Serious question: If today we banned every single male athlete in the U.S. from playing any sport beside soccer. How long would it take us to win a World Cup? 4 years? 8 might be generous.

@AdrianMedina_16 For the life of me, I can't figure out why they didn't continue to build his confidence while allowing him bullpen success like at the end of last year and start him in pen and give him a chance to work his way into the starting rotation

The Dodgers have always prioritized major league development for Roki Sasaki. Sending Roki to Triple-A would not provide any benefit for either side. There will most likely be a situation of a rotation shakeup with the throwing progression from Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow continuing to trend upwards. But the Dodgers see the upside of Sasaki.

@dodgerslite Maybe an unpopular opinion but I'd rather give up Tibbs or Sirota, or even one of them and an additional prospect, than Hope

This trade proposal is my 911

@AlScott1998 Little sister

We need to do better. The Padres are 15 GB on July 7th. The Dodgers should be the last thing on our mind. This is giving little brother energy.

@emmitonair Adrian Dantley

Isiah Thomas, Ben Wallace, or Cade Cunningham isn’t available: name a Detroit Pistons player past or present.

@DodgerBlue1958 Phillies are ruining baseball

Braxton Ashcraft, Jesús Luzardo and Riley O’Brien were added onto the NL roster for the All-Star Game. They replaced Jacob Misiorowski, Max Meyer and Paul Skenes. Phillies now have 6 All-Stars to break a tie with the Dodgers and Braves for most this year.

@DodgersOnSI If you can use him as part of a package to get another ace lefty that might be available

An MLB insider wonders if the Dodgers could look to trade Eric Lauer ahead of the deadline👀👀 Would you want to see LA recoup assets for Lauer? Why or why not?⬇️⬇️

Last night @TalkinBaseball_ was talkin' trash... until the @Dodgers social media team brutally put an end to it!

@joshgitt1987 @phwixx And a lot of people last year didn't believe that was the picture he was because they saw him the previous year

@phwixx Yeah well a lot of folks still aren't convinced he's completely back because of last year. I want to see him in October before I judge him. BTW, I wasn't even talking about Scott specifically. I still think they could use one more guy in the pen.

For all those who said the Dodgers don't need a reliever, I hope you have a wonderful night. Because you deserve this.

@SleeperDodgers @kileymcd @JeffPassan Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, Evan Phillips, Edwin Diaz , Will Smith, and Kiké Hernandez

Imagine if the Dodgers added ONE of these names at the deadline. 🤯 Potential “best fits” for LA, per @kileymcd and @JeffPassan: — Tarik Skubal — Luis Arraez — Aroldis Chapman — Josh Hader Which move makes the most sense for LA? 👀

@Andrew_FBB Schwarber

We have only seen a hitter like this a handful of times in MLB history.

@Aussie_Lakers Ya think?

Rob traded his only back up center with no other moves lined up. That's crazy

@ClayFragulia @DodgersOnSI Both of them might be more effective in multiple inning appearances out of the bullpen anyway

@DodgersOnSI He and Sheehan should have two starts b4 the break. Who wants it more

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts admitted a starting pitcher is likely to lose his spot in the rotation despite his strong numbers⬇️⬇️

These umpires have accepted buyouts and will retire at the end of the season: CB Bucknor (ranked 91st of 91 this season) Laz Diaz (83rd) Brian O'Nora (85th) Lance Barksdale (70th) Marvin Hudson (52nd) Tony Randazzo (No games called this season) Andy Fletcher (74th) usatoday.com/story/sports/m…

@DamienPetersNBA But why would an organization negotiate against themselves and pay more right from the start? If the player can get more he should and then gives the home team chance to decide if he's worth it to them. Makes sense actually

The Pistons situation with Jalen Duren is why i think the current CBA needs an adjustment to restricted free agency. Detroit can offer Duren five-years $287 million, while everyone else can only offer four-years $177 million. The Pistons have no urgency to force any offer over $177 million if their intention is always to match, so regardless they’re going to save themselves $110 million in the process. I am in favor of rewarding teams for development and keeping players in markets, but the gap is too big. Equally, why shouldn’t teams be eligible to pay an extra $110 million for a player’s services if they see fit. We are indirectly hurting a player who has done nothing but have an All-NBA season to put himself in this position. I think it makes sense to add certain provisions in restricted free agency when the time comes.

@ChadMoriyama Ushers wear green or light blue. Right?

Freddie's homer donked an usher on deflection.

@MikeRunner14 @LALBetter Every time I hear his name I'm contractually obligated to say Bill Duffy was the first player to ever dunk on me. (And I said first for a reason)

@LALBetter Nah. Luka and Ayton share an agent, and Duffy is involved in everything. This isn't an isolated move. To move Vando, we would have to attach at least 2 second-round picks. This is a move to free things up for another move.

The Deandre Ayton trade is complete and utter mismanagement. This is the first time I’ve ever questioned Rob Pelinka’s competence.

@ViscountXavi Apparently you were the bad luck

@FFlash70817 @joeroganhq Actually, she's right. Biden pardoned less than 100 people. Google is your friend. Use Grok if you must

@joeroganhq Only on CNN can the daily newscaster show up knowing zero facts every single day As long as she pushes their narrative

Abby Phillip: "Trump pardoned over 1,600 people. So he actually holds the record…" Lambert: "Biden pardoned more than that… it was 9,000, 10,000…"
