Joe Lucia Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Braves are a game back of the Marlins for second, and only half a game clear of the Nationals for fourth in the NL East... Everything's falling back into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yikes. The Brewers have just FE'd Ron Roenicke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yikes. The Brewers have just FE'd Ron Roenicke. The Brewers fire sale will be starting soon. I could absolutely see Matt Garza being dealt to Boston to add another #3 or 4 starter to their rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillThompson Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Does Aramis Ramirez have a no-trade? If not he will provide a nice bat to a contending team in need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked it up and was surprised to see he doesn't have 5/10 status with Milwaukee. It feels like he's been with them longer, but his first season with them was 2012. He's already announced this is probably his last season, so I gotta think he'd want to go out with a chance to win a championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 aww... you clearly don't read Hardball Talk And for the record - any team would be doing this if they were in the same position I am not saying it's right just a reminder as everyone is all EVIL EMPIRE~!

Dolfan in NYC Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Good lord, I just read the details. Whoo boy, are the Yankees going to lose this one and look mighty stupid for even trying to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Jays hitting coach Brook Jacoby suspended 14 games for "conduct toward umpiring crew" It’s unclear what Jacoby did specifically, but Jeff Blair of Sportsnet.ca recently reported that Toronto’s coaching staff and Bill Miller’s umpiring crew were yelling at each other after a game last Wednesday. Apparently things got so heated that there has been a change of policy at Fenway Park as a result where visiting teams will be required to wait until the umpires come off the field before going into the dugout walkway after a game. Both use the same hallway at the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 The Cardinals cannot be killed. The Cubs were killing the ball in the first inning and the Cardinals answered with a Grand Slam. The Cubs would put up more runs and the Cardinals kept answering, taking the lead in the 7th inning. Final score was 10-9. I have an awful feeling that come October, you can look back to this game to see just how unstoppable the Cards can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an awful feeling that come October, you can look back to this game to see just how unstoppable the Cards can be. Personally speaking, I think it's a sign that they are using all there magic early. I think most are looking at the game from an odd angle. Sure, it's a lousy loss, but in years past the Cubs wouldn't have put up those runs let alone competed the way they did. This is a still a team in the finishing run of a rebuild, and I had them pegged as at best a Wild Card team this year. They've shown that they can possibly be better than that. The starting pitching is there, the offense is there, the defense is there in some areas and average in others. The only real weakness on the team right now is the bullpen, and with Grimm close to coming back I think that will be somewhat shored up soon. However, we've reached a stage where the team can have a glaring weakness and still compete, that's a lot of progress that people are ignoring by taking a micro view of a macro situation.

Just square off and settle it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
