MLB 2023 Season: Rangers are going hunting for Snakes

It probably depends how much the team owner really wants to win. Some clearly DGAF period, others DGAF as long as the fans keep streaming into the park (ex: Wrigley).

 

Congratulations on breaking Ohtani, Angels. ‍

 

Really? I'm surprised by that, but their run differential is helped by their pre-all star break hot streak. Since the All Star Break, the offense (From my observations) has been really bad, probably the worst I've seen it. I agree though this team isn't as bad as the A's, who are just hopeless at this point.

 

Rays to announce new stadium....right next to the old one

So much for the "It's the location and a dome causing nobody to come" bull...., they still won't draw, they still won't spend and a billionaire will rip a city off for half a billion (to start)

On the plus side...now that the A's and Ray's have done their grifting it'll be expansion time.

 

Cities with groups already making the pitch for MLB teams:

Music City Baseball (Nashville)
Portland Diamond Project
Salt Lake City consortium

 

With Utah's liquor laws? Good luck with that.

 

Throw a few back and forget about it.

 

Marlins, Part II.

 

The Marlins are letting their fans set their own prices for tickets for the rest of the season. Give a price you're willing to pay for a seat location, the team will say yes or no. The higher your price, the better your seats.

 

They must be buying every fan a Segway.

 

With tonight's two homers and one stolen base, Acuña just needs to hit one more homer and steal three more bases in the next 11 games to go 40-70 this season!

 

I agree with @Timby (God help us all ) about Miller Park. What is it about that place that NEEDS renovation?

 

I think we inch closer and closer to a situation where poor people finally engage in a rather bloody revolt.

Fuck anything that helps society, another billionaire needs a public handout to pay for their toys.

 

Brewers pitcher J.C. Mejia gets a 162-game PED suspension.

 

It's funny you should mention that. I've had a couple of customers come into the shop the last couple of weeks from Utah who say that the reason they've moved out of the state is because Utah in the last year or so has expanded its liquor control laws and lowered the legal limit of intoxication to one of the lowest in the nation where even just taking a sip and smelling liquor on your breath is considered drunk.

 

Angels officially shut down Trout for the season.

 

Former MLB player Erik Pappas is playing in the European Championship for Greece..... and he's 57.
