Expect the White Sox to make a move for Joey Gallo! It going to either involve Burger or Vaughn. As of the 2022 season goes for luxury tax the White Sox have a team option for Adam Eaton for next year meanwhile Joey Gallo is going on his last year of arbitration.
Ya'll a bunch of salty crybabies
Looks like the Asterisks dusted off the old trash cans. Once a cheater, always a cheater…….
coldgoldenfalstaff
Ooh how long were you saving that up?
Can’t handle that they’re good.
Ya'll a bunch of salty crybabies
It’s funny because it’s true……

I’m torn between pointing out how dumb this comment is, considering that if anyone is under a microscope for cheating in today’s game, it’s the Astros and not without reason. I mean…hey…we did it. But it should be fairly obvious that we’re good. Anyway, torn between that and basically saying kiss the ring because it felt really good to win it and we enjoyed the parade. So I’ll just say both.
Ya'll a bunch of salty crybabies
I wouldn’t kiss that tainted *ring* if my life depended on it. Should have given out trash can lids with asterisks on it, rather than fake rings.

I take it you won’t be coming to Eff the Haters Night at MMP anytime soon right? We’re actually kind of having something like that when we host the Yankees in July. Handing out 2019 ALCS championship rings and I’m sure we’ll be seeing that classic Chapman smile on the Jumbotron. Amazing how baseball fans hate someone who didn’t even really participate in the scandal all that much, more than they do a domestic abuser like Chappy, but I digress. It’ll be a fun night at Minute Maid Park. I can look up which night it is if you’d like.
Ya'll a bunch of salty crybabies
When did I ever hate on Chapman? I’ll wait here for your answer. He wasn’t proven to be a cheater like most of them. Have fun on Asterisks night……..Send pics!
PutPeteinthehall
I hate on him. Threw 100 at a players head last year on purpose. Got a whole three games suspension. That’s not how baseball is played. Sure the player got even in the playoffs and got a knock against him but that’s hardly getting even. He should have thrown his bat at him. Chapman is a POS. Probably gets a ring on another team this October and signs with the Yankees this winter again. I guess it’s easy to try to ruin someone’s life when you know you don’t have to stand in the box yourself. Should have been given the rest of the season off last year. Hopefully it’s considered of he does it again.
Ww0907
I guess my comment went over your head. Many baseball fans hate Altuve-who didn’t really participate in cheating and distanced himself from it-more than they hate Aroldis Chapman who beat up his girlfriend (an actual crime) and threw 100 at a guy’s head like RJ said.

Bro the Phillies should trade Wheeler. They could replenish that farm.
13Morgs13
Yep trading Wheeler makes so much sense. He is 31, and this team isn’t going to be in the next 2yrs. I have been saying it for weeks. I haven’t seen Harper smile all year. I think he will seek a move as early as this off season
DarkSide830
Harper moved his family here. he isnt requesting a trade.
MetsFan22
I think you could get some nice prospects. The guy is elite.
Ducky Buckin Fent
Would love seeing Wheeler on the Yanks, serious.
But I think the Phillies’ll be buyers at the deadline. Not sellers. They’re only 5 back. Still in the thick of it & they’ve lots of talent on their roster.
Fever Pitch Guy
Agreed, every team except the Marlins can win the NL East – easily the weakest division in MLB.
Ducky Buckin Fent
Which surprises me as I thought it’d be one of the best & most competitive divisions.
Yet another time I’ve been wrong about baseball. Too many to count at this point, sadly enough.
Ww0907
If the Yankees are hell bent on staying under the tax, I can’t see it happening though. It’s not the Cole signing that got them, it’s the Stanton trade and signing Britton for 14 million. Side note: judge is a FA after next year. You signing him or letting him walk?
jimthegoat
Taking Mayer with the #1 overall pick wouldn’t be stupid because he’s a HS shortstop. It would be stupid because when you have the #1 overall pick you need to always take the BPA, or whoever you think is the BPA. If they don’t genuinely believe that Mayer is the BPA then they shouldn’t take him.
amk1920
If the O’s took Bobby Witt jr over Adley (concensus best available) no one would have thought it was a bad move.
jimthegoat
I would have
DarkSide830
im not quite sure about that
SoCalADRL
Agreed. Can’t say I know enough about any of these high school shortstops but Leiter has been dominant and from I’ve read Jobe could be better.
SoCalADRL
Don’t understand the annoyance with Jo Adell trade proposals. The angels are stacked with offense and clearly in desperate need of young pitching.
DarkSide830
because you’re selling low on a potential generational talent
jimthegoat
I agree. As it stands, Jo Adell is probably blocked in Anaheim and they need more pitching if they wanna get Mikey his ring.
BobGibsonFan
Adel is a generational talent that’s blocked? LOL
Deleted_User
LOL
vtadave
Dude, the Angels are rolling out Juan Lagares, Taylor Ward, and Phil Gosselin in the outfield. Pretty sure Adell isn’t blocked.
Ya'll a bunch of salty crybabies
Just saw that Jill Biden will be visiting the Astros “vaccination” day. Cheaters visiting cheaters……makes sense.
PutPeteinthehall
Angels aren’t winning anything with this team and manager. Takes more than what they have to win. As the commenter above mentioned the current outfield is maybe not even replacement level. Neither is Maddon. Good luck.
