They were going to wear the tops used in the late 70's with the collars, looked like a softball top.

This is seriously the most bizarre sports story ever.

I agree, seems only fitting that the game ended up a tie.

Overreaction for sure, but at the same time I don't see why they couldn't just move the throwback jerseys to a different game, if he really felt uncomfortable. Just looking at that collar or remembering some of the wider cut uniforms, I could see how a pitcher might feel uncomfortable with part of the jersey flapping around, either in his neck/face area or his arms, throwing off his rhythm/motion or just messing with his concentration. So to me thats something that might be more than just a superstition and since they could have easily have avoided it by moving it to another game, when he didn't pitch, I don't see why they had to escalate it. In the end they should be willing to put him in the best spot to perform at his highest level...

Atlanta Braves Reportedly Have Interest In Chicago White Sox' Chris Sale.

The Atlanta Braves have interest in acquiring Chicago White Sox ace Chris Sale, according to SB Nation's Chris Cotillo. The report comes as a surprise, considering the Braves are one of the worst teams in baseball, but could suggest they want to make true on their hopes of being a playoff contender in the next few years.

The White Sox have been fielding numerous calls on the AL Cy Young candidate, and are reportedly asking for around 5 top prospects, which one could argue is a king's ransom. However, the Braves have quietly developed their prospect pool, thanks to a few years of good drafting and tearing down their big club in favor of prospects. Some names the White Sox may be interested in are infielders Dansby Swanson and Ozzie Albies, pitchers Kolby Allard and Sean Newcomb, and even the inclusion of MLB players like Julio Teheran and Mallex Smith.

Sale, 27, is a five-time all-star, and is 14-3 this season, with a 3.18 ERA. Despite these impressive numbers, his strikeout rates are way down (from 11.8 K/9, to just 8.7 K/9) and his K/BB rate (4.45) is the lowest it has been since the White Sox made him a full time major league starter in 2012. Despite this, his controllability, along with his sustained success in Chicago, has teams salivating at the chance to have him lead their staff for the extended future.

In addition to interest from the Braves, there are reports the Texas Rangers could be pursuing a deal, as well the documented interest of the Boston Red Sox. The Los Angeles Dodgers also have the prospect depth to make a move for Sale if they pleased. Sale has been scratched from his next start, but it is reportedly for a team issue, and not for an impending trade.

No thank you
