Looking forward to hearing Dodger fans boo Springer and Betts for cheating their way to a WS title.

Oh, wait......their indignation is far exceeded by their hypocrisy

The fix is in.
Not a strike, and blue waited way too long to make the call.

Everyone in the park but the Blue in the Bucket knew it was a ball. Fans of the Game deserve better than this.

Not liking this news at all. Hope we're not cleaning house only to find out that the manager was the actual problem.

Ohtani must have laid down a ghost bet for his buddy Blue.

That is just brutal.

Did they try to keep him? Seems like the Pirates are a career dead end given their owner is a cheapskate type who won't spend on players and actively tries to tank his team. He seems like the type who would hang used paper towels up to dry so he could reuse them.

Cheaper to over pay one quality coach to get the most out of the staff's talent than bring in or keep high end talent?

Isn't Strom the pitching coach in Pittsburg?

How did Miller and Murphy divide their responsibilities?

The point is the owner doesn't want to win. You can't build out a pitching staff entirely based on scrap heap guys.

Does this mean Skenes is about to blow out his elbow?

There has to be more to the story. If Murphy is that big of a loss, why weren't any of the high profile clubs seeking his services? Why Pittsburgh? Is he just trying to get closer to home?

You are correct. The Pirates owner doesn't want to win.

Man, I hate this for George. What a huge loss for the Jays if he is unable to go the rest of the World Series.

I agree that it is not a priority but kinda sorta keeping the team in some sort of contention as cheaply as possible has to help the bottom line at least a little.

Special kind of stupid to even pitch to Ohtani right now, much less throw him a pitch like that.

Unreal. Cannot believe you give that guy something to hit. Unbelievable.

That was a great play. I understand trying to get to 3rd there. Took a perfect throw. Unfortunately for them, it was a perfect throw.
