Cleveland shoulda stayed the Indians

Hats and jerseys were better ,guardians wakk

Aren't they talking about bringing the Indians name back? I swear I saw a headline mentioning that

They should bring it back.

Maybe Chief Wahoo is an insensitive logo and that should be changed. But I don’t think there’s anything wrong with calling them the Cleveland Indians.

I don’t see nothing but a Facebook group advocating bringing Indians back

other college & pro teams still have Indian names and logos (Seminole’s, braves,blackhawks,chiefs,Illini) etc

Nasty work by the Metropolitans today, I'm not even gonna go in on that "performance"

They were breaking down alcantara on mlb network

Leiter said his chase rate dropped 10%,walk rate increased 6% and his change up and curve(or slider/curve) weren’t spinning like they used to. Like the pitches look similar so hitters aren’t fooled and he can’t locate his fastball

Basically suggesting a team should still try to acquire him(not for top prospects but near top) if they have the pitching infrastructure to fix these things. if he went to a team like the Astros dude could be an ace again

It's not a reason to excuse his performance but he is returning from Tommy John surgery.

White Sox score 8 runs

Chase Meidroth 0-5 though

There's no reason for Chase Meidroth to be on your fantasy baseball roster.
At least I hope he isn't.

Gotta say I'm shocked to see how many leagues he's owned in that I'm in. Though I'm in a few 20 team leagues. But, the curious one is that he's owned in my competitive dynasty/keeper league.

Only real + indicator I see on him is BAVG with some speed. Spot checking his log only 4 times this month without a hit.

The Metropolitan pitching lab can fix him.

He wants he a gig as a batting coach



Prime Manny was an elite hitter, was one of my favorite players growing up even though he never played on the Mets



The disrespect from this twitter poster

I'd hire him as a batting coach. He was a generational hitter, and every kid growing up in the Caribbean would love to be coached by him.

A month ago I read comments about how Cedric Mullins was back after some down years.

He OPSed .927 in March/April.
He’s OPSing .553 in May.

It's cause he's been showing flashes

A HR here, a SB there. Knocks in a couple... Just nothing consistent. And multiple multi K games.

He was never the same after Jose Ramirez punched him in the face.

Well that and when that whole debacle with Josh Donaldson.
