Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 13, 2018 Wow, they overturned a play at second? I hate the phantom DP turn, but I thought that they were going to avoid doing those types of replays... Karma is a ######... It is silly, but it is the rule currently. Until they change it, teams are going to leverage it. I was actually surprised at how long it took to review because the camera angles were good in showing that he did not have the bag with the ball. How about the dropped foul pop up during Mookie's at bat? Happ gets out of that inning with 1 run allowed if Smoak catches that Eck said "it's time to party" at least 3 times during that at bat and then twice after the home run I was thinking the same thing when Smoak dropped it. That was a tough play, but probably should be made by a big-leaguer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Honcho 4,007 Posted July 18, 2018 Brewers reliever Josh Hader remorseful for offensive tweets WASHINGTON -- Josh Hader's All-Star experience went from bad to worse. After a bumpy outing in his first All-Star appearance, the Milwaukee Brewers reliever suddenly found himself caught up in a Twitter firestorm. Late during Tuesday night's All-Star Game, some racist and anti-gay tweets that Hader sent when he was a teenager surfaced. After the game, Hader apologized for his actions. "You know, it was something that happened when I was 17 years old," he said. "As a child, I was immature, and I obviously said some things that were inexcusable. That doesn't reflect on who I am as a person today, and that's just what it is." Hader said that his old messages do not reflect his current beliefs. "Obviously, when you're a kid, you just tweet what's on your mind, and you know, that's what's on," he said Screen grab of some of the tweets. Not much to say about it, young and dumb just doesn't explain away everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted July 18, 2018 My first advice as an agent when a kid is about to get drafted/get famous would be to scrub their social media accounts.

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted July 20, 2018 "Shohei Ohtani (elbow) has been cleared to begin a "throwing progression." Ohtani was evaluated by Dr. Steve Yoon, who gave him the go-ahead to resume throwing. This comes six weeks after Ohtani received a platelet rich plasma injection to combat a UCL sprain in his right elbow. Ohtani appears to be ahead of schedule as it took teammate Garrett Richards 13 weeks to resume throwing following a similar procedure in 2016. It remains to be seen whether 23-year-old will be able to pitch again this season, but he seems to finally be trending in the right direction. In the meantime, Ohtani will continue to see at-bats as the Angels' DH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
