bawfuls posted:He just completed his big payday (4 yrs $64M) and the perception at the time he signed that was he took a slightly below-market deal to stay in LA. He not only reached his peak performance as a Dodger but he grew up in Long Beach rooting for the team. He has long been considered a leader in that clubhouse and the emotional core of these recent teams. I actually kind of hope they don't bring him back, what he did last night was seriously bullshit

The Saints provided a unique experience even within the context of being minor league baseball. MLB will probably sanitize the product, sadly

I have to imagine that along with those who think it's a liberal hoax, there's probably a ton of MLBers who are antivax. I bet most of them don't get the shot at all. I also don't believe MLB had any actual covid protocol last season so I'm expecting plenty more outbreaks this season lol

I mean I basically agree with you guys on that, but it's a very cynical, nihilistic agreement I still don't think the players will be vaccinated before ST or probably even the regular season tho, considering there's no plan for making it happen and it needs to be happening like right now UZR IS BULLSHIT fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Jan 5, 2021 |

Seems like all those Arizona mayors just want cover to open up Spring Training to fans, but they already don't give a gently caress about having packed bars and restaurants so I don't really understand what they think they're accomplishing

IcePhoenix posted:Did you misread the dollar figure as Yen instead of Dollars? Tanaka being the highest paid player in NPB makes sense to me. For some reason I thought he was way older and figured he was going on a retirement tour. Apologies to the goon I quoted, that really is a damning sign of the owners priorities.

Lol introducing both ties and expanded playoffs would be a crime against the sport. You'd have teams making the playoffs with 75 wins

Speaking of The Show, I bought 20 last year, the first time I'd bought a sports video game since the 2K era on Dreamcast. Will last years version keep up with this years roster moves? I'm assuming no

Chamale posted:I wonder if you can quantify the value of taking longer at-bats (other than the impact of more walks and strikeouts). We know that tired pitchers perform worse, although that has to be untangled from the times-through-order penalty. Pitches per plate appearance was definitely a hot poo poo stat back when analytics was called sabermetrics

bawfuls posted:Cricket is the perfect sport for people who bemoan the increase in home runs and long for the days of small-ball and great defensive plays. There are way more balls in play and fielding without gloves is aesthetically impressive. Alternatively, if you're a NEVER BUNT HIT DINGERS person, you can watch Big Bash League or other T20 competitions. Truly a sport for everyone

Why in the gently caress would all that come out in a speech to the Rotary Club? Do I just have no idea what the gently caress the Rotary Club is??
