The league office strongly condemns these threats of violence but, due to repeated complaints from various GMs about how unfairly their players are treated, has been effectively neutered in its ability to punish this kind of behavior.
We wish Mr. Verlander the best and may God have mercy on all our souls.
Victor Robles is on the move just ahead of the 2021 Trade Deadline. ABQ is happy to announce an agreement with Oklahoma City.
Isotopes send Victor Robles to OKC in exchange for Jesse Pierce, Akil Baddoo, CJ Van Eyk, and Alvaro Seijas.
OKC graciously removed their “Akil Baddoo name bonus” requirement in order to make the deal and OKC’s offer to send Seth Elledge’s pitching hand was appreciated but ultimately turned down by ABQ.
UPDATE: Due to budgetary restrictions, Akil Baddoo will be retained 100% by OKC and ABQ will be sending back the equivalent amount of cash, $9764.
OKC is pleased to announce the completion of a deal with Brooklyn. The Trash Pandas send Raisel Iglasias and $700k to The Grove in exchange for prospects Mick Abel and Hudson Potts.
OKC’s busy deadline night continues. Danny Santana has been paid about $6M to sit in AAA and tell stories to all the youngsters about that year back in 2020 when he hit 38 home runs and cursing the day that prodigy Josh Lowe came for his job. No more!
Cleveland has agreed to take on the remaining balance of Mr. Santana’s contract. In exchange, OKC will send along 16 yr old int’l prospect Angel Aguirre.
Cleveland returns $1 to OKC as valuable consideration to complete the deal.
With the Carp Streamers scuffling under the pressure of undeveloped talent and veterans with bad attitudes, General Manager Henry Woodbury informs the league that he’s decided to take a few days off to go camping. “Maybe campfire chili will help me chill out,” he tweeted on his twitter account with no followers. “No exports from the Wind Socks for the next few days.”
