Damn.

I'm laughing and I don't know why.

played in 130 the year before, misses all of this season, and i guess some ~30 games to start next season

with him being suspended is he allowed to go to the spring training?

He's the Jamie Tartt of MLB.

I don't know about spring training but he has to sit out the playoffs if they make it and that counts toward the 80 games.

Not that it's working out like the Padres want, but he doesn't get paid while suspended, right? Tatis just loses that portion of the contract money?

no idea, one would hope not, but even if not, he was getting paid for recovering for an off-season injury that wasn't incurred doing something baseball related after a season in which he played less than 80% of their games.

He does not get paid. Exact numbers in second to last paragraph.

Padres' Tatis banned 80 games for PED violation

Fernando Tatis Jr. tested positive for Clostebol, a performance-enhancing substance, and will miss the remainder of the season.

The last time I even heard of ringworm was about 55 years ago when I was in kindergarten and my mother was trying to convince our doctor that I had it. He pretty much laughed her out of his office.

The Kay Rod cast on ESPN has been awesome. Paul Simon played a few tunes. Great interview tib Jeter. A-Rod has been very transparent about his shortcomings as an overall human. Really enjoyed it.

Oh...and I was at Citi Field again today. That place is absolutely special when the Mets are winning. Somehow in 14 years they've created an atmosphere that feels 100.

@The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog I don't understand the timing. 8 weeks to go. Weird. Must be more to it.

 

[Ron Swanson]

@The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog I don't understand the timing. 8 weeks to go. Weird. Must be more to it.

It was in his contract that if he got more than 22.5 games behind the division leader, he would be fired.

 

[BrewingFrog]

Bobby V is available!

I don't think it's weird at all. Teams start making moves about this time. You'll see a few other guys fired in the next 2-3 weeks.

Think the time is just right to send a message and start finding the right guy.

Here me out...Michael Young with Wash as his Jackie Moore.

 

[ShreveFrog]

Wash will not be back.
