The reports I saw was that he had grown to big to play LB and got shuffled out of the mix at DL. 

Not his best highlight by far. But still pretty awesome. 

Not sure....But I definitely have a typo in the title of the thread. Could a Mod change the title from Mi'Carlo to Mi'Cario?.....We can throw in an "allegedly", if needed, as well.  

 Not real big news but.....

This game is the only reason I kept my PS3. 

 CKE is also managing the red squad 

I missed this during the season. Great job, DV

Hard to justify splitting the reps 3 ways when one of the guys isn't taking care of business off the field.    

very hard to justify indeed. 

source war, 

TDS will tell what they know soon. Will have to wait for someone else to report what Joey heard so he can retweet it.

I doubt it would be true academic/GPA issues because that usually gets you suspended for a semester/until the GPA is back where it needs to be.  This sounds to me like it was more likely violation of a team academic rule rather than eligibility related issue.  I think it would be more  like violating a team rule for class and/or study hall attendance.   

Yeah I posted earlier in the thread that it felt like a skipping summer class situation. But even still, if true, don’t you want your QB to have that first one in and last one out type of dedication to their craft? School is part of that craft. Not saying the BK isn’t a good QB or couldn’t be a great a QB. Just saying, it’s a little concerning if during your most important summer ever, you decide to sleep in or take a trip to the beach instead of class. 

S/O to jk with a use of a double negative. 

I like Joey’s double negative on his tweet “ not saying there weren’t issues”. 

Side note, glad it’s cleared up but I would still be concerened with my starting QB having academic issues. Even though I believe it was going to be B.B. regardless. 

Feels like a skipping summer class situation. 

Thats one way to narrow down the QB battle

The Cleveland Indians owe part of their 7-4 defeat to the Cincinnati RedsTuesday to a miscommunication between manager Terry Francona and pitching coach Carl Willis.

According to The Athletic's Zack Meisel, Francona intended to bring Oliver Perez into the game in the ninth inning, only for Willis to mistakenly call Dan Otero down from the bullpen:

"The New York Yankees are hunting for an ace who can help them win their 28th World Series championship. Per numerous reports, they've stalked just about every big name in the wild.

Then there's the not-so-big-name ace who's also just the guy the Yankees need: Blake Snell."

The article says that it would take a Chris Sale like package to make it happen. What would you take in order to ship of a talent like Blake Snell. I say lets start with Justice Sheffield and Miguel Andujar and talk from there. It would probably take Clint Frazier and maybe one more lower prospect as well. 

12 minutes ago, Triple B said:

Hopefully one, or more, of the pitchers back out. It's a travesty it didn't work out for Snell to be there.

It really is. I don't like that no pitchers are on the ballot for the final vote but since Verlander has already been replaced by Bauer we gotta hope the Sale will want the break going into his seventh selection. The rest are still new to the experience and will probably want to soak it up.
