  1. Coroner’s report is out on Tyler Skaggs. Sad story. The cause of death is listed as a mixture of “alcohol, fentanyl and oxycodone intoxication with terminal aspiration of gastric contents,” meaning Skaggs, 27, essentially choked on his vomit while under the influence. The death, according to the report, was ruled an accident. He was found on his bed, fully clothed, and there were no signs of trauma. https://www.latimes.com/sports/angels/story/2019-08-30/tyler-skaggs-autopsy-report-fentanyl-oxycodone-alcohol-angels-rusty-hardin
  2. Bellows and MDC aren’t looking too good so far. Particularly MDC.
  3. When he was on Spittin’ Chiclets he had a decent story about getting into broadcasting. Worth a listen for those that might be interested.
  4. Don’t think I agree on all points but that’s fair. I can’t say I’ve watched him enough at the NHL level to comment too much. I remember watching him prior to his draft and thinking he’d be a world beater.
  5. This seems like a bit of revisionist history. All of his pre-draft profiles mention great hockey IQ, awareness, vision, etc.
  6. Don’t get your hopes up- my last dog must’ve got sprayed 5-6 times. Some dogs are fast learners while others just don’t seem to learn at all
  7. Both teams jerseys are an absolute eyesore. Admittedly, I’ve barely followed Major League Baseball this year so I’ve gotta ask- wtf is this?
  8. It’s only as bad as the coach and participant make it, which is true of any training modality.
  9. I think that accident left her with the prospect of not walking again but I could be misremembering. Even without having been in the wreck she’s pretty impressive, that just makes it all the more impressive.
  10. I just discovered last week that she’s only 18. Blew my mind. I thought she was closer to my age (26).
  11. I predict Loui comes to camp, gets put on a line with two of the biggest scrubs Travis Green can find, and ends up being one of the first cuts to Utica. Book it.
  12. It was inevitable. When the current regime came in the cupboards were bare after a couple of playoff runs. Fans can rag on Shatkins and clamour for AA back as much as they want but in reality, the team is in its current state because of moves AA made. Let’s not forget he gave up some very good prospects in what were mostly failed trades. His big ones (Dickey, Buehrle, Tulo) really didn’t work out.
  13. TJ isn’t a big deal anymore. Many teams don’t get scared off because of it at the draft anymore. It’s just accepted that pitchers will very likely have TJ at some point in their careers, and often times the elbow is stronger after having it. Some younger pitchers are even trying to blow out their UCL in order to get it done with earlier now.
