MLB Offseason: All Rise for the Judge

I never realized that was the same FTX. Soooooo, the umps union was being......contributed to by those fake money morons?

 

Blown calls are his "trademark" so it would fit.

 

Julio Rodriguez and Michael Harris are this year's Rookies of the Year!

Excellent choices and I'm not just saying that because I had them on my fantasy baseball teams and/or one of them is on the Braves.

Okay, maybe I'm a little biased.

 

Yasiel Puig involved in illegal gambling ring according to local morning news.

 

Well, he was an idiot as a ball player, no reason he'd get any smarter after.

 

Congratulations to Julio! Well earned

 

Terry Francona is your AL Manager of the Year.

Anthony Rizzo returns to the Yankees for two years, $34 million, with a $17 million club option for a third year or a $6 million buyout.

Tyler Anderson rumored to be joining the Angels for three years, $39 million.

 

And Buck Showalter in the NL.

Also the Mets are getting a neighbor: New York City FC is building a stadium where the chop shops used to be.

 

I'm going to miss leaving Shea Stadium/City Field and feel like I was going to get tetanus.

 

I think all of the chop shops have been gone for awhile now. I haven't looked over in that direction the last few times I've been to Citi, but the last time I did was like 4 or 5 years ago and there was only like one of them left. It wasn't the District 9 it used to be....

 

Justin Verlander and Sandy Alcantara are your Cy Young Award winners.

 

well deserved to Sandy. He was a stud all season long. I think the only award I disagree with is AL manager of the year. I think the Mariners guy should have won.

 

I haven't been to Citifield since we moved up to Syracuse. When we moved back to Long Island I was hopping to go for playoff run but of course that was cut real short. I went to the last game at Shea Stadium and of course the first game at Citifield. Ian was like 4 or 5 months old, my wife carried him in a baby carrier on her chest and he wore a little Mets hat. We even have a brick in front of Citifield, my wife got it for us as an anniversary present. We have a copy of it in our house. I don't remember where our actual brick is in front of the stadium, I'm gonna have to go and find it. We're are thinking about get limited season tickets. Its on going discussions with the wife. We'll probably get season tickets to the NY Liberty again, we really loved going to their games.

 

Royals owner says the team will leave Kauffman Stadium and is exploring locations for a $2 billion stadium and entertainment district near or around downtown. Lease ends in 2031 but they're hoping to move before then.

Fuck.

I LIKE Kauffman Stadium.

And it's easy to find.

Oh well, if nothing else, it would sure make things easier for the A's. They could move back to KC!

@Tom Hendricks, I'm curious what you think of this...
