    I feel 'chaos' might be too strong of a word here. When I clicked on this article, I expected to read about shootings, stabbings, bloodbaths, and all-around pandemonium. Not poor communication and scheduling.

    Ben Badler at home:
    Badler: Where's that remote?... Oh god, I can't find the remote control! Jesus, god, where is it?! Oh Christ!...
    Badler's roommate: It's on top of the TV.
    Badler: I left it by the couch! Why didn't you tell me you'd moved it?!
    Badler's roommate: I didn't think it was a big deal.
    Badler: Didn't think it was a big deal!?! I expect the remote to be near the couch and you move it to god know's where! How am I supposed to deal with this chaos?!
    Badler's roommate: 'Chaos'? Dude, maybe it's time for your Wellbutrin.
    Badler: Yes, maybe you're right. Now, where is my Wellbutrin?... Holy mother of f***! I can't find my Wellbutrin! Entropy! Entropy!!!
    Badler's roommate (shaking fist): Damn you, 'Craigslist rooms & shares'!

    I was hoping for pro- and/or anti-Castro protestors showing up and disrupting the proceedings, with accusations that Puig is betraying the Revolution followed by counter-charges that so and so is a marxisant and maybe an Earth First!er appearing to rub pine tar on the face of the Tampa scout while yelling, "Revenge for the trees!"

    Ben Badler at home:
    Badler: I was on both Farscape and Stargate, so I can see why people get confused.
    Badler's roommate: That was Ben Browder.
    Badler: *disintegrates him with a ray gun*

    Puig appears to have been granted free agency by MLB. Anybody actually know anything about him? He has to sign by July 2 so teams won't have much time to scout him.

    Dodgers sign him for $40 million.

    Now he's as happy as a Puig in a shitload of money.

    Hardball Talk:
    It’s twice [the money that] most expected him to get and $6 million more than [Yoenis] Cespedes received from the A’s this spring.
    Who knows, of course.

    Amusingly, I looked at the picture and thought, "Jesus Christ, does anyone seriously believe that a Cuban claiming to be 21 years old looks like THAT??" before realizing who it was...

    His DT
