Bank posted:I've mostly been watching MLB for Ohtani but he got me into watching some other players as well. The whole situation kinda sucks. From what I gather he just wants to pitch and hit his best, and the Angels want to keep him as long as possible, so they'll let him do whatever he wants, even if it means he potentially injures himself. I really don't know how he didn't shut it down for the season after the UCL tear. The Angels were already long-shots to make the playoffs. No reason to to possibly get more injured. Some guys just want to keep playing though.

Salvor_Hardin posted:I wish Gunnar Henderson didn't exist because Triston Casas deserves to win a ROTY. Casas really shouldn't have sucked for the first couple months of the season if he wanted to be RotY. That said, he's been a real encouraging bright spot in the depressing fizzle that's been late august.

cant decide what birdland doomer vibes to focus on today are we going to collapse while the Rays steal the division? are we gonna have orioles magic for real and Angelos completely somehow poo poo all over it? who knows! i will say being 3.5 vs 2.5 up in the division feels like a 200% difference though

Think bigger! Ending the “not getting swept” streak by getting straight bounced from the wild card series/ALDS.

Consider the real doomer posting, trading World Series MVP Gunnar Henderson to the Rays because they need a shortstop and poor John Angelos can't afford him after his ROTY bonuses. E: For real though being up 3.5 with less than a month to go and the only real threat being the 4 game series with the Rays later this month definitely has me thinking that this group is going to surprise a lot of folks in the postseason and I am extremely ready to stress out over every single game.

That would require the Rays to be willing to spend money too, though. What you SHOULD do is trade him to the little ol' Minnesota Twins.

Next year when both Maldy and Dusty are gone is going to be so normal. The Astros fandom conspiracy theory I've been seeing is that this is because Diaz was part of the package with the Guards that sent Dusty's favorite speedy, non-hitting CF away. He hates it when CFs can hit, which is why Chas doesn't get as much PT as he's earned. zoux fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Sep 5, 2023 |

I’m rooting for the Yankees tonight but have developed a cosmology where I hope they lose against every team with a shot at the wild card so to better diminish the Astros’ shot at the postseason. They have 4 against Boston and 6 against Toronto for the rest of the season. That’s 10 games to gently caress the Astros from afar after a hilarious spoiler sweep. Also losing 10 to those teams means a better chance that Hal either sells the team or fires Cashman. Is this vindictive? Yes but gently caress the Astros and Texas in general.
