Luke Epplin@lukeepplin.bsky.social · 5d agoIt's inexcusable that Tommy John isn't in the Hall of Fame, if only because no one else has the line "Did not play - Eponymous Surgical Procedure" on their Baseball Reference page.
Arte Moreno will forever be an idiot for 86ing the trade to deal Luis Rengifo to the Dodgers for Andy Pages.

MLB isn't improved by owners hunting profit only. The Dodgers, like Sheehan says, want to win and make a lot of money in the process. Those who focus on keeping costs down will not be as successful, simple as that.
Jason Fry@jasoncfry.bsky.social · 2w agoThose of you eager to serve wealthy MLB owners as volunteer Pinkertons won’t like to read this, but as usual Joe Sheehan nails the real problem:
