Oakland A’s reliever Sergio Romo was checked for “sticky stuff” and might have upstaged Max Scherzer in the process.

Mason Cole said Kenny Pickett called the run play on third and goal when Benny Snell scored. Cole added, “To see that confidence … it’s big. It really shows who he is as a leader.”

guard Kevin Dotson received death threats for committing multiple penalties, including a holding call on the play where Kenny Pickett was injured. “I’ve been a fan my whole life, but I never felt like I had the right to tell somebody that they should die.”

Wow. Went back and watched what happened with Heyward. Ronnie Staley literally grabbed and pulled Heyward on top of him, causing Heyward to contact the official right next to them. A weak, weak call by the officials.

The

starting QB usually speaks on Wednesdays. Kenny Pickett is in concussion protocol, and players in protocol can’t speak with the media. However, Mitch Trubisky isn’t speaking with the media today. That might tell you who the Steelers expect to start Sunday.

Najee Harris wasn’t about to suggest anything about tanking for draft picks. These guys want to win, playoffs or not.
“If we don’t make the playoffs, I can honestly say we played our best every game and not try to lose. That’s just not us. … Nobody ever talks about that.”

Minutes into the lockout, Rob Manfred closed his “letter to baseball fans” with the statement below. Then MLB sat silent for 6 weeks. Now, after *limited* negotiations, they put the MLBPA in a lose-lose situation.

I’m hearing—even after spending $561 million—the
#Rangers
are still not done. Starting pitching & OF are still areas they’d like to improve. Clayton Kershaw is still someone they’re interested in.
However, I don’t expect another signing before the lockout begins on Thursday.
