Won't argue with you there. Admire the loyalty.

I seem to favor African American OF's. Kemp, Upton Bros, J-Hey Kid, Jennings, etc.
Adam Jones, Cutch, Austin Jackson, and others I'm right there with ya. I always find myself rooting for them harder, even bums like Adron Chambers :lol:

Kyle just got the sweetest letter in the mail from the little boy who got hit by his bat in Houston. pic.twitter.com/iqzShRC8I8

My name is Lyle Raymond, Your bat landed on me. I am OK. Thanks for giving me the thumbs up when you were on first base. I like the Astros but will cheer you on too. I gave back your bat because you had a big hitting streak with that bat. I hope you have more with that bat.

Your fan,

Lyle

who isn't a Kyle Seager fan?
 
I hope ARod comes back today and hits a 500 foot bomb his first at bat.
But with Arods luck he'll go 0-4 with 4 k's :lol:
 
I really am rooting for A-Rod to come back and just go on an absolute tear. However, with the way he couldn't catch up to a decent fastball makes that very unlikely to happen lol we'll see
 
^ yeah, that was shocking. I don't know if that was related to his hip being torn or what but damn.
 
Out of all those names being released, none of these players are any good. All this useless commotion over nothing. Selig is a clown.
 
The Full List Of Suspended Biogenesis Clients
Deadspin.com

As we all sit and wait for MLB's official announcement on Alex Rodriguez, the players who have accepted suspensions for their roles in the Biogenesis scandal have begun to leak, including the three names that hadn't yet been leaked.

Those unexpected players, as reported by Yahoo's Jeff Passan, are the Mets' Jordany Valdespin, the Phillies' Antonio Bastardo, and the Astros' Sergio Escalona.

Fox Sports's Ken Rosenthal reports that those three, as well as previously mentioned players Nelson Cruz, Everth Cabrera, and Jhonny Peralta will be accepting 50-game suspensions, the same as a failed test under the Joint Drug Agreement.

Additional players facing punishment include Jesus Montero, Francisco Cervelli, and minor leaguers Cesar Puello, Fautino De Los Santos, Fernando Martinez, and Jordan Norberto.

Bartolo Colon, Melky Cabrera, and Yasmani Grandal will not face further punishment, as they had already served 50-game suspensions for failing drug tests.

Washington's Gio Gonzalez and Baltimore's Danny Valencia, despite being mentioned in early Biogenesis reports, have been cleared of wrongdoing by MLB's investigation.

The announcements on the suspension lengths of the other players, including Alex Rodriguez, are still forthcoming.
 
Listening to sports talk radio on the way to work today.  The host said "Alex Rodriguez is the most hated player in Major League history."

Agree or disagree?
 
Agree, at least from what I've seen. Though this latest incident has made him a little more sympathetic
 
I'm still taking Bonds as most hated ever. He did not play in today's social media however.
