Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
Braves just outrighted David Fletcher who honestly seemed like a useful enough piece if you’re gonna be spending the money anyway, maybe something else going on who knows.

Looks like it's just freeing up a 40 man slot atm unless some other team is dumb enough to take his entire salary

I don't want to fight over this, but your list only aligns with the data if you sort by property crime. If you sort by violent crime totals, San Francisco is 37, Los Angeles is 32, and Chicago is 17.

If you sort by violent crime, it does at least show which city definitely has the worst fans

They had a bunch of slots already, only 35 with Fletcher. I dunno, guess the procedural stuff doesn’t have to make total sense.

If they were winning 100 games every year this wouldn't be an issue for most free agents

But it is very funny that chud culture war perceptions are hurting the Giants ability to recruit stars

This probably.

Every week there's a new story about some celebrity getting their Encino home robbed. I think it happened to Puig alone like four times.

Are the Dodgers incentivized to kill Ohtani after his first ten years? I assume the $68 million a year in deferments has a clause that transfers the money to his heirs.

If the personnel change happened (for example) after Year 3 and Otani leaves because of it, does he still get the first 3 years of deferrals?

I got a taste for blown saves

Unless there's language to let him still collect the deferred money this can't possibly happen

e: If baseball players cared about the actual city then the Padres would have a constant influx of stars without having to overpay
