Damn, and no vit. s , That had to have felt good. Huge milestone. How long has it been?
Here’s the answers to the insurance questions.
The team pays for the insurance. Both the player and the team gets compensated due to injury. Seems kinda backwards.

What happens to MLB contract if player gets injured during WBC?
Who pays the salary of a Major League Baseball player after he gets hurt while competing in the World Baseball Classic? Heres how the insurance process works.
With the WBC wrapping up and a bunch of teams already eliminated, our roster is looking alot like it will in the regular season.
Olberman is correct, sexist remark aside.

Keith Olbermann apologizes for 'sexist' hot take after Edwin Diaz's injury at WBC
Perhaps no one had a spicier take about the New York Mets closer’s devastating season-ending knee injury than the polarizing veteran TV host.

almost makes me want to say fuck MLB altogether
Those are 2 morons who could have at least been diplomatic and said both are equal in their minds. Instead chose to be dicks about it. I almost hope Olberman comes back with a new tweet......"Fuck Manny's Grandmother and fuck Manny too"
Manny could have said that but he was being honest. Nothing wrong with that. That's how much this tournament means to those players.
I think it's a good thing. IMO, it gets the players better prepared for the regular season rather than playing in all these meaningless spring training games where they're not even really trying.

I call bullshit on that one. There WAS one diplomatic individual who figured it out and gave the right answer. But not Manny or his fucking grandmother or the other stooges
The only saving grace for Manny is he correctly stated he'd never won a WS. So he's right, how the FUCK does he know???? I'd wager if asked the same if he ever gets the fortune of winning a WS he'll suddenly grow a brain and answer diplomatically they are equally wonderful, or he may even , in his moment of glory...say "nothing is like winning the WS" lmao. Jeebus...these guys are truly lacking brain power. Makes me want to puke that answer they gave.

Evolution is sexual, not sexist. Silly outrage.
my opinion
The WBC is personal, the other is a business goal.
Jim Thorpe played professional baseball, the professional
football, new evidence is that he played professional basketball and was
considering a try at pro hockey.
Two time Olympic Gold winner, first Native American to
win for the Sac and Fox Nation.
I am no more proud of my career as an athlete than I am of the fact that I am a direct descendant of that noble warrior [Chief Black Hawk].

The Yankees, you see, they're a money team, they're the class of baseball. You don't ever bet against that.

I view the WBC like the Olympics, you play for your country and there's a greater pride involved but it's the World Series and the pursuit of titles that gets one the big contracts and potentially into Cooperstown, not the Olympics or the WBC.I call bullshit on that one.

Trea Turner hero with the grand slam! He called it the #1 moment of his career.
I agree. This is 100% about pride and patriotism and nothing to do with the ugly business side of sports. it's great to see.

different strokes for different folks. For me it's big fuckin deal.
It's a shame you guys aren't enjoying it.
The overwhelming view I see online is very positive for the tournament, which is pretty surprising knowing how negative Twitter, Reddit, YouTube are.
There are some really epic games going on. Normally during spring training I'm bored out of my mind watching a bunch of nobodies who will never sniff the majors and just dying for the season to start, if I even bother watching the games lol.

Padres unleash the beast with star-studded lineup
PEORIA, Ariz. -- To be perfectly clear: Yes, it was just a Spring Training game. No, the Padres' come-from-behind, 11-6 victory on Saturday afternoon doesn’t count for anything in the standings. But if there was a more exhilarating Cactus League game in franchise history, it's hard to remember...

great article thanks! That is very encouraging. Especially that Tatis is hitting and contributing.....that was the big thing I was waiting to see and he's looking to be back in form. Damn, it is right on, that lineup is dangerous all the way through especially if Grish hits this year. No real breaks for pitchers as they said. Pick your poison. This will help our pitchers a great deal. Now if we can get solid consistent pitching from 1-5 and hopefully also 6 , we will do bigtime damage. Can't wait for the season to start and for Jr. to get back from the suspension.Padres unleash the beast with star-studded lineup

'Really worried': Altuve another WBC star injured
On a night catcher Salvador Perez labeled "a double loss," Venezuela was eliminated by Team USA 9-7 in the World Baseball Classic Saturday after star second baseman Jose Altuve left the game with a right hand injury suffered when he was hit by a pitch.

That sucks for Houston, a really unfortunate and IMO unnecessary loss. At least for the Pads, Martinez is reportedly coming back as he’s not slated to pitch anymore. Last man left is Yu, hope Japan doesn’t burn him.'Really worried': Altuve another WBC star injured
