Breaking news: baseball commissioner Rob Manfred has vetoed the US/Russia prisoner swap that would have brought home Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich. Manfred ruled that the deal was finalized after the July 30 trade deadline, so before he can be traded, Russia first needs to put Gershkovich on waivers and see if any other country wants to claim him. Another blow for US general manager Joe Biden; the guy just can't catch a break.
