if he is on the DL he can not be released, right? He can if he is not on the DL, right?

You can.

Yes and yes.

Both Chicago teams are 2-0 for the first time since 1951. End times?

I didn't realize Chicago had two MLB teams. I know about the White Sox and the minor league Cubs.

Oh! Ouch! Will you being getting death threats from Cub fans now?

I could kick all three of their ***** at the same time.

Would the Blue Jays win if they wore dresses?

How stupid is it that a pitcher can get both a hold and a loss in the same game?

Let's hope not.

Very.

Cubs fans have three *****?

Thoughts on the new 2b double play rule?

If a catcher in RF experiment produces an 840 OPS with 12 negative plays, is that a worthy trade off?

No. Three fans, one *** each. But I get your confusion as 10 share 1 brain in your family.

Meh. I find dissecting rules/umpiring/refereeing affects my enjoyment of the games. So I largely ignore them. That said, I think all sports are becoming so safety-conscious that they might be taking "competition" from their games.

It always depends on your other options. If your other option is .820 OPS and 0 negative plays, the answer is "no". I used .900+ OPS and 20+ negative plays pretty regularly as my other options were .750ish guys.

So on that note do you believe players should still be able to run down the catcher at home plate?
(I miss those days)

If the catcher chooses to block the plate, yes. It was part of the game for so long and happens so infrequently that I didn't really see a need to make a rule against it. After all, the C doesn't have to plant himself in front of the plate to make a tag. That said, I think sports are trying to take potential lawsuits out of the equation. The powers that be should add a clause to contracts that state "I am choosing to play this game and understand the dangers of potential injuries. I waive my right to sue" or something along that line.
