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!
They're gonna have to change the rules. One time through order max now with infinite mfers throwing 102 and sweepers that have their own gravitational constants.
Stanton was doing a bit of slugging this year. 27 dingers and 20 doubles with a little over 2/3rds of the season played. It's a shame he couldn't be the slugger he was before with Judge and Soto ... would that be the greatest slugging trio of the modern game? It goes under what could have been though.
I mean I’m down for either
I just can’t stomach the 2 matchups with the yanks playing for it all

a living god battling the most successful sports franchise in the observable universe for all the marbles is as inevitable as our lord and savior Trump becoming King Emperor

Carpenter late as **** on those two fouls
Wow

guardian pitchers drawing some kind of energy from their weird facial hair
Yankees are ****ed
Wow that pitch took balls

Granted I’m not terribly familiar with guardians baseball but it seems bizarre/not great that their 100 mph closer gets less than a k/inning
