Good morning. Last night I wrote about the big trade of the weekend. That's right, Tyler Mahle has been assigned exactly 1.0 Kremer Units, which makes him a good pickup for the Braves. As for the Giants... I was less kind to the Giants.

San Francisco Giants trade RHP Tyler Mahle to the Atlanta Braves for RHP Anthony Molina. Although heaven knows who Tyler Mahle even is, anymore. Then man has worn so many caps, thrown with so many arm...

Morning, all. Since the offseason is winding down, @ginnysearle.bsky.social, @cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com and I took a moment to look at which teams forgot to turn in their homework. Also, I made up a woman named Marge who's going to die in the next eight months, and felt bad for her.

Baseball Prospectus@baseballprospectus.com · 10mo agoBanging the Drum by Ginny Searle (@ginnysearle.bsky.social) www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...
the wild card round rarely saw Game 3s, but this year there are three of them. @ginnysearle.bsky.social is on the case (and previews our ALWC G3 matchups: www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...
![Listen to me. We don’t have much time. Rob Manfred is the reason this is all happening. He has compromising information on the most senior executives of the Red Sox, Tigers, Cubs, and Dodgers, and he’s not afraid to use it. I’m talking like, really heinous stuff, the sort of shit these guys would just never, ever come back from. No, not crimes, obviously, way worse (meaning, more damaging to future job prospects). He’s got pictures of all these guys in off-brand athleisure. I’m not even talking lulu, Manfred’s got these guys dead to rights in discount-color separates from Target, Kohl’s, and, even, in the case of one particularly embarrassed mid-40s white man, Old Navy.
I know, shocking. So, you wanna know who the Manfred Man is? Every single one of these gentlemen, and when the commissioner says we can’t have another year with four two-game sweeps in the Wild Card Series, well, they’re yours.
[A door bangs open]
HEL-lo commissioner, how are you? Us? Oh, we were just talking about the 2025 Postseason Picture, presented by Adobe, the best way to graphically represent and understand the road to the 2025 World Series, presented by Capital One and exclusively on FOX. What a dazzling bit of success for the Wild Card Series, almost as big as the STRAUSS logos featured prominently on every batting helmet!
[Editor’s Note: This introduction was written before the Dodgers game finished last night, obviously disproving the hypothesis in the introduction. Rest assured, BP does not claim that Rob Manfred pressured teams to lose to bring balance to the new playoff format, and the fact that a five-page spread was published this morning depicting various Los Angeles executives in ill-fitting Kirkland Signature windbreakers incorrectly monogrammed with the middle initial in the center is clearly coincidental. BP asks that you respect the families of those mortified executives at this time.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:m2tdiw6yphtre6p6m6skgzo6/bafkreifgzvg4xt3wabpvhyl2a4eqx7zasll5uxbxegck3fmmemqkol63g4)
