hammerva Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) So apparently the Nationals not only wants to piss off their own fans but the ENTIRE NATIONAL LEAGUE Seriously both of them?

RIPPA Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I am deeply amused that it took trading Turner for Nats fans to FINALLY realize their owners were cheap bastards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Here's what you're getting @RIPPA https://www.instagram.com/tv/CR7xY2BjTl9/?utm_medium=copy_link I feel very, very overwhelmed right now. In my 40 years of being a Cubs fan, he's probably the greatest Cub and I hope he plays extremely well for the Yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 To be fair - at least with Martin He is theoretically blocked by Bo Bichette at SS and the Jays have like 42 guys in the OF Now beyond Springer, will any of those OF be there when Martin is ready, that is a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the introduction of that thing however many years ago, and the reduction in games between the two teams, it seems like no one really gives a shit about players going from one team to the next.

I don't recall Sandberg doing as much community outreach and charity work as Rizzo. Plus, while Sandberg softened in his old age and took the time to sign a bunch of autographs while managing minor league ball (and you can even mail him stuff directly and he'll sign it and mail it back to you provided you include a check to cover shipping costs), he wasn't the most outgoing Cub when he was actively playing. Rizzo was practically the John Cena of the team, giving himself to everything and everyone. Hard to not appreciate that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
