I thought the Dodgers were smarter than this.

I can no longer make fun of the Mets.  Or Yankees.  


So when Ohtani inevitably needs his 5th Tommy John surgery and can't hit lefties for shit, it's going to be pretty lame.

Joe Mauer might make it onto the HoF ballot, but the only way he gets into Cooperstown is if he buys a ticket.

I would bet he gets in
Made it on his first ballot

I read the writers wrong. 

I'm having a hard time reconciling his killer performances while making the league minimum with 8 years of bilateral leg weakness after signing his deal.

I don't blame him for getting as much money as he could from the Pohlads. The winter he was up for free agency was the winter before Target Field opened. As such, he had the Pohlads over a barrel at the negotiating table. If he would have gotten away that winter the fanbase would have been in open rebellion moving into the new ballpark.

Cy young sniffs at that.  Cy Young had 238 complete games in which he didn't earn a Win, out of his total 749 complete games.

I still trust that lineup over 162 games.  Granted if Texas actually gets a fullish, healthysh season out of Scherzer and deGrom, that would change things.  But I'll believe that when I see it
