Hall of Famer Don Sutton dead at 75

Maybe he was more of a compiler than peak to get to the Hall, maybe he used his position in media to advance his HOF case, as he wasn't first ballot, but there's no denying he had an incredible career and baseball life.

I feel like I've listened to him my whole life, and practically grew up with him

Also, Jesus, they're showing the Jared Porter text dialogue on SportsCenter, and it's as horrible as all the news stories implied

RIP Don

He became the Vin Scully of Braves Country after Skip and Pete died and he moved exclusively to radio. Many games I listened to were for him more than the Braves.

He'd always joke about how many games he lost and how hopeless he was at the plate. Brought his small town Alabama boy spin to every game. Lots of stories. He was born in the same small town as George Wallace, vut was in most ways the exact opposite kind of man.

I held out hope even though he'd not called a game in 2 years. They always kept saying he was still part of the team and hoped to be back. I can still hear his recap and signoff from the final game he called. I was in my truck, behind a grocery store parking lot in Florida, looking for an empty trailer that wasn't there.

He led the league in WHIP four times and K/BB three times

Not a TOTAL compiler

Just a very quick look at Sutton's stats show dude was a beast with an awesome whip, but not an elite ERA or era+ and not much love in the awards and ASGs. Eating all of those innings may have some all important W's and cost him many cya votes.

RIP Don, always enjoyed his broadcasting.

Didn't realize he started 16 games for the '88 Dodgers, his final year. Didn't pitch in the playoffs though.

Save some money for a new tv Torontoans. You'll need it when you throw your remote at it after Springer gets picked multiple times and makes horrible baserunning outs in the playoffs. Legit worst athletic ability to baserunning skills ratio I've seen. Not to mention how much that 6/150 will hamstring the team from more important needs. And that swinging for the left field fence every swing gets old real fast. glgl.

like $115M in payroll commitments after Springer/Yates/Chatwood, richest ownership in baseball, only Springer guaranteed money after '23 so shut up with your hamstring.

Was just a rumour yesterday, guess we'll find out. As I said idk anything abt it so here we gooooo

Jays signed Brantley too. Woulda preferred Realmuto to Springer.

Brantley is a good signing. They have to be working a trade for some pitching with all of those good young outfielders that are getting squeezed.

Brantley signing came as a big surprise on the heels of Springer.

Hearing the Brantley deal isn't official yet, that team is likely not ready to announce it until the physical is done given the injury history but it's a done deal.

Yoink!

Brantley doesn't want to live in Buffalo.

Quote:
The Astros have agreed to terms with free-agent outfielder Michael Brantley on a two-year, $32 million deal that will bring him back to Houston, Mark Berman of Fox 26 reports. The reported agreement perhaps caps a whirlwind day on the Brantley front. Earlier on Wednesday, it was reported by Hazel Mae and Ken Rosenthal that Brantley had reached a three-year deal with the Blue Jays, but both later walked back those reports.
