RIPPA Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Just for the record - the Pirates and Andrew McCutchen officially hate each other now Quote For most of his eight seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates, Andrew McCutchen thought he'd be the one to decide if he needed to move out of center field. But a few weeks ago, when the time arrived to make that move, he learned something shocking: He didn't have a vote. When the Pirates abruptly informed him last month that he was about to shift over to right field this season, "it wasn't an 'ask,'" McCutchen said Friday morning, on the first day of what could be his last spring training as a Pirate. "It was more of a 'say.' It was, 'I have to move there.'" And that was difficult to accept, the longtime face of the Pirates admitted Friday -- for many reasons.

Yep. Barring the TV bubble finally popping soon - IF the Yankees were on the market and the stadium and network rights were in the deal, I would imagine the Steinbrenner family would laugh at $10 B as the starting price. You're probably looking around $25 B for those three franchises and maybe the Celtics, Red Sox, Cubs and Dodgers (if the Dodgers ever get their TV issues straightened out). I want to throw the Knicks in there but I'm pretty sure Dolan has devalued the franchise too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Brandon Barnes and Ichiro~! collided in the outfield while doing fly ball drills. Barnes was fine but Ichiro is out for about a week. Amazingly, this is the first time(!) in his 16 year career that Ichiro required training room treatment. Afterwards, the rest of the team pranked Barnes by cleaning out his locker and taping a hand-written note from Ichiro telling him he'd been cut and wishing him good luck in Korea. Ichiro is savage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
