OFFICIAL 2018 MLB PLAYOFFS Thread (Cubs free)

After Votto dropped the popup and Segura homered people apparently started background checking Josh Hader. There are tons of articles and tweets so I won't link anything here, but dude is a crazy racist homophobe. It will be very interesting to see if MLB does anything.
 
Woof - the MLB gave his whole family blank all star gear to put on to replace all the stuff they had that said his name on it. Not many other ways to take some of those tweets.

I'm not offended, ace - by all accounts, he is a good teammate, I don't care enough to judge him, another reason all famous people should delete old social media stuff. Or just create like 9 accounts like Kevin Durant.
 
Sounds like the other teams didn't pony up much. The Phillies seem to be waiting to sign him in the off-season without paying highly now.
 
Deal is done. Os get 5 prospects including Diaz who they highly coveted. For 66 days of Machado. If he stayed, the Os would only get a comp pick. From the Os side, seems like a win. Now they focus on moving Britton. Then Brach, hopefully.

The Orioles were on pace to finish the season 47-115 with Manny Machado (and Brach, Britton and Jones - all of whom may be gone in the next two weeks); scary to think how bad this Oriole roster will be in August and September. The 1962 expansion Mets have the worst record in MLB history for a team playing a 162 game schedule (40-120; two rainouts not made up). O's will have a legit shot to be the worst MLB team in more than 50 years.

Manfred calls out Mike Trout for not marketing himself enough, so the Angels essentially tell Manfred to go fuck himself in an official release. Weird.
 
Brad Hand to the Indians.

With Miller coming back, could see another strong playoff run by them with him, Allen and Hand locking down the last three innings. That is assuming Tito can communicate the actual guy he wants to the bullpen.
 
^^^ Not to be overlooked is the fact that they'll coast to a division win and can strategically rest guys. The other four teams will all be fighting to avoid the WC.
