Morton was mediocre for several years before "figuring it out" in his age 33 season and becoming one of the best SP's in MLB over the 3 years preceding 2020.
Hamels had the opposite trajectory. He looked like a potential HOF caliber player until his age 33 season, then the physical deterioration started, and he was around league average for the 3 years preceding 2020, out hurt most of the season.
Extremely different circumstances for each of them. Also, knowing TB was in on Morton as the other bidder, and knowing their highly restrictive budget, it gives me some faith that he's got more gas in the tank.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

Arozarena detained in Mexico on Domestic charges.........If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

As you mention, its still possible, but the amicable resolution is a great sign.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

Originally posted by Teenwolf View PostSounds like he was physical with the ex's father, but not the ex herself. If there's no abuse of a partner, and its simply a tense argument over custody that was later resolved, the summary of facts leads me to believe he will not be suspended. This is just my take from what's known publicly.
