MLB NEWS/RUMORS/PROSPECTS Thread

Has anyone read Houston Street's article about Kershaw? Says he has no idea why they won't let him pitch and he "feels fine". Very confused over the team's restrictions, and they make him throw as hard as he can, and then sit him down on put him on the IL. No one has come forward withe MRI results either.
The article aso cites how the team lied/ lies about others in the past, using Muncy as an example when it was pronounced he would be ready for the playoffs, and all along he had a torn ligament, and never saw the post.
Basically, a bunch of liars trying to manipulate the PR, and only succeeding to alienate players and fans.
Makes me think that guys like Treinen, Hudson and maybe May are just and merely memories at best.
Protecting a player's welfare is one thing, but lying about it only serves as detrimental to the whole spectrum.

 

This seems a little suspect. Could be a guy just trying to get some views on his article.

Feels like anything like this meant to alienate players would probably be more widely known and frowned upon by the players. I would imagine players would want to stop coming to Los Angeles if that were the case, and everyone seems to love this organization and getting the chance to play here.

If anything, seems like it could be misdirection by the organization in coordination with the players.

 

Sorry, I'm so bad with this shit. I subscribe to his website, after I read the email, I get rid of it.
It was yesterday's post, I believe. I thought it was a column in the LA Times, but I'm not sure.
Again sorry.

 

Maybe you're right. Could very well be.
But, coordinating misdirection enabled by the players sounds a bit devious in itself, and imo, a wee bit far fetched.
I can believe it about these people without any problem. Sounds like cutting your nose off to spite your face in more than a few instances.
It's kinda like, for me..."I thought Tatagglia. was the problem, when all along, it was that fucking Barzini".

 

Quote from Kershaw from today's LA Times........

We will end this with a final quote from Kershaw: “When the doctor [team physicial Neal ElAttrache] tells you something — I’m really good at arguing — but I can’t argue with that. He’s been around a long time and seen a lot of stuff. So obviously I trust his opinion. If there was ever a guy to go see, it would be him. That doesn’t mean I believe it, but I do trust him.”

 

I guess it ends it.
This guy was mentored by Dr. Fauci, though.

Wow...a lotta fentanyl being used up there.
Wonder if he had any cosmetic surgery ?

 

Actually, after rereading this, how can you trust a guy that you don't believe ? Is that even possible ?
Sounds more like Dave said it instead of CK.

 

Low expectations in Chicago.
