Dog Faced JoJo posted:Is it just selective memory or has this sort of fire sale of "slightly better than marginal talent" never happened at the playoff roster deadline before? A few years ago, you'd have basically everyone on waivers which would then lead to August trades. August trades are dead now so I guess teams that know they are dead just tossing their pending free agents onto the waiver wire is the new meta. mcmagic posted:He CAN go anywhere.

Ohtani gave a good chunk of his career to an organization that couldn't build a winner with him and Mike Trout on the roster, he doesn't owe them or their fans anything beyond all the good play they already got Angels fans should point their anger at where it belongs (which, to their credit, they seem to be doing). Players don't care about this sort of thing very much and definitely shouldn't let it get in the way of a good shot at a title or the bag.

I don't mind the Dodgers or the Mariners or anyone really. In fact I kinda hope Ohtani leaves because it'll make it easier for me to not care about this stupid team.

the only intracity rivalry is cubs/sox, these fans genuninely loving hate each other because both teams sucked so bad for so long and got owned in every meaningful game they played for a century to they have to resort to getting mad about the equally lovely team across town and every single time these teams play there's one of those dumb asscrack guy fights in the bleachers, doesn't matter what park it's at.

If a beloved Cub went to the Sox I wouldn't be mad, I would be genuinely sad for them.

Jays nearly pulled a NOBLETIGER which seems just about right for how things have gone this season FG gave their odds at 48% this morning but the AL West schedules are tissue paper soft. It feels like it has to be worst than that ETA: those « give Manoah a chance » starts are really going to bite us hard Isentropy fucked around with this message at 04:05 on Aug 30, 2023 |

Oh I agree, it's nice to finally get some of the Brewers' bullshit luck for a change. I do think they're better than their run differential but they also consistently play with a horseshoe shoved up their rear end.

The Padres are now 0-11 in extra inning games this season. How is that even possible lmao They're also on their way to having the worst record in one run games for a season since 1935.
