ENEMY OF MY ENEMY

Rob Manfred reverses a century of precedent after a mysterious meeting with the President.

How do these #SFGiants have the second-best record in baseball? Looks like the 2025 #Tigers are picking up right where 2024 left off... but in a completely different way. Hell, even Javier Báez is finding unexpected ways to contribute. #RepDetroit Former Tigers' executive Sam Menzin exposes himself to earn Asshole of the Week. Garrett Crochet returns to Chicago with a no-hit bid, $170M in his...

Despite popular belief, bad journalism, or urban legend, there’s nothing new or illegal about the ‘torpedo’ bats the #Yankees are using to obliterate baseballs. A hot 4-1 start for the #SFGiants is only good for 3rd place in the ridiculous National League West. Claiming the Cody Bellinger trade was anything but a #Cubs salary dump is a fucking lie and an insult to every fan’s intelligence. If the...

There's no way to explain SIX pitchers forced to get Tommy John surgery before Opening Day other than declaring the #WhiteSox are officially CURSED. What might a trade for Luis Robert Jr. to the #Tigers, desperate for a replacement centerfielder, look like? Jed Hoyer doesn’t instill much confidence when, once again, he said he hopes the mediocre #Cubs roster he's assembled somehow "ex...

#Cubs get swept out of Tokyo by the #Dodgers, but it's only two games so no big deal, RIGHT?Do the #WhiteSox really believe they can improve upon the perfection of the "Southside" City Connect uniforms?

Is this the end of the line for former #Cubs legend Anthony Rizzo ? Early injuries to Parker Meadows and Matt Vierling are troubling trends for the #Tigers. Cover charge just to get on the Las Vegas wa...

A 1.240 career OPS at Fenway would've been enough for Alex Bregma n to choose the #RedSox, but $40M per certainly didn't hurt. But did anyone give Rafael Devers the meno? #Tigers owner  Chris Ilitch  and president  Scott Harris  proved to skeptical fans that they were all in with a 6-year, $171M offer for Bregman. At the same time, they are also fortunate that he simply didn't want to...

Tom Ricketts told #Cubs fans they should stop talking about money since his goal is to merely 'break even' every year. Ken Rosenthal told him he should open his books or shut his mouth. After trading for  Kyle Tucker and  Ryan Pressley , will the Chicago Astros complete the trifecta by signing  Alex Bregman ? New "Blues Alternate" uniforms are an electrifying addition to the nort...

BREAKING NEWS: Sammy Sosa is STILL a piece of shit even after Tom Ricketts accepts his insincere apology that leaned far more towards excuse-making than actual contrition. Jed Hoyer made the best trade of his #Cubs tenure, followed by his worst trade just a few hours later: acquiring superstar Kyle Tucker and then paying the #Yankees $5M to take Cody Bellinger off their payroll. Nothing in life is...

Chris Getz gives Garrett Crochet a Sox-change operation transitioning from White to Red. Remembering #WhiteSox legends Bill Melton and Dick Allen. #Cubs legend Kyle Hendricks makes sad choice to end career with the pathetic #LAAngels. Could #Astros all-star Kyle Tucker be on his way to the North Side? Buster Posey 's wild #SFGiants spending spree continues with massive Willy Adames overpay. Angry...

What kind of sweetheart deal did the #WhiteSox have to offer Will Venable to get him to want to be their manager? Is Jerry Reinsdorf really ready to sell his beloved Sox, or are there ulterior motives behind putting the idea out for public consumption? Will former top prospects and first-time free agents Yoan Moncada or Eloy Jimenez get Major League offers? Jed Hoyer finds fewer pathways to transf...

Tarik Skubal and the #Tigers got bounced out of the ALDS but Detroit enjoyed an incredible ride with a promising future. Does anyone really want to be the next #WhiteSox manager? Comical CBT clerical error costs #Cubs and creates conspiracy theories. Exploring #SFGiants free agent options. MLB sends down "Oakland" removal edict. Revisiting our preseason NostraDumbass predictions reveals just how d...

Criminal charges should be filed if AJ Hinch doesn't win AL Manager of the Year as the #Tigers' impossible run into the postseason rolls on. Taking home the AL Triple Crown and his first playoff victory easily earns Tarik Skubal our Badass of the Week honor. #WhiteSox make the worst kind of history as more damning details of Jerry Reinsdorf 's gross negligence emerge. Jed Hoyer should be feeling t...

From a Standing O to a Golden Sombrero to the operating table, it's been one hell of a week and potentially the end of a wild career for #Cubs legend and #Tigers disappointment, Javier Báez . Winning series is nice, but the #SFGiants and Cubs need to go on long unbeaten steaks to even begin approaching Wild Card contention. Dubious history awaits the #WhiteSox as their death march toward the w...

Blake Snell quiets critics by making it past the 8th inning for the first time in his career and tosses another No-No of the Week. After failing to reach the ult...

Much like the soulless undead, the #SFGiants, #Tigers, #WhiteSox, and #Cubs are limping and lurching past the 2024 Trade Deadline and into a post-apocalyptic final two months of the season. MajorLeagueAholes.com

After a three-month hiatus, we make our triumphant return... with a VENGEANCE! If the #Tigers actually do the unthinkable and trade Tarik Skubal , Scott Harris had fucking better land the motherload of big-league-ready, future All-Star-level talent. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed with the Motor City version of Nike's ill-fated City Connect uniforms. Comcast, Bally Sports, and MLB c...

Four games over .500 and just two games back in the division is not a bad place to be, but the #Cubs could easily be 17-5 if Adbert Alzolay hadn't blown FOUR saves in this young season. The wrong kind of history is being made on the Southside as the #WhiteSox set new standards for ineptitude. Maybe a little booing from #Tigers fans is all Javy Báez needed to begin to get back to his former dyn...

The #Tigers' hot start, stoked by the bullpen and defense, begins to fizzle as the offense continues to sputter. Somehow the 90 feet between home plate and first base become the most dangerous real estate on Earth for #WhiteSox stars Eloy Jimenez , Luis Rober Jr. , and Yoan Moncada . ASKHOLE? If forced to choose one, would Sox fans now prefer Tony La Russa to Pedro Grifol as manager? And could...

It's Baseball fucking Eve and we've got ALL the useless 2024 #MLB season predictions you could possibly ask for. You're welcome. It's been a week since the Shohei Ohtani gambling scandal came to light, yet the whole story remains like an onion — the more layers you peel back, the more it stinks. The #Cubs are rumored to face the #Dodgers next March in Tokyo to kick off the 2025 MLB...

#OpeningDay is Thursday, March 28 but that couldn't stop #MLB from starting the season in the middle of the night in Korea as their ill-fated quest for global domination featured bomb threats and equipment failures. Trading Dylan Cease to the #Padres was the final nail in the coffin for the previous #WhtieSox rebuild, but it was the right thing for everyone involved. History will repeat itself...

#Tigers top pitching prospect Jackson Jobe made an electrifying MLB Spring Training debut and could soon be a part of a young and deep rotation in Detroit. Rumor has it the #Yankees, #Rangers, #Padres, (and #Cubs?) are blowing up Chris Getz ' cell with serious trade offers for Dylan Cease . Could some good old-fashioned positive regression lead to a better '24 season than most expect from...

Buckle up for a tumultuous "Summer of Sell" in Oakland as A's fans plan to wage war against team president David Kaval and owner John Fisher .
