  1. For lollygagging.
  2. Facts: Who pays for Tommy John surgery in MLB?: Bridget Winters, Bachelor’s Degree Operations and Supply Chain Management, Cleveland State University (2018) Answered June 4, 2018 I used to work for the Cleveland Indians and usually the insurance they have for the players covers most of it and whatever that doesn’t cover, the team does. Major League Baseball (MLB) Major League Baseball (MLB) Benefits ★★★★★ 109 Ratings Our Benefits We know that our employees' performance is directly related the environment that they're in. That's why at MLB, we provide exceptional Medical, Dental and Vision Coverage - premiums 100 percent employer covered - so you can focus on being your best. What type of medical coverage do MLB teams carry? John Finn, Research Expert and Statistician at Self-Employment (1990-present) Answered February 7, 2019 Full coverage by their teams. This goes for injuries/ailments that are not sports related too... because in reality, all injuries/ailments effect how they play sports. Jon Lester had to deal with Cancer and Ryan Westmoreland had to deal with a malformation in his brain. They were covered by the Red Sox. Sadly, Westmoreland never made it to the big leagues. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/sports/wp/2016/09/09/worried-about-your-aces-100-million-arm-there-is-insurance-for-that/ (This is insuring the entire contract, not just TJ).
  3. Those refusing the vaccination should be denied: The opportunity for military service. Organ transplants. Work in any state or federal agency, any school, any hospital, any first responder job. Entry into any restaurant. Medical insurance.
  4. It's called Fixed That For You. I'll do that anytime I want to. Snowflake.
  5. In other words... a very small chance.
  6. That's going to be hard to do when we have the #1 pick in next year's draft.
  7. Yes. Republicans.
  8. Any time the Yankees lose, there is a worldwide celebration.
  9. Or he's just trying to field an NFL team since this team is holier than the pope... I mean, good luck with that Holmes...
  10. You know.. Like the polio vaccine or the 17 vaccines that those in the military are required to take.... Right?
  11. I'm interested in seeing Killian. Rumors are that he is totally taking off (as in like a rocket) in camp. Would like to see that extended into the regular season. But don't even know what that looks like until we see some pre-season...
  12. That was always fun... and interesting...! Meaning: it held our interest, every single minute of his management...
  13. Hah! The news finally caught up with your post. Searched everywhere and saw nothing when I posted... which says, RM, you are way ahead of the crowd!!!
  14. Where are you seeing this?
  15. "If they can't stay on the field...", Then of what use are they? That's probably a bit harsh on Flowers though... his history was fine prior to last year...
  16. This is like arguing with a piece of wood. Do you not understand this? At all? "Los Angeles Angels pitcher Garrett Richards has opted to undergo Tommy John surgery after an MRI on Wednesday revealed damage to the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow" That's NOT ELECTIVE SURGERY Useful IDIOT. "DAMAGE to the UCL"... is not ELECTIVE. And NO, the sources you provided do NOT give ample evidence. I'm done. I'm not arguing with you anymore.
  17. Beaches. The Keys. Deep-sea diving, or fishing, or boating. Miami Beach. Disney. Universal. So many options...
  18. PS: YOU are the one who said MLB players get elective surgeries. So YOU provide the evidence that they are GETTING elective surgeries. Otherwise... you're completely full of it.
  19. Your published works are opinion. You said you're interested in facts only. Quit posting opinion pieces. Provide facts.
  20. Donovan Sebrango? I think the team is actually a bit high on his potential... Doesn't mean anything. I'm just sayin'...
  21. MLB pitchers are not taking "elective surgery" TJ's. Show me the data, and not the one-off anecdotal "story" or opinion BS that you just posted.
