The structural differences between the leagues are all gone now. It's one unified umpiring crew, the DH is universal, etc.

Sorry, not phrasing this well. Oh also people knocking Dodger Stadium, this press conference is taking place behind the centerfield wall which used to be like the Thunderdome during a game but is now quite pleasant and my daughter enjoys watching the game on the playground you can climb on. The way they've turned it into a whole 360 experience is quite nice.

Park factors are also much less extreme now than they were 50 or 80 years ago.

Speaking about public transportation to the ballpark, the last time the wife and I went to Oracle Park, we took CalTrain to the end of the line which is a couple of blocks away from the ballpark. Was super cheap and way more convenient than trying to find parking or paying $60 to park or some crap like that. Plus they allow you to drink on the train, so we bought a 6 pack of beer and chugged them on the way up. I hope they find some way to get light rail into Chavez Ravine, because goddamn that place is impossible to get in and out of on gamedays.

Offering Glasnow playing time escalators is also cheating because he will never reach them.

PLEASE SEE KERSHAW, CLAYTON and LYNN, LANCE's starts from the 2023 NLDS. "However, the wheels fell off in the third inning when the Diamondbacks put on a Home Run Derby. Geraldo Perdomo started the barrage with a leadoff solo shot, and later came by blasts from Ketel Marte and Christian Walker. Gabriel Moreno then hit a ball down the line which was initially ruled a home run before being called a foul ball and upheld with replay. At the moment, it seemed like a much-needed break for the Dodgers, but that feeling was short-lived as Moreno blasted a home run on Lynn’s next pitch. In total, Lynn gave up four home runs in the inning, and the Dodgers never recovered. Although manager Dave Roberts said he planned to approach the matchup like it was Game 7 and have more urgency, he instead left Lynn on the mound to put the Dodgers in another early hole." You get a tantalizing glimpse of the Dodgers other postseason problem from the graf above. MaoistBanker fucked around with this message at 02:27 on Dec 15, 2023 |

The Lance Lynn trade is one of the most baffling decisions I've seen the Dodgers FO make. He sucked all year what did they think would happen in October?

They should have traded for Montgomery but that rotation was so decimated one more starter wasn't going to move the needle.

The concession options are also greatly improved for the outfield in general. I've always loved blue heaven but it's finally starting to live up to it's reputation, at least for the first time in a long while.

If Yamamoto breaks the bank and the Mariners are serious about trading a starter I wonder what a fair deal for Luis Castillo would be. Seems like he'd be easier to square on a deal than Gilbert and worth more than Woo/Miller.
