Hey everyone! The Dodgers are sporting an amazing won-loss record. I have a cheapo tv plan at my house (I don't even have ESPN)and I truthfully never get to watch them play. Tell me about the Dodgers please.....and, wouldn't it be great if the also extremely successful NY Yankees and the LA Dodgers ended up facing each other in the World Series?

Mets acquire Stroman from Jays for prospects
Right-hander Marcus Stroman had a career-best 2.96 ERA this season with Toronto, which gets a pair of pitching prospects in the trade with New York.

I was just coming here to post this. A 10 game suspension for Kela is not enough.
Especially not when you compare it to Garrett’s 8.

It has been building for a long time. Until the Pirates face severe consequences, and their leadership actually wants to control them and put a stop to it, then I think it’s just going to get worse.
How many times can your teammates get thrown at before you lose it?
I think the MLB needs to crack down more, threaten entire clubs when pitchers intentionally aim at a batter. For the safety of players 1st and foremost, but also for youth baseball, show that this will not be tolerated.

They've won 7 in a row. Is it a flash in the pan or when the season is over will they finish below the 500 mark?I just checked the standings....seein' how my Phillies are doin'

Ehh, I read a report that the Reds pitchers were hitting Pirates players during a series back in April, plus people had seen Joey Votto jawing with the Pirates dugout before the brawl happened so to say the Pirates are the only ones in the wrong is a little backwards.

Phillies file lawsuit to keep Phanatic as mascot
The Phillies have filed a federal lawsuit claiming that Harrison/Erickson Inc., the firm they hired to help create the Phanatic, is trying to renege on an agreement and make the beloved mascot a "free agent."

Do you remember what article that was?
The Pirates intentionally throwing at Reds players has been an issue all season. First in April, then in May, then July. The July incident was a result of the buildup from the prior two series.

Here @Dead2009 , this might help explain a little..
I just want the MLB to crack down. Not only speaking as a Reds fan, but someone who loves baseball and hates to see batters put in a position of unnecessary risk... at any level, not just the MLB. It’s an area that needs to be unacceptable and swift punishment at all levels.

It was on ESPN and the Reds have been firing back. Both teams are at fault.

Succos are 4-21 since the All Star Break. What an embarrassment. Maybe one day Nutting will sell the team and the nightmare will be over.
