17 teams on Jonathan Papelbon's no-trade list revealed.

Here it is. On his list is the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks? Seems Tony La Russa and company have made some good signings lately.

Pretty interesting. It’s not exactly a list of terrible teams. Yankees, Dodgers, Rangers, Blue Jays, O’s, Pirates, Giants - who knows what he’s got against them.

Well, I can understand not wanting to npme on the Yankees.

As a Yankee fan, I’m thrilled to see New York on that douchebag’s list.

He’s sure got a hard-on for the NL west. If you were going to choose one team in that division I can’t imagine why it would be the pads.

As a Mariner fan, I’m horrified to not see Seattle on that douchebag’s list. Now he’ll probably come here and stab Felix.

Whew. Cleveland is avoiding another John Rocker situation.

A 17 franchise deep sigh of relief.

As are the Rangers. he was even less fun in Texas.

Odd list. It’s not based on teams’ records, it’s not based on geography or even specific cities. Maybe those are the teams that he thinks wouldn’t put up with his shit?

Exactly the first thing I thought of. :smiley:

I can’t understand why he’d exclude Toronto. That was his chance to be the first player in MLB history to strangle both MVPs.
