[Passan] The Los Angeles Dodgers are acquiring superutilityman Cavan Biggio in a trade from the Toronto Blue Jays, sources tell ESPN. Biggio, 29, was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays last week. He’s hitting .200/.323/.291 this year and .227/.343/.382 for his career.

Japanese tabloid reporting that Dodgers has revoked press pass for two major TV networks for their reports on Shohei’s new home

Source: https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/99eb032d523d68590f807cf60b7d5548c2efa323

The two networks are Fuji TV and Nippon TV. They are one of the six national TV networks and a lot of programming involves pro sports. The tabloid reports states that the networks are also banned by Shohei’s management company from using Shohei’s past footage. Nippon TV was reportedly supposed to use some footage with Shohei in it for their program earlier this month but had to replace it.

The tabloid report also states that Shohei was really mad at the networks because they both reported on his alleged new home in LA in depth like its location and neighborhood and they even went around interviewing neighbors.

IMO, both networks totally deserve this. I think Fuji TV deserves even more severe punishment for interviewing Shohei’s neighbors when Dekopin made his first TV appearance during Shohei’s MVP announcement last year. Japanese media really needs to give Shohei’s private life a break. I really don’t need to know where he lives or what he does during his off days. He is doing plenty on the field and that’s all l’m interested in about him.

[Passan] Right-handed reliever Braydon Fisher is headed back to the Blue Jays for Cavan Biggio, a source tells ESPN. He has split his time between AA and AAA this season and has a 5.68 ERA and 30 strikeouts and 15 walks in 19 innings, with a fastball that sits in the low to mid 90s.

Cal Quantrill in his last 8 starts: 6-1, lowered his ERA from 5.34 to 3.30, lowered FIP from 5.92 to 4.33, 39K, 16 BB. Total season: 9th in BWAR at 2.4 among pitchers

Analysis

He’s having an unbelievable season. Given he’s only pitched two games at Coors in that timeframe and doesn’t really pitch anymore than 6-7 or so innings, but he’s completely had a turnaround from his last year in Cleveland.
