    And you just don't want to tell the Cub fans that if they reach three or four World Series in a row, soon the fan reaction will be "You again?"

    I have a feeling he'll get paid. I don't think the MLBPA will allow the suspension without pay to stand.

    Red Sox fans have always been like that. There's just more of them now that they aren't perennial losers.

    The CBA does have a provision prohibiting racist, sexist, etc social media stuff. From the Tweets I read he may have an argument nothing he said was explicitly racist

    Braves have lost 91 games and counting, but they've had three six-game winning streaks. That's gotta be a record, I would think.

    Clevenger was also One of the guys the Orioles picked up when they shipped Strop and Arrieta to the Cubs.

    That's Six-Plus-Innings Jake to you, buster.

    Arrieta threw seven shutout innings to drop his ERA to 2.85 and raise his innings pitched total to 192 1/3, 13th in the major leagues. And 10 of the pitchers ahead of him have at least one more start. He raised his average innings per start to 6.4. As usual, Dickie's trolling flies in the face of the facts.

    So, a contender could use a guy like Melancon, huh?
