In-game scouting cards, pitch-calling from the dugout, and other forms of encroaching coaching/front-office interference on the field should be banned. I am not a crackpot.

Keep MLB Front Offices Away From the Field
With scouting cards and dugout pitch-calling, front offices and coaches are encroaching on the game and harming the spectator experience. Let players play.

The first outside the park homer in Chandler Simpson's career (they send him home after a review). No MLB homers, none in MLB Spring Training, only minor leaguer homer was an inside the parker.

The team in blue is getting caved in but still has a chance because of their goalie? Nice of them to put the last 20 years of Rangers hockey on the global stage.

I feel like I've seen these same exact renderings for a new Rays park a dozen times in the last 20 years.

Can't wait for the Rangers to trade Panarin for a late first round pick and a fourth liner they immediately sign to a three-year extension.

I know it's a new front office, but trading for Gore as part of the rebuild and then trading him away as part of the same rebuild 3.5 years later is rough.

I hope Drury steps in a puddle and has wet socks and shoelaces every day until they get a new GM. What a disaster he has been. He was supposed to take them out of the last rebuild and now he gets to start a new one four years later?

It's at least a little funny the Mets said they wanted to improve their defense, and then signing Bo Bichette and Jorge Polanco so they can play them out of position.

Wrote about Nico Hoerner. He's really good and the Cubs would be dumb to trade him, but they might as well listen because you never know when you'll get Scott Kazmir for Victor Zambrano.

MLB umpires are great at their jobs and if you replaced the 70-something full-time umps with the next best 70-something umps, you would definitely notice the drop in quality.

The Pirates should give the Red Sox a call and see how low they're willing to sell on Triston Casas.

I have written a book! It is available for sale now. It's a bunch of fun discussions about the leadoff man, including interviews with big names (Johnny Damon, Joe Mauer, John Smoltz, Mookie Betts, Kyle Schwarber and more), fun stories, best moments and, of course, rankings. Pick one up!

I know the Rays never lose trades, but the Blake Snell deal is a great big yikes.

Time to settle this the way they used to settle 14-inning games in the regular season before the automatic runner: with a backup infielder on the mound for one team, and a 31-year-old rookie who is gonna get DFAed in the morning for the other.
