Correa is a POS as far as I am concerned. The way that he handled the cheating in Houston was despicable. He doubled down on everything and should be banned from baseball. And then throw in this offseason with him and his agent having three contracts and trying to downplay his injury to clubs. Yeah he’s a great guy. He deserves to be beaned every AB for an entire season.

On March 28 in Baseball History...​
  • 1977 - The Rangers' Len Randle, angry for having been benched during spring training, attacks 50-year-old manager Frank Lucchesi, sending him to the hospital with a shattered cheekbone. Lucchesi helped precipitate the incident by calling the usually good-natured Randle a punk.

  • 1978 - The A's release Dick Allen, ending a stormy 15-year career which produced 351 home runs, 1,119 RBI, a .292 batting average, and a .534 slugging mark.

  • 1985 - The April 1 issue of Sports Illustrated contains a fictitious article about a Mets pitching prospect named Sidd Finch, whose fastball has been timed at 168 miles per hour. Author George Plimpton offers bogus quotes from real-life members of the Mets, as well as several staged photos, and fools readers nationwide.

  • 1990 - A plan to allow starting pitchers to earn victories with only three innings pitched (because of the abbreviated spring training period) is scrapped, but teams will be allowed to open the regular season with 27-man rosters instead of the allowed maximum of 25.
