    Was the agent in cahoots with the Dodgers? Why would he do this (if this is true)? Was he thinking of the increase in marketing/commercial opportunities that comes with playing in Los Angeles? Still, that’s up to Freeman to decide. How ironic that he ended up not being a free man who was allowed to make his own decisions. Right?

    Comedy and Tragedy:

    Comedy: Kershaw pitches 7 scoreless against the Padres, exits the game ahead 1-0. Craig Kimbrel, who I’m now certain used all his luck in the 2018 ALCS, comes in and instantly blows the lead, gives up two runs, only for his replacement to keep dumping gasoline on the fire and give up two more.
    Padres win 4-1

    Tragedy: The exact same thing happened to Charlie Morton today, with fellow 2017 legend Colin McHugh the culprit.

    The Angels sure got a nice boost after they fired their manager.

    Maddon gone after the Angels collapse
    Montoyo gone after the Jays get mired in mediocrity during the start of their championship window
    When does La Russa get fired after running the White Sox into the ground?

    The owner loves him, so I hope he stays there forever.

    While La Russa isn't a good manager, he's not the reason they went from 4 good starters to 1.
