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!
hot take: freeman is in the zone right now
Walking a guy with a broken arm probably not the best strategy.
In 10 World Series at bats big dumb idiot has 7 strikeouts
4 pitch walk to the 9 hitter
then begging on a 3-2 pitch way outside which is just pathetic.
Oh well at least Cole is well rested after those grueling 88 pitches he threw the other day.
if nothing else, cortes owns ohtani
what a meatball judge missed
Crowd pimpin' that pop-up to shallow LF was lulz.
Stanton has one of the ugliest swings I have ever seen. Not aesthetically appealing at all.
in what world is stanton gonna be safe there.
amazing.
lol sending slow ass stanton
hes so slow
Teoscar seems like a fun guy to have on your team.
This would be a lot more fun if the Yankees weren't playing the Dodgers. Yeah, sure, F the Yankees. But F the Dodgers also.
Smoltz seems to think that getting hit by a pitch, stealing second, and then scoring on a single is the physical equivalent of going fifteen rounds with Joe Frazier.
Aaron Judge Batting Average 2024 postseason: .140
Lou Gehrig Batting Average in 1939 with ALS: .143
no shutout moral victory!
Judge clearly GOAT.imo
I just feel so bad the Yankees have to lose as home.
Also, **** both those crybaby teams.
Chisolm 4th
Stanton 5th haha
