His power comes in spurts. He's above average in the field. I'd like to have him 6th in a lineup like the Royals. The Reds have shown they can be taken to the woodshed on the trade market.
Louis van Gaal and his entire Dutch coaching staff was shit-canned Monday. LVG will get $7.5M for being released from his contract early and $600K in bonuses for winning the FA Cup. Utd averaged 1.29 goals per game this season, their lowest figure since 1989-90.
Jose Mourinho and his agent...
Unlike his predecessors, Vogel has playoff credentials as a coach and actually wants to be in Orlando. Jacque and Skiles seemingly just wanted a foot in the door. Vuc, Oladipo, Payton, Mario, Gordon... that's a pretty solid young core. I would say they need to re-sign Fournier and lure a marquee...
We won't see another Triple Crown winner in 2016 but this race is now must-watch.
We've seen a pretty amazing rivalry play out between Derby winner, Nyquist and Preakness winner, Exaggerator. Nyquist isn't yet confirmed but I can't imagine the race without him. The Preakness was Nyquist's...
Both changes are long overdue. Umpires have slowly dragged the zone lower and wider over the years. The Intentional Walk also makes too much sense. Just wastes time. I don't see why MLB's playing rule committee wouldn't agree to make the changes.
I'm bandwagoning the O's for the rest of the year. A team that has no pitching, a few holes in the lineup, but still finds ways to win. Buck has still got it.
Regardless of current standings, I'd go NL Central. The Cardinals are off to an uncharacteristically bad start but it seems like they're in the NLCS every year. The Cubs and Pirates are playoff teams, without a doubt. Cincinnati and Milwaukee are retooling but neither is all that far removed...

We all saw this coming. They are in a rebuild but shouldn't have the worst record in baseball. Brian Snitker will move up from his Triple-A Gwinnett managerial position to serve as interim Braves manager.
No they aren't. Minnesota won the division last season despite their top 3 defenders (Barr, Linval, Harrison) missing a lot of games. Green Bay loses Raji.
