The real thing starts tomorrow. And by real thing I mean Antetokounmpo to Antetokounmpo preseason 4th qtr garbage minutes, letsss gooooo

Believing Mark is openly cheering for the Dodgers in 7 so he gets his 4 home games but gets off the hook for rings, parties, parades, and increased payroll. Small market baseball, babyyyyy

Well shit.

The laugh from my couch when BA said the next 3 up, haha. Oh lordy

Sweet. Now your closer has this over his head for the rest of this (short) series. Awful night all around

I really can't believe the Brewers are going to win this game they've lost 3 different times now. What a season, what a team

And then you have to fight for a salary floor and how many perpetual cheap asses in ownership are taking that. Another nasty baseball labor fight, nobody does it like them

Alrite, dammit, now make them sweat just a little. Please. For the love of God get in the damn fight.

Patchwork pitching a whole series against this lineup feels like it'll take some miracles to get around. And *then* you have to figure out how you're scoring yourself. Yikes.

This series is definitely as lopsided as I feared but didn't have the courage to just outright say. It'll be a massive massive hill to climb.

That play, top of the order, and just barely competitive. Damn

I'm intrigued by the Florida Gator fan getting a tattoo for his team each year seemingly seeing their logo for the very first time in that commercial. Actually no that checks out

Brewers trying to make Blake Snell take one on the chin but it won't be easy

The best looking athlete at the school is the mascot, there's some suspension of belief!

The Brewers can certainly win the series, and they should believe they can in that clubhouse, but anyone who isn't making the case that the defending champion and unparalleled payroll Dodgers aren't an overwhelming favorite is being disingenuous. Come on now.

Someone's gotta talk me outta 45 wins. I'm not sure I care how many kids they play. Or their half bench. Or the Fox injury. Or that they're in the west. They do play the east 30 times. And *those* guys, the *hims*, kinda roll outta bed with 45, right?? Leap year Spurs?? Everything says no, except:

But the Scarlet Letter gave us Easy A and for that we're thankful

If you really cared about him you'd hook him up with your development staff and start giving him the tools to go pro in something other than sports

I can't believe I didn't immediately clock this as the Bucks signing him. I just figured they can't. They're trying to win. I really dropped the ball. I'm an idiot.

Another Dalton classic. He's paid by the team at this point.

Would love to call! But my team's two ways are reserved for make a wish brothers who can't play basketball but want to feel included. Oh well! Go Bucks!

This is "own the libs" for sports. I love it. This time.

They don't feel like they have the space/luxury of 45 wins and mining a trade chip, 48 is more important to them this season. And I don't blame them. It's just shitty. I compared it this morn to going into the transfer portal to save your job. It's just not a way to live even if it works for a year

They aren't keeping any development guys because sometimes 45 wins with a kid or two is a win but they are going to wring every single win they can out of the season. Im not sure any of those guys has a future, but we'll never know here. They'll have 1!

My issue w most reporting is he doesn't want to leave Mke, if he did, he'd've left. He wants Mke to win. Some things happened to make that more difficult. But there's time to get enough right to keep it together, make another run. But own goals that keep making it more difficult piss me the fuck off

I think AJax has a place in a different org, too. He's a tough fit but it's out there

I had made peace w TA, which is also stupid, but this is bullshit. This feels like a thing you do when you want to be traded, tbh. Keep asking for dumber and dumber things until they get tired of placating. Except the whole org partakes in bullshit w him. So it's probably just general incompetence

Unfucking serious whenever they can turn a corner

I actually am angry about this Alex thing. I am angry that their development staff has a child who's been there since the Bud days of non-development and a couple of the coach's kids. And I'm angry they're wasting a spot that could unearth the next AJ Green or Rollins or Nance for this shit, too
