  1. Look he's nothing special but he made it to the majors, in no world can that be considered a bad career.
  2. I'm targeting 10-6 from the next 5 series, would leave us in a great position for the division and the 1 seed.
  3. https://x.com/TalkinYanks/status/1954285259819815150?t=s937hvjJp2ZKxYyIZJuikA&s=19 Turning into the summer of Trent
  4. Can someone explain to me what I'm missing here because I really don't see it?
  5. Don't mistake that for a passionate defense of ownership greed. I just don't see where the players have any percent responsibility as was said elsewhere.
  6. It's the second door phenomenon, because Jansen is more or less a known quantity and we haven't yet seen Areinamo at this level people (myself included) will tend overrate the prospect by pinning them to the maximum outcome as opposed to the most likely one ie. If he even makes it he probably performs not too dissimilar from Jansen, in the grand scheme of things.
  7. https://x.com/Joelsherman1/status/1949957194067177516?t=WsyS_miqyPzmtH2sQ0dJWw&s=09 Jansen and Cash to us, Areinamo to them.
  8. I'm sure Mark would greet Yelich telling him to lower concession prices with immediate action. It's funny, we'll never see it because owners are too old to actually be the product but if they suddenly became players.......perspective change.
  9. The next time the players are consulted on setting concessions prices will be the first time.
  10. Of course they do and under normal circumstances it's not a problem but when you bring in the specific dynamics surrounding unions it becomes another matter. I worked in management for a company where at the time we were trying to get the employees to dissolve the union, there were never conversations where we lobbied the members and union representatives weren't present. I think it's inappropriate for those types to conversations to take place when I assume the union wasn't given the opportunity to have someone present. To your other point, I hear you but also the description of market size is nebulous to me anyway. Let's take the NBA for example, since 2000 the only titles not won by top 20 metros are San Antonio (likely to be top 20 by 2030 and the 7th largest city in the country currently), Cleveland, Milwaukee, and OKC. If we shift San Antonio to the other bucket it's 21 from 24 (excluding Toronto) in the top 20. It's also 17 that are top 14 metros or bigger. NFL is a little more slanted because of KC but it's still 15 of 25 are top 20 metros and its 17 of 25 if you extend to top 22 with Baltimore. I just don't believe that a salary cap would make baseball any less slanted, the teams are primarily in bigger markets, the top 3 cities have 20% of the teams and the top 10 metros have 43% and the top 20 have 66%.
  11. I think it's a net positive to have stars in baseball willing to stand up to lodge complaint with the Commissioner coming into the locker room to try to scare tactic the players into accepting a salary cap which I believe will only serve to improve already inflated asset values for hundred millionaires and billionaires. It would be easy for someone who has already made their pile to sit their quietly and let everyone else worry about themselves. Do they let star players walk into owner meetings to counter program?
  12. https://x.com/JeffPassan/status/1949860016246100243?t=-UhzZKk_UdZ62Hny_dqZNQ&s=19 Good for Bryce, more players need to take this stand.
  13. See but we don't have to ignore Skenes stats in favor of a much smaller sample size because we already know what he did. I think everyone here loves Miz, it's no shade on him, but 5 starts aside the additional price on our end would be significant, specifically because of his small sample.
  14. Well seen LaViolette to us a bunch so let's see.
  15. Go back and read the draft threads from 2021 and 2022 to get a feel for how some on this board felt about our FO and scouting operations.
  16. Seeing a lot of 'The All Star Game has lost all meaning now' as though 2002 didn't happen, apparently. Good for the kid, this is obviously a buzz play by MLB and by the way they should do more of it considering the struggles they've had for decades now. Promote all the young stars you can.
  17. Reaaaaally hoping it's not Julio Urias.
  18. He was right but how'd he call the first 2 strikes and not the 3rd one? All in the same spot. Unreal consistency on an already poor strike zone.
  19. Not gonna lie, between Ueck and this news, I think I'm good on baseball for a long while.
