    Who do you like more, the Marlins or the Yankees?


    Or Eli Manning?

    Yankees. If you read the original post it's more about Mattingly than the Marlins.

    While you don't want to see anyone get hurt. It's good that they threw at Acuña. Can't let player walk all over you. While it was most likely intentional. Urena doesn't exactly have good control

    First pitch of the game, yeah it was intentional. Fuck him. I hope he starts against the Braves again and the Braves pitchers hit him every time, regardless of how many pitchers they lose.

     Pitchers have no fear of repercussions in the AL.

    Mattingly read them the Riot Act on Friday. Looks like they're responding. But how long can these players keep it up?

    no. he's the first Dodger manager to win 3 straight divisions. He could have stayed in L.A. But they were going in a more analytical direction. If Jose doesn't die. They're most likely in playoff contention if they keep all those players they gave away. They overpaid for guys like Chen and Straily. Bullpen has sucked. They made bad trades. He even said to Jeter if he didn't think he was what he wanted for this rebuild that he would understand.
