Cubs released Shane Victorino from his minor league deal. He's not ready to retire yet tho.
James Loney's reps are also planning to contact the Mets about a potential trade. Loney is hitting .333 with a couple dingers and 23 RBI's at Triple-A El Paso.
Cody will never be more than a mid-card guy in WWE but he'd beast on the Indy circuit. I think it's shitty WWE is putting the screws to him on his contract but hey, Cody should've gone quietly. Or at least hold off on talking shit until you know the contract has been put into the shredder. Live...
Exactly... and people don't know the facts. Junior Seau blows his brains out, come to find out he had CTE, and thousands of parents will deter their kids from playing tackle football because of it.
I like this angle a lot. I like how they are talking about the move from Japan and using it for leverage, instead of acting as if it didn't happen. I was thinking last night.... imagine the career, had AJ came to WWE 10 years ago. I could imagine him as that lengthy IC champ who finally gets...
Someday baseball will maximize technological advances to phase out subjective calls. I'm all about controversy being good for the sport but it seems umpires' interpretations of the strike zone is getting more and more skewed over the years. I coached a 16U game last night and three times I had...
It won't in the current generation but definitely will down the line. I know a lot of people that aren't allowing their kids to play football because of the head trauma concerns. I think 20 years from now will show a huge decline in the number of kids playing football at the youth levels...
More reason to despise the NFL. I'm the first to admit, "No shit, football players put themselves at risk for brain trauma", but the NFL's repeated attempts to bury facts is repulsive. Very similar to the Tobacco industry trying to bury health facts related to cigarettes back in the day.
What was thought to be a flexor strain turned out to be much worse. Smith has only appeared in the three games with the Sox this season. He was acquired from Seattle during the offseason. Boston sent Jonathan Aro and Wade Miley to the Mariners for Smith and Roenis Elias.
Speeding up the game piece comes with change to Intentional Walks. I do think raising the zone will make the game more entertaining over time. Raising the zone obviously forces pitchers to put more balls up. We'll see more hitters rake.
Nyquist came down with the flu and won't be moved from Baltimore until his body temp comes down.
UPDATE: Nyquist is officially out of the Belmont due to a high white blood cell count. That sucks!
