I feel like publicly talked about the dementia test you take every couple weeks is a sign of dementia

It’s never happening for any baseball team that’s been based in Seattle

A bummer of an ending but really impressive that a AAA team made it to the NLCS

Shockingly really good players are pretty impervious to Brewer Bullshit

It’s called the contact play because it PREVENTS you from winning

Ok I see, for the record these are very good to excellent traits

Just to be clear
You are saying these are bad traits/beliefs for a fan to have

When they try to come for Curt

The Dodgers paid Blake Snell, who made all of 11 starts this year, $27.5MM.

The issue isn’t just the gross amount of money these pitchers make. It’s that the Dodgers are the only team willing and able to afford paying so much for guys who only play half a season, at best.

15.10.2025 13:23 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

The Brewers had 6 pitchers make a combined 130 starts this season. In total, those 6 pitchers made around $20MM in salary.

The Dodgers paid Tyler Glasnow, who’s never made more than 22 starts in a single season and who made all of 18 this year, $32.5MM this season.

I’m as down on the team as anybody but even I don’t think they should be taken to jail for this

What does that mean
They are making $30 million per year, and only a couple teams are willing to pay that

WHAT DO WE WANT
A salary cap with a series of escalating luxury tax penalties akin to what they have in the NBA
WHEN DO WE WANT IT
Now, but recognizing that’s not possible I guess in 2027

On the bright side at least the Brewers get to cite that awful at bat in Turang’s arbitration hearing

As I’ve been saying for years baseball needs a hard salary cap and the owners should lock the players out for as long as it takes to get one

Listen if the pitcher gets to use those tendency cheat sheets now I think it’s only fair that we get to put the strobe effect on the ribbon boards so it’s harder for him to read

Two pitches for a ball that clearly would’ve been overturned to a strike with the challenge system
If these are the good umps, how bad are the bad ones
