    There’s no such thing as locking up every single good player. Having a ton of good players is a testament to your organization but a team can’t keep them all in the long term. It doesn’t have anything to do about loyalty but it’s the reality of the business of the game

    I think the NBA suffers the most from this which is why it has fallen to my #3 favorite sport

    There has to be a middle ground though. I think Minor League Players should be making more.

    M. Emmet Walsh for the full win

    How can you open a movie much better than that?

    Good call on Dusty for taking no chances with Yordan and pulling him out. Sounded scary.

    This Pornstache guy is looking tough. There's some great pitching in the NL East between Atlanta and the Mets.

    Kid looks good. Can Meyers get a hit off 99/100 tonight? We know 56mph was a bit much

    And the Braves are going to let him walk this offseason. They've spent a ton of money already for the future and he wants way more than he's worth.

    He says he wants to stay home in GA, but it won't be reciprocal unless he takes a sweetheart hometown deal.
