FlamingLiberal posted:Josh Donaldson is retiring What was weird was how people thought the A's were acquiring the rear end in a top hat in the deal when they got Lawrie in the Donaldson trade but, as it turns out, they were both loving assholes.

more falafel please posted:Dollar dog Wednesdays though. The Sox should give out free tickets if you show proof of buying a plane/bus/train ticket to Chicago the same week. Just try to make whatever they can on concessions and merch sold at the ballpark.

chilihead posted:Wow,i'm surprised. Not that they would re-acquire Duvall, but they must be hesitant about Kelenic. I understand platoons but it seems like the solution was already in house. Anyhow, Duvall will always go crazy about one month a year so totally worth it. I feel like the Rockies and Angels are completely hopeless so long as they remain under their current ownership.

STAC Goat posted:Just discovered second game of the season will be on Apple TV. Now I'm all mad. Are they continuing to use that incredibly loving stupid statistical system made by people who think sss batter v. pitcher matchup data is a good predictor of future results?

more falafel please posted:If you haven't listened to the Effectively Wild episode where they interview the CEO of the company that supplies those odds, you should. It's unhinged and they honestly could have been way more hostile https://blogs.fangraphs.com/effectively-wild-episode-1853-what-are-the-odds/ That's where I got that from. They really wanted to help that CEO out in the beginning until they realized the company's entire premise for their odds-making system was wrong.

Captain Log posted:There has to be some bullshit like that going on. There is no way five good to excellent players all got dick. I think it was just the penalties they put on themselves for the luxury tax as a way to enforce a silent collusion. They also incentivized teams to go ahead and promote young players instead of continuing to take chances on vets who are, in the short term, always more expensive. Owners are very much all about the short term.

Penisaurus Sex posted:Don't know if it's specifically to gently caress with Boras but it's very clear that baseball's ownership has come to a decision -- as a group -- that labor costs need to go down. I think we can say Boras, and agents like him, have helped cause this but it's also not like they did anything to harm the game. At the end of the day, the game has been harmed because owners are now applying fintech bro thinking to the game and it's going to be bad for the game, in the long run. Literally every industry I can think of has decided that the only way left to inflate profits is by demanding less workers do more work for less money.
