    We have an (insignificant) trade:
    The Los Angeles Dodgers acquire Matt Kemp from the Atlanta Braves in exchange for Adrian Gonzalez, Scott Kazmir, Brandon McCarthy, Charlie Culberson and cash considerations.

      Watching "Billy" on MLB Network, the movie they made about Billy Martin.

      Good grief, he was a circus.

          90 feet. How fitting.

          The man was good for about a 2-year window. Once you got into that 3rd season, you knew you were going to have serious issues.

            Kind of like Mike Keenan. Torts, too, though he lasts about 3-4 years. Coaches like that wear out their welcome very quickly.

                        But at least Mets fans weren't the only ones getting screwed.
                        That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                              As I eluded to the "Greatest Franchises" thread, I have applied my formula that I used for ranking college hockey programs and NFL franchises to baseball. Similar to the football unveil, I thought people may be interested in having a "Top 10 Contest." Given the holidays, I'll give everyone until January 5, 2018 to make their predictions, and then I'll start unveiling the teams with the hope of finishing the list before Spring Training.
