On aggressive pursuits, Bo Bichette, Jon Morosi, Alek Manoah, Bowden Francis, stadium renovations, All-Star rejection, Gibby!, Donaldson, Bautista, Yamamoto, Jansen, Gausman, and so much more!
What's going on with the Ben Wagner drama? What a pathetic move by Rogers. Jerk the guy around for 6 years, don't give him any ex-MLB pros in the booth, don't allow him to travel with the team, then can him. Nice.
I used to sync up the radio broadcast with the TV broadcast because I like the flow better, until our good friend Dan Schulman hit the scene. Stop deliberately ruining the radio experience, I'm sick of it.
The Manoah situation is just so bizarre. I don't know if we'll ever get the full 'story'. It seems quite plausible that his workload contributed to shoulder issues that led to diminished velocity and control. Will that improve over time? Maybe, but maybe not. Perhaps the Jays are starting to say all the right things, but are not convinced about his future performance, in which case I can see them trading him - to the Cardinals for the dude we gave up to get DeJong!

Nice write up.

And inking more Japanese pitchers can only be a good thing.
As always, thanks for keeping the news fresh Stoeten and for the fun chat over on Tall Can.
Count me as one of the fans who think Manoa is probably more valuable in a trade than on the roster.
Thanks for this roundup, Stoeten.
Thanks man!
