Most likely Varland never becomes anything wherever he ends up. There's a reason he was a rule 5 pick. The vast majority of rule 5 pick's don't even turn into fringe 4A players.

If the front office hasn't figured this out over the last almost decade, I don't think they will anytime soon. I'll give Arnold some credit for going and getting Winker and Anderson and actually making somewhat of an effort to improve the offense but the results are just more of the same. -
It's not all phones that are distracting people. Most new vehicles have so much tech in them they basically are phones themselves. I've been driving our van for almost 4 years and I still don't know how to do things quickly and without looking like changing the station and adjusting the temperature because I have to push that button to get to this screen and then slide this bar. Just simple things like that make me a less of an attentive driver than my phone does.

His final numbers are probably going to look pretty similar to Todd Helton's and he was a handful of votes from getting in this year so if/when Todd gets in I think that would seal it for Votto.
-
For some reason I was looking up Joey Votto's stats and I had always figured he was a lock for the Hall of Fame but I was surprised by how unimpressive his counting stats are for a guy who's played as long as he has and in a hitters park. He's probably not going to get to 400 homeruns and not come anywhere close to even 2500 hits. The rate stats are probably Hall of Fame worthy and he an an MVP so maybe he gets in.

Are visiting fans going to travel to Mexico City? Nothing to do with crime but that doesn't seem like a trip people are going to make just to watch their team with the long flight and having to deal with international travel.

This is neither "bugging me" nor "not bugging me" but the housing market is crazy. Our neighbors put their house on the market on Friday. They had a few showings on Friday and six on Saturday. They received three offers on Saturday and accepted one of them. I don't know how much they sold it for but they listed it for $70,000 more than they bought it for six years ago despite not having done a thing to actually improve the house.

I hope they keep their minor league team out of the midwest. The weather here sucks for the first month of the season. There's no reason to make your players try to play in sub 40 degree temperatures and snow. I feel the same for major leaguers too.

April fools day was weeks ago.

MLB needs to ban sliding. Too many injuries. Also, probably baserunning too.
-
I was only counting the Warriors and Raiders as the A's haven't officially left yet.
-
I'm not going to claim to be an expert on their situation but it seems like the city was doing little to help keep the team and not just when it comes to publicly funding construction. I believe the A's had a couple different stadium proposals and the city blocked them from even purchasing the land. Obviously it takes two to tango in any deal but it seems like neither side ever really wanted to get anything done. And it certainly doesn't look good for the city of Oakland that they've already let two other major sports franchise leave in the last few years.

No details given but the fact that were suspensions of 6 games and 1 year, both for gambling, is just another example of the NFL's total inconsistency when it comes to suspensions.
-
No. Phil Cuzzi.
-
Surprised no one has mentioned Scherzer being tossed for a "substance" on his glove. Apparently he changed gloves and an MLB official watched him wash his hands between innings and they still tossed him. Also, apparently the umpire who tossed him is the only umpire who has tossed anyone for sticky stuff since they started checking.

What's the proper way to ask why you weren't considered for a job? I applied for a position I think I was a pretty darn good fit for and spent days crafting and polishing the best cover letter I've ever written. I know two of the members of the hiring committee, both of whom have heaped praise of me for the work I've done. With all that I figured I had to be a top candidate. However, I was totally dumbfounded yesterday when I got an email that they offered the position to someone else and I didn't even get an interview. Certainly I want to find out why I wasn't considered for this job but I've applied for so many jobs over the last couple years I thought I would be great for and can't even get an interview it makes me wonder if there's something out there that's scares people off. I've googled my name and all that comes up is obituaries of relatives and stuff my college baseball career. I've gotten 2 speeding tickets, both over 10 years ago, but no criminal record. After being a stay at home parent for 6 years there's a big gap in my work history which I could see as being a detriment. But I filled that time volunteering with a few different organizations and taking leadership roles with them and include that on my resume. So basically, how can I approach the people I know on the committee without sounding angry or bitter about it (even though I am, by the way)?

Hopefully I'm wrong but he feels like Scooter Gennett to me. Plucky, young guy comes up on fire and becomes a fan favorite before crashing down into futility.
-
He was out by a good amount. I don't think any amount of trying harder would have made him safe. Almost seems like the manager is throwing a player under the bus to protect his third base coach. Which is stupid because every fan hates their team's third base coach.

Sports Illustrated has totally gone down the toilet. I've been a subscriber for about 20 years and I always look forward to the preview issues. At one time they were awesome with each team getting a 2 page spread and a breakdown of the whole roster. They've slowly become less and less every year and this year's MLB preview is by far the worst. Each DIVISION gets a few paragraphs and the analysis is terrible as whoever wrote them has apparently only ever heard of batting average and ERA. Of course, the 2023 NFL season has it's own multipage preview in the same issue because why not.
-
Depends. If a Cardinal did this, then no. Otherwise, probably.
-
Umps are in midseason form already.
-
Voit's trade return is nothing. He was available for practically nothing all offseason and even in to spring training before he signed here.
-
Seems like everyone except the Ravens are interested in Jackson this offseason.

The whole tax system is a joke. When I was in college my mom claimed me as a dependent so she could take a big deduction because there was some flooding in the city where I was going to school so I technically lived there. Nevermind the flooding was nowhere near the school and happened over the summer when I wasn't even there.
-
No. But I don't care about any college sports even the tiniest bit.
