Mike Leake to DL. You fleeced us reds!

Unwritten rules!
Pretty sure that's the first time he's been on the DL in his career. At least it's just a hammy pull and not elbow issues

what are the best metrics to evaluate a players defense?
For Bourn AND Swisher.
...WHY WOULD YOU WANT CHRIS JOHNSON?!
Is this a joke?
IS THIS REAL LIFE?!
I think the Indians GM hit the bottle too early.
i don't mind this trade. gets money off the books for 2017. and 10 mil coming back to the braves and I assume the braves are not going to let the options for Bourn and Swisher Vest.

I haven't seen Wrigley Field for awhile. I really dig the way their jumbotron looks. Manages to keep the same old school aesthetic of the rest of the stadium.

That fan who interfered with the ball at last night's Jays game is an asshole.
Chris Johnson had said that he likes to put mustard on his hot dogs instead of ketchup, so Terry Pendleton rightfully confronted his ass about it.
did they do magic?

Man, I can't wait for the Blue Jays and Yankees series to start.
I sincerely hope it'll go the way of the good guys, though, because if 'we' lose the series it'll put doubt into everything.

Is it too late for Kyle Schwarber to be rookie of the year?
Former Cub/Ranger Kyuji Fujikawa trying to rehabilitate his career playing for the Independent league in Japan.
Ejected in his first start for throwing a dangerous pitch at the first batter of the game. Rough.
The catcher's WTF face is priceless.
you monster

Ketchup is the only non-gross condiment, but even it isn't that good. I can't even look at relish or mustard without my stomach turning.
did the glove went with it?

Where the fuck is my mustard back up?!?!?!
Oh it's August? No wonder why we can't win a fucking game.
This is great - I got Cole v Kershaw on one screen and the Koshien debut of the next Hideki Matsui (maybe) on another.
Edit: wait, good christ, I'm using the new MLBTV player for the first time and there are ads
I worship the Ketchup/Mustard combo deity.

Hopefully Jays can chase this pitcher and wear out the bullpen.
