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!
A stand up double for Stanton is an inside the park HR for a healthy Elly De La Cruz.
Tigazz are F'ed. Onward to game 5.
TBS has an awful camera angle just to get an ad on the screen. WTF.
if the Yankees close it out tonight, do they move the Guardians-Tigers game 5 from 4:38pm to 8:08pm?
stanton my man
either fight for real (won't happen) or gtfo the field
If you knock out another baseball player in a fight that should count as a run on the scoreboard and RBI for the puncher.
Great success!
only saw the 9th inning of NYY-KC...
apparently plate discipline is not a thing with KC?
Apparently putting the barrel of a bat on a baseball is not a thing for KC
Citing a chance of inclement weather, Major League Baseball moved the start time of Saturday's decisive Game 5 of the AL Division Series between Detroit and Cleveland from 8:08 p.m. to a 1:08 p.m start.

For the Yankees and Mets, those roads rarely converge this time of year. In the 55 seasons of LCS play, this will be just the third to feature both the Yankees and Mets. You might remember the others: 1999, when only the Yankees won, and 2000, when New York City had the World Series all to itself.

So yes, neither the Yankees nor the Mets even know who their next opponents will be, so it probably makes little sense to start thinking about a Subway Series right now.
You know what?
Let’s start thinking about it anyway.
lol
gonna be fun regardless
Christ almighty please spare us Doyers v Yankees
Much as I despise the Doyers 102 to end the 8th is pretty savage
RIP Padres
Save us, Detroit
‘Are we live?’
‘We’re live’
‘The fact that we don’t give a ****’
I hate this team so much
