I prefer social media that has more baseball, less nazis

everybody wants a salary cap until their favorite team “has” to trade jaylen brown for salary matching and picks and their former title winning team is broken up because they can’t go into the second apron again. you don’t want that shit in baseball man

If you can—and I know you can’t but just try—be normal about this. It doesn’t have to spark atrocious discourse. We can make a better world together, where this isn’t about breaking baseball or a salary cap. It’s just a great team giving up a big package to win one more title as they get old.

Lowkey don’t like the Skubal trade. And I’m hoping they don’t talk him into an extension. The guy is amazing but nothing good long term will come out of putting a guy with two TJ’s into the Dodgers meat grinder pitching machine.

I don’t know which one of y’all started this But whoever started adding that basil to the cocktails I pray you be surrounded by ample lovers

if JT Realmuto did that in Little League, he would earn the nickname “Second Base,” classmates at his 30th high school reunion would be like “yo, Second Base, how ya been” and tell the story again and each time JT would fake laugh and then get behind the wheel of his lifted F150 and cry like a baby

I did a long research piece on this specific point in 2023, and it holds up today. I have posted it free, and I hope you will read it. The idea that low-revenue teams don't retain their best young players is a myth, and the only counter for myth is fact. www.joesheehan.com/2023/01/joe-...

Bruce Meyer, the MLBPA chief, said the idea that a salary cap is the only way to allow small-market teams to keep players is not true. He listed many players as an example, including the Orioles signing and extending catcher Samuel Basallo

hi, internet! I have a request for y'all: if you see the MLB "level the playing field" ad anywhere, record it, send it to me, and note where you saw it (MLB tv, youtube, etc). I am trying to see how many variations there are. signal: jenramose.23 jramoseisen at gmail
