Jays are sending $2,216,989 to cover some of IKF's salary. I need to do some math to see the LRD/CBT split.

#neverboo. You'd be cool with someone coming to your place of work and degrading you for no other reason than not living up to a standard you unilaterally set for them?. You realize how awful that is?. Be a little more human please.

This is an incredible breakdown by @EthanHullihen on the current issues around baseball involving the Regional Sports Networks for MLB teams, including AT&T Sportsnet in Pittsburgh. Ethan includes a breakdown of what this could mean for the #Pirates.

On the criticism: “There’s no play at third. It’s all the way in right field. I can see how someone would say something, but I don’t really care. I’m ready every pitch.” (2/3).
