Montero can certainly tear his ACL but that would kinda suck for him and the M's. lol, omg.

Derek Jeter has played an entire regular season's worth of postseason games. Pretty incredible.

Darvish signs with Rangers. 6 years, $60 million. Or $111 million if you count the posting fee.

If the Padres had moved to Washington in 1974 like they'd planned, would there be a team in San Diego now? Would they still be in Washington?

If the A's had moved to Denver in 1979 as planned, would they have put a team in San Jose in 1993?

Might as well be. 31.

I assume the Indians can void his contract now if they want which would be a minor win for them

I'm about 80% certain that Pablo Sandoval is winning the NL MVP this year. Where can I get odds on that?

Any news on Dodgers bid-a-palooza? Did Mark Cuban win?

I think Selig signed on for two more years to make sure that Cuban WOULDN'T take over the Dodgers.
