    Verlander is the last pitcher I'd poke fun at.  Dude is a HOF'er,  where u at Darvish?!?
    Verlander tweeted this exact same thing about him after a bad slide. All in good fun
    Ahhh, ok, so they bust each other's cohones?  That is in good fun.

    Awesome that Darvish waited almost two years to do it too.

    Originally wanted the Stros to win but now with asshat assistant GM and Gurriel they can go screw. Wouldn't mind seeing Zim and Sherzer win.
    What'd Guriel do?

    That Astors exec is being investigated now so if he did anything wrong he will be gone.
    Yeah, Yuli hasn’t done anything. You must be thinking of Osuna. I’m a lifelong fan of the Astros and won’t stop being a fan because of this exec/player. Unfortunately, these things happen on most professional teams these days. 
    I know what you mean.  The Cubs owner is a fuckin Trumptard and on top of that looks like Ted Cruz's lost twin.  I loved the Cubs well before him, will love them long after as well.

    I'm assuming JK is referring to Gurriel's slant-eye in reaction to Darvish 2 years ago.

    JV tweeted the same at Darvish early in the 2018 season.  Yu is just getting him back. All in good fun.

    You're late, lol @p@pjsteelerfan informed me of this.

    Do you guys follow this much crap on twitter and remember it or you guys just regurgitate info from it?

    Twitter seems like a bunch of re-tweets for the most part with only a handful of people offering something?

    Yeah, I sometimes I reply as I'm reading and forget to check how far ahead the thread is .  I saw an article on it earlier this morning.  I've got a pretty good memory, but not that damn good! :lol:

    something like that but trea turner did some un-PC shit, too, so it’s even.
    People must really be unaware what goes on in a locker room sometimes.  That culture is not going to change...They should be smart enough to NOT tweet about it though.

    yup.

    I heard that the guy who got fired from the Astros got his job because he was good at fantasy baseball.

    so anyone who plays in multiple leagues is qualified? Good for finally acting, guy should have been fired on the spot. Good for AJ Hinch for acting like the adult in the room on a team whose media relations staff is regarded as one of the worst.

    This is the part that is the most heinous and is going unaddressed. That press conference by Luhnow yesterday was pure garbage.

    I was skeptical on the story until more info got out and man what a shitshow.  Apparently the guy knew whom the gal was because she always tweeted abuse activism when Osuna pitched.  

    Another great nugget of info.  When asked if he apologized to her he replied "No, not yet." during the interview he did before he was fired.  SHE WAS IN THE ROOM DOING THE PRESS CONFERENCE!!!!

    Correct. It's why the "fake news" term referenced above is so important in this story. Their revisionist's history on things can't be forgotten. They didn't initially apologize, they demeaned the journalists and made it a point to say when you want to get rid of something, or whitewash legitimacy, just shout that the reporter, and said report, is/are illegitimate. It wasn't until they had completely no where to go and they were basically called out on everything did they walk some things back, and ultimately fire the over-privileged douchebag. And furthermore, it speaks to the org's real view on all this, and how they really think, by how Lunhow responded and conducted himself.
