Anyone watch it? What a game last night especailly with it being an elimination game. First time in my life I ever cheered for David Wright that filthy, homo of a Met. That game officially got my baseball juices flowing and I am ready for the season to begin. And yes, my baseball juices are slightly salty.

Please note that if you did not watch the game you are a commie and should be getting your deportation papers in the mail this week.

I haven't anticipated a baseball season like this in years

I bet not....wonder if they will live up to all the hype with that pitching staff and the new stadium........they still need to get that offense clicking though.

I don't mean this in a cocky way at all but since the Phillies won the World Series and I really don't see them repeating, it feels a bit anti-climatic right now. Something about reaching the other side of the summit after climbing it for so long takes something away some of the fire from this season and it sucks. Maybe that will change once the season gets going.......

That game was... AMAZING!! I really did not think they could do it.. But they are still alive and I couldn't be happier. Venezuela will be very tough though. They look like the favorites right now. As for baseball season, that game as well got me ready. April sixth is drawing near, and the second best sport in the world is starting soon!

I think the WBC is stupid.

Sorry JR. I love baseball, you know that, but this Selig brainfart is contrived and phony.

If any Cub player got hurt or got set back by playing in it I would be superpissed.

I find it meaningless jigoistic garbage.

baseball already has a fantastic international presence in MLB.

The timing is bad, the whole thing just annoys me.

Isn't PR a territory or colony or whatnot anyway?

Won't get an argument from me. I kind of agree. I am not a big fan of the idea either but that game was great. I guess I am just feeding the machine by watching it though huh?

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
