1. nice trade for both
I love seeing teams trade proven veterans for veterans. So often you see stars being traded for a boatload of prospects. We need more fantasy baseball type trades.

Nice to see Napoli go to a team where he's assured a starting job instead of seeing him having to share time with Morales.

My Jays will be happy to get out from under that.

He would seem to be a natural for this forum.

I mean that in the best way possible, of course.

7. Too much football in here...
I pop in once in a while when there's interesting baseball news. Not so much day-to-day scores and performance stuff, but trades, contracts etc.

:hi:

9. I've got the fucking Leafs...
we haven't had real hockey in Toronto for 43 years.

I don't even have kids hockey to follow. My kids are speed skaters
