Why is Big Papi looking to be treated differently than any other cheater?

this dude thinks he can outrun his failed test?

Nats will likely be without three regular starters in the opener in Span, Werth, and Rendon.

This will be like last year where we'll struggle around .500 for the first couple of months until we're healthy and then get on a roll.

Thankfully we have the pitching staff to win games 2-1, although our bullpen worries me and we aren't a good clutch hitting team.

He tries to make a big deal about player injustices and whatnot, but he's really only tarnishing his image by saying crap like this. Between the new hitting rules, and all the steroid heat A-Rod is bringing back to the East, this season will probably have more clubhouse/off the field drama than any serious drama in the standings.

lol, Kris Bryant sent down to the minors.

Quick answer.
Why would the Cubs play a game like this? They have money and giving him a lucrative deal a year earlier is better to me.

I could see trying to start his clock later if you're a broke franchise…
whatever…it's just a few games.
