Pre-game conversation.
What did you guys think of Arrieta going off on the Phillies club house and Harper? After looking it up, it looks like the only time Arrieta made a remotely negative comment when he was on the Cubs was when he didn't want the team to rest on its laurels going into the 2016 world series run, and it was more he was unhappy with how he was playing and didn't want Maddon to sugar coat it.. Think this make him regret not taking Theo's offer to stay even more?

April 23, 2019 - 23:57
Unrest for the Phillies makes me less worried for the Dodgers this year. His comments seem justified, though. It sucks when you're doing what you can to win and others are actively going against that in a team environment
April 23, 2019 - 23:57
Arrieta's built like a tank, if he and Harper get at it, don't expect a throat grab bitch move like Papelbon did, Arrieta would just straight up clock Harper.
