2024 MLB Season Thread
Nobody wants these games to start more than Mannfred.
Shohei just spoke to the media for the first time. In a prepared statement, he said:
-He never bet on baseball, or any other sport,
-He didn't know that Ippei lied to him, and that Ippei took the money from Shohei's account to pay his gambling debts
-He'll continue to cooperate with the investigation, and play as the investigation plays out.
If all that's true, then this is probably the best possible outcome for his reputation going forward. He's a naive star athlete who trusted the wrong person. It happens.
In any event, these games are about start! Last year, just like we all predicted, "Someone Else" came on strong in the playoffs, as the Texas Rangers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks for the World Series. Can that happen again?
T-Mobile is giving away a free MLB.tv subscription ($149 value) to T-Mobile subscribers starting TOMORROW (Tuesday 3/26 - April 1). Don't miss out.
So speaking of gambling, here are the current best odds for the World Series you can find, from Vegas insider!
Rangers play Cubs tonight, off tomorrow, Cubs Saturday and Sunday. WTF is that about? I thought maybe the Sweet 16 games were next door, but nope, they’re in Dallas.
If the Rangers' Thursday Opening Day game was rained out, it can be immediately rescheduled for Friday. That guarantees people who bought Opening Day tickets actually get to attend Opening Day. (unless it rains again)
That's especially important for a World Series wining team.
Rangers have a roof now, that works.
Lol the Rangers got screwed
Foul or swing/miss to be reviewable from tomorrow
How the **** is that not reviewable, lol?
Justice for the Heim
Anyone like the new purple color for In Play, Out(s) on GameDay? Kinda takes away the suspense of seeing the blue circle.
Arizona might win the WS tonight.
Braves bat around in the 8th
Putting Philly fans on notice, as to who still runs this division
3 K’s for Harper
EAT ****
Rhys Hoskins is obviously dirty, but still funny.
Luckboxing small sample sizes happens.
I’d rather prove which team is better over 162 games, and then keep running it back in the playoffs.
Rhys is a coward. They all are but Jeff was screaming at him while he was laying there and he pretended not to notice until he was well away and with his teammates.
Dbacks keepin it up. **** the rest of the West.
Settle down Francis. Your playing the Rockies. 😃
Interested in following Jordan Montgomery this year. Word from the talking heads in DFW was that the baseball Anti-Christ Scott Boris was trying to get him a 5 to 6 year deal for ~30 million per. Obviously that didn't happen.
I love the guy. He pitched well down the stretch and in the playoffs. But for his career, he's just a guy. Not worth ace contracts. Glad y'all got him. He's definitely an asset.
Well, considering we had a literal bullpen game in the World Series, adding "just a guy" into the mix is ok by me. 2/50 max, I'm fine with. Not my money!
