    story getting interesting today

    yankees have filed a grievance to recoup some of the $26mil ellsbury is owed this year. ellsbury used an outside, unauthorized facility in Atlanta in both 2017-18 to rehab his injuries, and it seems the yankees are alleging something that happened there was keeping him off the field.

    seeing reports/speculation he was using some kind of steroid to rehab, and he was intentionally staying out to avoid failing a test

    Fuck the astrorisks*

    They’re obviously not going to invalidate their 2017 postseason success, but I hope they get raped into irrelevancy for the foreseeable future with fines and punishments.

    Maybe then their smug ass fans can go back to not existing.

    If MLB wants to crack down to ensure this never happens again, this should be the punishment

    $10,000,000 Team Fine
    GM Suspended for 1 Year
    A.J. Hinch 1 Year suspension
    30 game suspension for all players involved that are still playing. To be staggered at random choosing by MLB so they can at least field a team during this. Suspension still applies if they are not on the team. Not sure if a fine can be issued to a player who has already retired, unless the fines can be docked from their pensions if applicable.
    Forfeit of First round picks for next 3 years
    Forfeit of Second round picks for next 3 years
    Loss of International signing pool money for next 3 years.

    I think there need to be some lifetime bans for the people orchestrating it. The last Braves GM got a lifetime ban for circumventing foreign signing rules and I'd argue that's way less heinous than this.

    The Pittsburgh Pirates completed their leadership makeover Wednesday, hiring Derek Shelton to be their new manager.

    Shelton spent the past two seasons as the Minnesota Twins' bench coach. This will be his first major league managerial job.

    Did you say you want more Padres news?! Here's 2 things!

    The Milwaukee Brewers acquired infielder Luis Urias and left-hander Eric Lauer from the San Diego Padres for outfielder Trent Grisham and right-hander Zach Davies in a swap of high-end prospects and veteran pitchers on Wednesday.

    This wasn't the only move for the Padres on Wednesday. They also reached agreement on an expected four-year deal with left-handed reliever Drew Pomeranz, pending a physical, sources confirmed.

    Urias, 22, was a consensus top-25 prospect entering the 2019 season and was outstanding at Triple-A El Paso, batting .315 with 19 home runs in 73 games. But he struggled offensively in 71 games with the Padres, batting just .223.

    Pretty stoked about that trade. Urias didn't take MLB by storm last year but he still would've been the 23rd best hitting shortstop in mlb and he's 22 years old. Given that our current SS was the worst qualifying hitter in baseball last year (Orlando Arcia) I like the upgrade.

    Grisham was useful but still would've been our 4th OF in 2020.

    Steven Vogt appears to have signed with the Diamondbacks. Haven't been able to find terms but SF Giants twitter confirmed it, and his profile pic on Twitter now has him with an Arizona cap. Happy for him as I loved him when he was on the A's, and he was a more than capable backup for Posey, so he deserves to start somewhere.

    Infielder Mike Moustakas and the Cincinnati Reds are in agreement on a four-year deal worth $64 million, league sources tell ESPN's Jeff Passan.

    Angels to remain in Anaheim through 2050 with an option to extend to 2065. A company affiliated with Angels' owner Arte Moreno will purchase the stadium and parking lot for $325 million with the city not contributing any cash towards upgrades, renovations, or redevelopment.
