  • Ervin Santana signs with the Braves

    Terms unknown, but I'm guessing this also means that Medlen is done for the year.

    well as a Jays fan I'm happy to hear this. He should do well in Atlanta where the longball isn't as deadly as it would be in the AL east.
    It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

        Chipper Jones tweeted that Medlen is done for the year but the Braves haven't announced it yet. Make of that what you will.

            That was a fake Chipper Jones account.

                So, that fake Chipper is still a self-important twit, I guess.

                  Should we get the crying towel out for AA? What a crock of crap...

                  Toronto general manager Alex Anthopoulos said Ervin Santana didn't want to pitch in the American League.

                  "We're in the American League," Anthopoulos said during an appearance on Sportsnet 590 radio in Toronto. "Guys that don't want to be in the American League, there's nothing we can do." A.A. insisted that the right-hander's decision "was not money, was not years." We find this line of reasoning rather difficult to accept, as Santana has never actually pitched in the N.L., having spent the entirety of his nine-year career between the Angels and Royals. It seems that Anthopoulos is annoyed that Santana, choosing between equal offers, preferred the NL East instead of the AL East, an obvious choice for a hurler looking to rebuild his market value in 2014. We'd suggest to Anthopoulos that if he'd been more aggressive in February -- before Atlanta's rotation became ravaged by injury -- Santana would be in Toronto's Opening Day rotation.

                    Medlen says he knew right after he threw the pitch. No confirmation, but everybody knows it.

                        I think Ervin immediately become a very viable option in mixed leagues. Perfect park for this kind of pitcher and he gets to feast on Philly, Marlin and Met bats all season long.
