@NHLRumourReport Well he’s a great coach and two elite players got injured
Maybe stop blaming coach for a cup or bust mentality that is comically hard

Elliotte Friedman: Re Jared Bednar future/Avalanche: I think it's fair to wonder what could happen there - FAN Hockey Show (5/26)

@_nateschwartz @PitcherList I re wrote the article for you
“Paul Skenes had like a bad inning to start the year, and has been every bit as dominant as expected.”
English
Skenes has the smallest HR problem this year, a 0.90 HR/9 is out of place for only a guy like him.
He's given up 6 homers so far this year, but 4 of them have been on the four-seam. I looked into why an approach change is causing this negative outcome
Latest for @PitcherList ⬇️
Nick Pollack@PitcherList
Paul Skenes' 3.00 ERA is underwhelming by generational pitcher standards. Nate Schwartz (@_nateschwartz) writes about Skenes is going to be fine, but a small change can go a long way. pitcherlist.com/whats-up-with-…

@Andrew_FBB I traded pitcher Ohtani for him

I was very aggressive about advocating buying low on Ketel Marte.
Last 15 games:
.426 / 3 HR / 17 RBI
3 K : 6 BB
This was a league winning buy low if you capitalized.
English
@hunterbonair The only apology should be that he stopped at 2 hip thrusts.
This was a minimum 5 thrust opportunity.
Hopefully he learns from this and gets the next opportunity right.

Here are Abner Uribe’s full comments (through Daniel de Mondesert).
First he apologizes, and later says that Cardinals Manager Oli Marmol was signaling to hit Brewers players yesterday.

@miketgould Kyrous salary makes him semi unattractive
Maybe Howard and a first with no retention?
English
Do the Oilers have a single asset that gets them Kyrou or even Graf?
Mark 📸@TheLineBlender
Yeah. That would be a solid lineup. A++ offseason? Four mostly "buy-low" trades: Kyrou, Graf, Kesselring, Cossa. Imo, Dickinson only stays if Oilers get a Top 6 LW worth like max $9m ish. Then they should have room if they choose him as the other Top 9 shutdown C.

Well done young Uribe

@SlapshotShibe The mere fact that you think this possibility is worth a post indicates that you aren’t ready.

If Conroy turns Frost and a few other pieces into the #4 overall pick, build him a golden statue

Matt McLain’s 89 games in 2023 must be studied. Who was getting the best out of him?
English
@LovelandSportsG @RedsDaily4 Well you probably should for future decisions.
Steers and Beers is doing tremendously analytically, as is Sal the plumber.
It was an idiotic diatribe.
Great announcer that should stay out of analytics. Not his lane nor does he need to be involved to do well.
English
@RedsDaily4 Exactly. No one is saying that you should judge guys on XBA or anything like that, but if you are evaluating who might be able to turn things around or get more chances, it is absolutely useful.
English
@wyshynski @MapleLeafs Leafs fans very dumb and govern opinions on small samples and blame top players. They have victim mentality.
Top player tired of being a martyr, leaves, has nice success in 15 games, dumb fans cry as victims do.
Look in mirror, improve behaviour, young leaf fans. Yep.
English
Mitch Marner is 5 wins away from lifting the Stanley Cup and likely winning playoff MVP.
How is Toronto dealing with this?
I asked prominent voices in @MapleLeafs Nation (and a former teammate) how they're processing Mitch Marner's playoff dominance.

No way.

@Nati_Sports No no, the angels paid the contract. This was an ownership decision dum dum

Remembered Nick Krall gave him away, LITERALLY, gave him away to arguably the only other terrible GM (Perry) in MLB
Ate 90% of the cash & got a player he DFA’d 3 months into the season

Raisel Iglesias extended his streak to 27-for-27 in save opportunities, tying Aroldis Chapman for second place all-time among Cuban-born players.

@J_Swish24 Working under bones a year will do him good. No debate, young one.
English
Should give him the head job. Vogey is a good chin that’s done a helluva job in Cleveland. Proven winner as a player. No disrespect to Bones, but he’s like 87 years old. Would love to see some new blood in the NHL. The baggage claim carousel of coaches gets to be exhausting. -People’s
The CBJ Center@CBJcenter
According to Aaron Portzline, #CBJ are expected to make an announcement in the “coming days” that Trent Vogelhuber will be promoted to an assistant coach on Rick Bowness’ staff next season. Thoughts?

@McCannSportsLaw I think they should just be capped to a total payout of say $25m or whatever the number is depending on player and investment. The in all perpetuity of it has caused some hard feelings
English
Player investment contracts—where a company pays a minor leaguer a lot of money in exchange for a cut of their future earnings—are not going away through the legal system since they're enforceable contracts, even if they later seem very unfair to the player if he becomes a star.
Sportico@Sportico
In 2017, when Fernando Tatis Jr. was an 18-year-old minor leaguer—and thus, an adult who could sign an enforceable contract—he agreed to receive $2 million in exchange for 10% of his future baseball earnings over the following 25 years. Now a judge in San Diego is the latest presiding officer to side against the @Padres star in his quest not to pay Big League Advance Fund (BLA) approximately $3.74 million.

@Brickma69 Still plays defensively, can habdle the bat despite the slump. Yawn. Next.

Dansby Swanson should not be treated like an everyday player. Nico SS, Pedro 2B. Anything else is pure incompetence. Dansby SUCKS.

@jasondemers5 Young man, if you must explain 11 times your joke, then it wasn’t well communicated. Keep working at it. You can do this and I believe in you. 3-4 years from now you will possibly be a very excellent member of this site.

Is it possible for Jakub Dobes to win the Conn Smyth even if they don’t advance pass this round?

@SportsnetSpec But, he didn’t make it this far, fun boy. Very poor post from a very young, very low IQ (emotionally and intellectually) human being. Poorly done young one!

If Bouchard made the play Hutson just made…
Oh boy.

This absolutely ridiculous shit from the Giants outfielders is stupid.
The team is 22-32, has the second-worst record in the League, and is 11.5 games behind in the Division. The season is essentially over in May.
Focus on winning games, not this Banana Ball looking trash!
