It is crazy that someone would want to spend $3.9B to buy a team in a sport that is so broken and full of teams that are losing money to hear them tell it.Quote:

I think the prospective new owner realizes that if a cap comes in franchise values will rocket and their investment will see an immediate return.Quote:

I agree with GAC this lockout is going to the matresses.
Watching the Yankees-Royals game and saw that India isn't in the lineup. Looks like his playing time has definitely decreased, and with good reason.
Time for India to start looking at getting his realtor licenseQuote:

On This Day in Dodgers History: Sandy Koufax Becomes First Pitcher With 3 Immaculate Innings
Full Article Here:Quote:
On April 18, 1964, Los Angeles Dodgers legend Sandy Koufax tossed an immaculate inning against the Cincinnati Reds, becoming the first pitcher in National League history to accomplish the feat on three separate occasions.
As a refresher, an immaculate inning is when a pitcher strikes out all three batters faced on just nine pitches.
This is just one of many highlights for Koufax from a 12-year career with the Dodgers. He posted a lifetime record of 165-87 with a 2.76 ERA, beginning his career in Brooklyn.

San Diego Padres infielder Jake Cronenworth was struck in the face by a 96 mph fastball Saturday night against the Los Angeles Angels but remained in the game as the team rallied late for a 4-1 victory.
Cronenworth, who is already the Padres’ all-time hit-by-pitch leader, was struck in the chin during the fifth inning after a high pitch from Angels left-hander Yusei Kikuchi. The ball barely grazed Cronenworth on the shoulder before making contact with his chin.
"He’s a hockey player, and he didn’t lose any teeth," manager Craig Stammen said after the game, via MLB.com. "So he had to stay in the game. That was the rule.
