Good for Josh Donaldson.
If you are deciding how to feel about his actions based on which team he plays for or the outcome of a pitcher/hitter confrontation, then you are doubling down on a problem far more problematic to our society than sticky stuff on a baseball. Predetermining your opinion based on a team (Yankees or Twins, Democrats or Republicans) rather than on considering the issue exposes a blind devotion to a side rather than the facts. Donaldson said out loud what was being said behind closed doors — the pitcher-hitter combat is being distorted by the use of illegal sticky stuff and that Gerrit Cole’s spin went down noticeably in his start before facing Donaldson’s Twins, but immediately after much more scrutiny was placed on this matter.

For the New York Giants (among others), identifying the right head coach has become an unsolvable Rubik’s Cube.

If Aaron Judge hit from the other side of the plate, perhaps he would be the one untouchable lefty bat as the Yankees try to become more balanced in their lineup.
The tense divorce between the Clippers and veteran point guard Chris Paul was weeks in the making before the 12-time All-star ultimately was sent home by the team earlier this month.
The number of people who have asked me what the “J.T. Miller Experience” has been like since the Rangers brought the impassioned forward back to New York is comical.
