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!
I can’t see the Yankees getting him
1. They’re going to pay bigly for Soto if they even keep him at all
2. If they lose Soto they aren’t a desirable destination at all for a guy who can’t make megabucks on his first deal
Guessing Mets, Doyers or Phillies
So at what point do we just give up on the idea of baseball? Do these *********** have to get Soto too or is snell enough?
This is that point.
They’re not gonna get Soto. I’m leaning Red Sox right now. Dodgers don’t need him anyway. Just resign Teo.
Doyers Dynasty ugh
