could learn left or right. Tucker is long-term, so I guess he could play left if Teo leaves after next season, but we have a price-reduced option on him.
If they can get a nice return for Rushing, as in a key piece to finish the threepeat, I could see them moving him. Surely a lot of teams woukd want him.

@jameshailer No chance. He’s never been the best player on his own team.
He took the backseat to AJ Storr, John Tonje and Nick Boyd.

Are Chicago fans trying to diss me? After beating them in 90% of the games I played against them? They win 1 playoff game in 10 years (by luck) and think they are top dogs now? What a weak fan base.

@tigers @971theticketxyt @bet365_us Platoon Colt, DH Carp, put Vierling in the outfield, and this is a perfect lineup.
