Premeditated Retaliation

Did the Red Sox really do their due diligence around Alex Verdugo? Police reports indicate otherwise. But he just wants to move on. Astros owner Jim Crane apologized by stating he shouldn’t be held accountable. Just wants to move on. Former Astros apologize much better than current Astros, who can’t seem to stop talking, but just want to move on.
Sorry not sorry = words of House MLB, followed by “Let’s just move on.” Did the Red Sox really do their due diligence around Alex Verdugo? Police reports indicate otherwise. But he just wants to move on. Astros owner Jim Crane apologized by stating he shouldn’t be held accountable. Just wants to move on. Former Astros apologize much better than current Astros, who can’t seem to stop talking, but just want to move on. Dusty Baker makes “premeditated retaliation” a thing.

Thank the baseball gods for boyfriends to cheer us out of our funk. Pottymouth feels the love for Oakland outfielder Stephen Piscotty, whose story shows baseball at its best. Patti finds her starting 3B in Matt Chapman, he of the sexy defense and bromance with Khris Davis. Both our NL boyfriends are the Cardinal Way, all the way. Pottymouth catches the Aloha spirit with 2B Kolten Wong, and Patti goes with another 3B Matt, with Matt “It’s Gotta Be the Salsa” Carpenter. And another t shirt goes on the wish list. Also thank you baseball gods for shirtless Mets.

Minor leaguers get a tiny pay raise, the post-season may get super-sized, and girls showcase their skills at MLB Grit.
