He’s on a “bigger” contract so I get the no return. Philly will probably be looking to pick up a bad contract for a season or two, I imagine

Beast man

[robust grotto]

Very cool that they’re changing the logo for the 100th season

[celest zephyr]

Ugly

Just like their team

[rustic mountain]

The only thing that irritates me with the Bruins is they could have a bear logo and bears are cool

But instead they do the same thing so many other sports teams do

Stylized Letter

[robust grotto]

I’ll still never forgive Juventus

[celest zephyr]

Same with the bears

So lame

A toilet seat

When they are called the bears

[robust grotto]

Bears have always been that C tho??

[celest zephyr]

And it’d be way cooler if their logo was a bear

[robust grotto]

Ah I see

Like the Cubs cub

[celest zephyr]

That’d be so funny to buy merch with that logo on it

Yeh

Now they use a generic ass c though also

[dim kettle]

Still never understood why they changed it in the 90s in the first place. Yellow B just pops more on the black unis.

[rustic mountain]

Was about to put

Yeah

Dude is donezo

Idk how you come back from that shit

Man can't pitch anymore

[dim kettle]

Joins the Rays on the cheap and then becomes elite again

[rustic mountain]

Oh well, his mouth was way too big anyway and Gaus has always been in my mind the number one. Looks like we are looking for another pitcher

Have him if you want

He will say something stupid about pressure being tires for you too then give up 17 to the Las Vegas A's

[calm mulch]

horrible

in 2 innings ? LMAO

[rustic mountain]

I have zero clue what caused his massive dip

Like

Jesus dude

[celest zephyr]

In the Florida complex league even

[honest umbra]

pitch clock, u reckon?

[celest zephyr]

Might be

[rustic mountain]

Gotta be more than that

[celest zephyr]

Also could have just gotten figured out

Only has two good pitches to begin with

[calm mulch]

his mental didn't handle well the time clock for pitches

[dim kettle]

Gotta be mental aspect.

[calm mulch]

threw him off completely

[weak gull]

He looks fuckin putrid, pitch clock ain’t the only thing whoopin his ass

[calm mulch]

i wonder if he has the yips

[celest zephyr]

Probably does

[rustic mountain]

Doesn't matter if you only have two pitches

What matters is can you locate em

And he Hellla Isnt

All I will say is thank god for Kevin Gausman

[calm mulch]

outfielder incoming

[dim kettle]

The problem with the argument is pitchers have had time in spring training this year to get used to the pitch clock. So, I think it's all in his head other than just the clock.

[rustic mountain]

It's in his head and I think Reality is here boys

Alek Manoah isn't in shape enough

[calm mulch]

yips is all mental too, everything is mental

he lost his rhythm

and panicked

[dim kettle]

Being a pitcher is all mental. One fucked up thought ruins your game, period.

[rustic mountain]

Oh well.

We are still in the playoff hunt

And Manoah's shit talking last year pissed me iff

Off

Would I love to have him back at his near cy young rate? Duh. But it isn't dooming our season rn

[weak gull]

Really hoping we aren’t told we are losing more pitchers for an extended period of time

[calm mulch]

those stats for 2 whole innings is just atrocious

fell off hard

[celest zephyr]

Hey Vinny why not have manoah

He’s a body at least

[hasty basin]

5 more minutes

[celest zephyr]

And the royals suck ass anyways

[hasty basin]

I am so sweaty

Come on man

[celest zephyr]

So they can’t possibly lose that much more

[honest umbra]

its crazy becuz this time last year, manaoh was in ASG on the com talking shiz

[dim kettle]

The MLB playoffs are a lot more fair to get into these days. But this is still a league where the defense can still dominate. You make the playoffs and get a little extra revenue for a playoff game. But the Jays should be up there to win a title with the talent they have. They shouldn't be in a situation where they're fighting for a WC spot.

[calm mulch]

kikuchi smilling rn

[honest umbra]

baseball is a cruel sport

[celest zephyr]

Where have i heard that before?

Oh wait that sounds like the leafs lmao

[dim kettle]

If you took the Jays out of the AL East, they'd still be struggling to hold a division in the AL Central rn.

[rustic mountain]

We have the talent but we also didnt expect the Rays to be on a historic pace

Or the Orioles to be fucking insane

[weak gull]

Probably will announce we have 11 pitchers on the injury list this afternoon, but manning is supposed to be back tonight at least

So 10 then I guess

[celest zephyr]

Or to somehow be losing to a yankees team without judge

[rustic mountain]

Would we be dominating no but the Orioles and the Rays are a cut above rn

[dim kettle]

Reminder, you're only 6 games ahead of the Guards rn.

[rustic mountain]

Reminder, the rest of the league is a lot closer than the Rays and Orioles race

[weak gull]

I’m rooting for the orioles heavily

[dim kettle]

The Rays and O's are a lot better. But you also can't pretend that the Jays should also be up there.

[celest zephyr]

I’m more sad being 3.5 games ahead of the twins

[rustic mountain]

Look at this shit

[weak gull]

One of y’all should join the central

[rustic mountain]

I agree the Jays should be higher

But like

It's also way closer in the AL than anticipated

[celest zephyr]

Wow we are the 6th seed huh

[rustic mountain]

When even the Astros are behind us

[dim kettle]

The O's are winning a lot because, pause :"pitching'... What a concept.

[honest umbra]

what about all their rookie hitters?

[celest zephyr]

Yeah yeah our bullpen is atrocious what else is new

[dim kettle]

Because defense still very much wins you games.

[rustic mountain]

We have a good defense

And I think we have another gear we can hit

Especially if we buy at the trade deadline

[hasty basin]

TOP OF THE TABLEEEEEEE

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT

[honest umbra]

whats that table for?

[celest zephyr]

U21

[dim kettle]

Can't even say the Yanks are underachieving because I knew what they were without Judge. The media just overrates them every year like the NFL does with the Cowboys.

[robust grotto]

And then it rubs off on fair weathered sports fans who don’t know any better

[celest zephyr]

Der yankees going to win the World Series!!!!!!!!

[robust grotto]

I will say though that a lot of people in NY have been humbled by the last 10 years

[celest zephyr]

Yeah its harder to make fun of the yankees with how lame duck they’ve been

[robust grotto]

I rarely hear people call in and boast that THIS IS THE YEAR !!!

[celest zephyr]

At least we still have Ferrari and the cowboys

[robust grotto]

They’re actually super aware that they’re just mid

Or slightly better than mid I guess

[dim kettle]

They're getting to the point that they are turning into the modern Cowboy fan. Where they'll just ask you how many rings you have compared to them. Just saying 27 rings is sounding a lot of like 5 rings as the years go back

[celest zephyr]

27 is a fuckton though lmao

[robust grotto]

For sure and it’s good for the sport anyway

[weak gull]

Was gone say 😂

Lotta muthafucking rings, but I get ya point

[dim kettle]

27 is a lot till you remember it's not been recent.

[robust grotto]

Habs fans can talk about 24 or whatever and no one cares

You have to legit be 35/36 to even say you have vivid memories of the 93 team

[dim kettle]

And come from a time where there were like 10 teams at max.

[celest zephyr]

Leafs have 13 but shrugs lmao

[weak gull]

Known. It’s like Michigan and it’s national titles, when only 2 of them really matter

[celest zephyr]

Doedsn’t matter

Hahahaha

When they all came before the space age

[robust grotto]

1967 bro smh

[rustic mountain]

Count how many rings they have since like the 70s

[robust grotto]

Leafs have never won post O6

[rustic mountain]

It diminishes it a lot

[celest zephyr]

I know its like the Celtics having 17 rings but like 3 or 4 past 1970s

[weak gull]

They was playing against plumbers

[robust grotto]

Between the 90s and 00s the Yankees had like … 6/7?

[rustic mountain]

7

Since 1970

[celest zephyr]

Celtics have 6 lmao

[dim kettle]

You can respect those past Yankee titles. But we're always in the thought process of "What have you done for me lately?"

[rustic mountain]

I don't give two shits about yankees titles pre 70s

[weak gull]

Truly. That mentality rules sports rn

[celest zephyr]

2009 ain’t even that long ago tbh

[robust grotto]

Plus what’s the point if you aren’t there to win. Only making money won’t keep fans around for long

[dim kettle]

Not gonna be a Yinzer and say fire everyone because they didn't win a title. But your goal should be to win a title and trying to be like the 2010s Red Wings who boasted about a playoff streak I refuse to not shit on.

I just didn't want debt going into the my late 20s for a piece of paper I'd just use as a hockey puck.

100% understand, I didn’t actually enjoy school along with learning until I got into my counseling/student affairs courses

As time goes on there’s less teams WSH can work with

They’re trying to jump Philly at 6. MTL definitely won’t leave that spot now. SJ is glued to 4, they’ve said it…. Is CBJ at 3 a potential wild card to move down??

Losing Edwin Diaz off a silly situation was bad for them I get that. But that bullpen is just not good.

[smoky fable]

I feel that's a common problem.

It's very rare for a team not to have BP issues

[dim kettle]

It's the likes of Verlander and Max Scherzer. They're not bad rn, but they're not living up to their contracts. And who would've thought? Your two priced starting pitchers are over 35 years old.

It's like the Mets have gotten carried away with spending. And yes, they're in the biggest market in the country, they should be spending money more than most teams. But they're going through the same problems a Texas Rangers go through. You need to do more than just sign all stars. It's also about fit, coaching, etc.

The PLD trade, technically, is a beast. All involved are still working on the contract extension. Because of cap issues, expect the Jets to make another move…likely buying out Wheeler. Still moving parts.

SOME BULLSHIT

[smoky fable]

Just stuck in mediocrity

[dim kettle]

Derrick Rose and Fred VanVleet are the final pieces to make a run, baybee!!!

[weak gull]

They tend not to be too bad if I’m being honest. Only ones who give me a tough time are bears fans, and that’s because for some reason a lot think they are better than the lions going into next year

White Sox know our pain so not much there, I don’t deal with blackhawks fans, bulls fans are living in the same spot the pistons did in the early 2010s

And for college, Illinois basketball fans are annoying towards UofM. But that’s all

[smoky fable]

Hell no

[smoky fable]

At least you’re not in Green Bay Wisconsin

[weak gull]

Thank the Lord for that

I can’t handle packers fans, swept em last year and they still yapped

[dim kettle]

We know pain but at least the Tigers knew they had the money for a while. Jerry Reinsdorf runs his baseball team like they're small market when they're in the 3rd largest market in the fucking country.

[smoky fable]

I still find it funny that he said that he would trade one of the Bulls titles for a white Sox ring in the past, and he runs the team like this

[weak gull]

It’s like Reinsdorf watched the pistons debacle from a decade ago not committing to a true rebuild and said “ima do that”

[dim kettle]

Also funny he says this knowing he was a big part in the 94 strike. Which fucked up that 94 White Sox contender.

[smoky fable]

I can’t trust anything from that guys mouth

[weak gull]

Just doing whatever to compete for a fucking 6-8 seed

Without a bonfire star

Toffoli's 5 on 5 Points the last 3 seasons: 84

Sharangovich's 5 on 5 points the last 3 seasons: 76

Pretty similar numbers at 5 on 5. I wonder if Sharangovich can get to the 50-60 point range if he is put in a similar situation as Toffoli. Top 6 and PP time.

I think he's ending up at Arsenal regardless

But who knows

Definitely a little salt but once he’s playing football I bet that’ll cool down

I hope we can sell him

Ah so not enough sample size

[proud coyote]

And also I think we want a better player there

Word that’s fair; he’s a little “older” at 26 too

Gonna ask for a mythical Henry hair strand next

[thorn hornet]

Sullivan also did an interview on TalkSport about Rice

Their finances must be fucked if they are asking for that much

[sweet tree]

it's just how much they value him

getting the more money out of either club is in the best interest for them

[thorn hornet]

He has a year left on his deal

[sweet tree]

yeah I saw that

usually he would go cheaper on his last year

but given 2 top clubs are after him they'll squeeze every last cent possible

and hey nothing wrong with it imo, deffo annoying for you guys tho

[smoky fable]

Which team would bow out first though

[sweet tree]

good question

I think City might give up on him first

[smoky fable]

Arsenal needs Rice more imo (between the two)

[desert palm]

Bruh

Why are umpires so blind?

He would’ve been on base instead he got out

That was a called strike number 4

[proud coyote]

Probably a good framing job

Still don’t get why we care about framing enough to allow it

Like it’s cool, I get that

But it’s just cheating

you’re trying to fool the umpire into thinking a ball is a strike

[desert palm]

As of today, I am officially on the roboump train

I’ve never seen something like this live, and now I have let’s get those things going now

Bring the replay review system from the minor leagues

Or majority of the time.

[proud coyote]

Umps are made worse by framing

[desert palm]

By the way, Shohei Ohtani is the definition of magical

10Ks 6.1 innings

Guy got a solo shot early in the game

And he was pulled due to potential injury after pitching over 100 pitches with two runners on base

One of them scored because bullpen, of course

Probably felt bad about the fact that he put two runners on base to let one of them score

Makes up for it with a second solo shot

What can he not do?

😂

Get this man out of Arte Moreno’s hands!!!!!

[keen sparrow]

@dim ledge you watching the ashes

he's my goat

[solid dagger]

Did Arsenal really offer 122M for Rice?

Is he that good or are Arsenal just desperate for a player like him?

Or a bit of both?

[solid dagger]

ngl this looks like a really good team, I don't think Odegaard and Havertz will play both in midfield tho

[thorn hornet]

Yes

[thorn hornet]

100 mil plus 5 in add ons

Pounds or euros?

Now that West Ham got that bag we could try to get more money for Zakaria 😈

That's a lot but if he's that good it's gonna be worth it

Is Arsenal done for the market now? Or do they need another midfielder?

[thorn hornet]

We are going to generate over 70 mil in sales

Just need Timber and a midfielder

Lavia is my pick

Like. McDavid had 25 points more than the second place Draisaitl. Not goals. Points. The dude was far and away the Hart winner and if you really don't believe that, anything past 2nd place is hard to justify. But 5th??

Don’t you wonder how I got a vote

Why are you calling me a nerd

[short flame]

Or just someone funni

[dim kettle]

For 5 first round picks and players. Very simple

[short flame]

I’d have put him 2nd or third. Why is Leon so low on the list

[short flame]

I give ukko pekka and our first round pick. Is this enough?

[rustic mountain]

Because Leon posted 25 less points than McDavid even with McDavid being the focal point of their starting line

[short flame]

I get it but why 7th if he finished second in points

[rustic mountain]

Because points isn't the be all end all. It's a good metric to use, but some players were more valuable to their team with less points

[short flame]

He would have been my top 1. But I thought he would have been top 5. But yeah points isn’t the only metric

I’m impressed Tage got as high as 14th

[rustic mountain]

Leon is amazing don't get me wrong, but McDavid was clear and away the Hart winner this year. It should have been unanimous, but that one writer wanted to be petty. Putting McDavid 5th tells everyone he didn't actually think McDavid was 5th, but he didn't like him and I think it was a Pittsburgh writer, which makes sense

He would want to keep Syd as the greatest of this era, but it's stupid because Syd's legacy is fine no matter what McDavid does

[short flame]

Why couldn’t it be a buffalo writer from Montreal

[short flame]

Yeah I think syd is still ahead. So is ovi in my opinion

Can't afford to re-sign him, better to trade him off.

Absolutely but McDavid is quickly solidifying his status. If the Oilers get a cup within his time there, he will surpass Ovi pretty easily and tbh be in the convo with Syd

I would still put Syd higher until McDavid gets 2, but he would be in that convo
