During Friday night’s Dodgers-Giants game at AT&T Park, Yasiel Puig went off. He tripled three times during the game, and added a double as well for good measure.

This can’t be real, can it? If so, you are *the worst*, Bridgeport Bluefish. Who would ever want to wear this? I never thought I’d say this, but…BRING BACK CAMO. At least we’re immune to it now.

So, I guess the Mariners have no issue with giving up a player *and* paying the pro-rated part of $14 million for Kendrys Morales… In 39 games with the Twins, Morales hit .234/.259/.325. The Mariners gave him a qualifying offer this winter, refused to sign him once he declined the offer, and have now traded […]
