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'd rather get kicked in the dick than listen to this Costas *******.
Was Costas ever good?
jesus costas is a worthless turd
the Yankees regular announcers are so bad I actually prefer him. He sucks and I wish he'd shut up but it's still good to have a change.
I'd take Kay every single time over Costas. He sounds like a badly tuned AI at this point and doesn't know where to put the inflections or even if he should put them. Hell, I'd rather listen to Sterling on his last ride with Waldman over Costas and they're really bad.

well after that.
well played good sir!
That was very Sterling like.
stop showing Mahomes, who gives a ****
padres got no one to blame but themselves if they can't close this out against the doyers bullpen committee 2nite
I always thought costas was a crads fan. I guess he jumped on the yankee bandwagon after the crads went to s**t.
one good story I remember about costas in the 1980s when he worked at nbc. he was hosting a nfl postgame show and was supposed to plug some I Dream of Jeanie movie that nbc was putting up against a world series game that was airing on abc that night. he said something like "who am I kidding, none of you are watching this. Enjoy the World Series". I seem to remember he got in trouble with the nbc muckitymucks for that.

that's pretty funny actually. he should have quit on top like Constanza.
raise your hand if you had Stanton as the Yankees savior

These bullpens have been working hard every game. More runs for both sides at some point.

Oh god no. I'd rather commit seppuku
To be fair, I thought that was a hit, but maybe it was just the camera angle. Seemed to take a really weird trajectory, but Costas also has the view at the ballpark that we don't have.
Wonder what the most pitchers ever used in a shutout is.
9 in Cleveland on Sept 17, 2016 vs the Tigers
6 for a no-no which happened twice
Costas is an elite studio guy
He is an all-world terrible announcer
stanton hitting everything now
Clase attempt #2
