It's not even clear the Dodgers are better than last year's team that lost in the ALDS, let alone a super team. They added Glasnow, which likely...
The Dodgers just acquired (or are in the process of) a bunch of expensive players and have Ohtani for a decade - their window is not simply...
Not just DMs - it would be pretty easy to find her in real life and harass her offline as well. We've seen it repeatedly in the modern world....
In the modern world, the harassment goes much further. It would be pretty easy for idiots to find her address, find her family, leave death...
Weird combo of sentences in the same post. Why comment about something when you admittedly have no idea what the issue is?
Wait - trading an all-star or cy-young player reduces the Astros' chances from 20% to 18%, but adding some potential future prospect adds 5% to...
It seems to me the only reason to enter the portal now instead of 3 or 4 weeks from now is if you're trying to go to an elite school. A lesser...
So you're going to trade Framber for prospects and then trade prospects to replace Framber? The only reason I can see to do this is if you think...
It's so weird to me. He's also the only innings-eater on the team. Verlander has worn down in recent seasons. Javier and Brown haven't shown...
Except you can't "backfill" one of the top or so pitchers in the league unless you're paying a boatload of money or are willing to drop your odds...
Then midseason everyone will be complaining about our lack of aces. You can't sign a player for better value than you're getting with Framber....
If you're only ever looking 3-4 years ahead, you're also doomed to failure. Trading your chances to win in 2024 and 2025 so you might be better...
You seem to be arguing both sides here. On hand, you're pointing out that you don't need to be great to have a chance at the WS. But you're also...
Given Dubon's history and comments about SF, I don't see any scenario where Dubon ends up there.
The team let Cole, Springer, Correa, Keuchel, Morton, etc walk away and kept building and competing. Maybe the message you send is that we believe...
If the Dodgers can collect 10 half-season pitchers, maybe they can form a full rotation.
It's the grass-is-always-greener effect. Everyone is always looking forward to the next shiny thing. I don't think people realize how rare it is...
Oh whoops - gotcha. I thought you were referring to the $680MM and thinking that should be $460.
No - they put in $46MM/yr and let it earn interest. Then by the time they pay it out, the value has increased so they can pay out his $680MM while...
Pretty crazy that MLB would promote the most popular player in the league on their twitter account.
