So this is the new Covid?

Nah. Listeria is very common. It just becomes a problem when iit gains a foothold in large colonies.

“Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacterium that is widespread in the environment and may be introduced into a food processing facility from raw materials, humans, or equipment. Without proper controls, it can proliferate in food processing facilities where it may contaminate food. Therefore, it is essential to identify the areas of the food processing plant where this organism can grow and survive, and to apply controls or take corrective actions as necessary to eradicate the organism. Consuming foods contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes can lead to a severe, sometimes life-threatening, illness called listeriosis, which is a major public health concern due to the severity of the disease, its high case-fatality rate, its long incubation time, and its tendency to affect individuals with underlying conditions.” - FDA

FDA warns food firm over years of positive Listeria tests in dips and spreads

The Food and Drug Administration sends warning letters to entities under its jurisdiction as part of its enforcement activities. Some letters are not

The fact that Billy Wagner and Andruw Jones still haven’t made it is laughable to me.

Austin Riley exited game in 9th inning last night to be with his wife who went into labor with their 2nd child. Congratulations to the young man.

You think the Braves would go all-in on Crochet with the Fried injury. I’m just a armchair GM though…

@knoxvol52 looks like the Dodgers will be trying to find a trade partner for James Paxton.

He will be the coach of the century whenever it’s all said and done.

Yea, @cobbwebb0710 article says that Kopech and Luis Roberts of WhiteSox on radar. Crochet may end up with Yanks if they add Spencer Jones to sweeten the pot for Crochet.

I don’t unfortunately. Unless the Sox are content with getting a ton of prospect arm in return, I don’t think the Braves have enough chips.

If the Braves were fully healthy and in serious contention, maybe.

Jones would be the pot sweetener for sure!

Crochet is going to draw a Soto type trade, at least close to it.
The White Sox could set themselves up for the future very nicely.
Along with Spencer Jones, watch for the names Roderick Arias, Everson Pereira, George Lombard jr and Augustin Ramirez(this kid is a stud behind the plate)
