Losing their shortstop was the final ending to their season and could cause them to miss the playoffs .
What are your thoughts on this?

    I'm happy to see them plummet, they were on a rampage the first half of the season but the cure for pennant fever is actually playing g the full schedule.

    The Sox are out of it so all I care about is watching the Yankees fail miserably.

    Playing a full schedule with ALL YOUR BEST PLAYERS is very important at this time of year. I have seen the Red Sox lose because of this in the past but still hold out for them as they are now at full strength, I also love where the Yankees are heading this season.

    Not a good time to have money invested in a certain Dominican shortstop's cards.

    If the allegations are true, what an absolute idiot. holy cow. If true, the man needs to be locked up. I heard there is a second girl making allegations. this one an 8th grader.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    The second one I saw was 17 which she knew what she was doing. If the 14 year old is true his career is likely over. There was an Oregon State pitcher a couple years ago that would have been a first round pick and likely a high first rounder that went undrafted for molesting his young cousin. He was playing in the Mexican leagues last I know of since even Japan said no. Oregon State let him play though so I dont feel bad about them being left out of conference realignment

    Wisconsin 2-6 against the SEC since 2007

    Why hate the Tampa team? They get more out of a tiny payroll than anyone else in baseball. The Rays will probably be moving out of Tampa in three to four years. Their attendance sucks, and they soon won’t have a stadium.

    The Yankees and the Mets have to worst teams big money can buy. I was shocked when I heard that the Mets’ payroll is higher than the Yankees. Both of them could finish in the cellar of their divisions. Both teams give new meaning to the term “goldbrick.”

    I think the orioles payroll is pretty small considering
    Rays $73 M
    Orioles $60 M
