Yankees play Atlanta on Friday, why would Judge be on a plane


I guess he could be spending Wednesday with his family? That’s a quick turnaround though.

Just a wild idea but maybe stay for the whole game


Yeah, I think leaving early is a bad look for the game as a whole.

Don’t even go if you’re going to play 4-5 innings and leave as soon as you’re done. Just bizarre but not surprising

I turned it off at 6-0. Sounds like a wiffle ball game broke out after 9 innings

You’re right, but I also think the pampering of athletes is beyond ridiculous now.


I couldn’t agree more. I see managers give guys games off and the next day is an off day.

Does this guy do it for every Braves game?
Not every game, but a lot of them.

Atlanta is the hip hop capital of the United States. Why is it ok for events in Nashville allowed to play country songs for events? Why is it ok for events played in New Orleans to play Blues and Jazz music? That’s all perfectly ok though according to you but because it’s Atlanta, everything is bad

You think Nashville would play country music if it hosted the nba all star game?

Nashville will never get the NBA All-Star game because Nashville does not even have an NBA team. Just like Louisiana will never ever get the MLB All-Star game because Louisiana will never get a pro baseball team.

Nice try though with the gotcha.

Might be a matter of getting loose also. Some guys have major routines.
They showed Alonso in the batting cage while the NL was carrying in the bottom of the 9th. I 100% understand Ohtani not batting due to his unique situation. Judge has zero excuse. I suspect MLB will start mandating position players stay in uniform until the game is over.

I'm starting to get to that spot in life where I start comparing today to the players of my youth. The NFL ruined their all star game when my generation stopped playing it as a competition (granted it was due to salaries far outpacing the "win bonus"). The NBA ASG wasn't a highly competitive game but it used to look like two teams of players whose defense sucked but could run up the score. Now the big guys don't even leave their offensive side of the court. The NHL was similar to the NBA.

Now baseball has ruined their All Star Monday with this abortion of a HRD and squeezing out the celebrity game that usually aired after it. The Futures game was on Wednesdays but now it's buried under the final day before the MLB break. MLB needs to stop the slide off the actual ASG before people start turning it off like they've done with the other big 4's ASGs.

Umm, Las Vegas hosted in 2007 without having a team...
