True story: Back in the 1990s when I owned half of a sportscard store and was much more into collecting, I decided having autographed cards of all members of the 300-HR club (except Ruth and Gehrig, who would obviously be too expensive) would be a fun thing to have. The collection is short Jimmie Foxx, but otherwise complete as of the date that I realized I would have to include Chili Davis and Gary Gaetti and I said fuck all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that those cards would have cost you about $0.000002 - combined - to acquire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 And to put a bow on this - the Cubs have already hired Anthony Iapoce who was with the Rangers. Since the Rangers need a new skipper, all the coaches had been given permissions to seek other jobs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 And it looks like the Angels have decided to swindle someone out of a new stadium deal as they opted out of their current lease. Basically - they will play next year in Angel Stadium and then they are all WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE WILL DO?!?!?!?!

Dolfan in NYC Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I was positive @RIPPA was posting this and I was about to be out $20. Oh well. All of you fucking killjoys finally got your wish: Removal will cost $2.5 million(!). Also, the Marlins logo will be changed for 2019 according to some reports. They'll still be "Miami", but the M and the marlin itself are changing a bit. Plus, they'll be busting the old Teal uni's out at some point.
