Angels have a family reunion on the dl & remember when joe m. Was suppose to go to sox? Reality of Mlb
I wonder how much time Joe Mauer has left in Minnesota… I’d be willing to take a case of bubble gum and some pine tar in exchange for someone to take that contract off the books.
Alzolay was the shot in the arm this desperate Cubs team was going to need later on. The Cubs are no match for Milwaukee and they now do not have any internal options for rotation help. I see them pulling off a deal with the Twins for Berrios.
