Baseball 2018!

The Sox went out and....and then they....then they...and then....

Um, we have a new manager. :rolleyes:

Sox ownership continues their pattern of over spending on busts one year then doing nothing the next.

Travis Shaw to Milwaukee was a bad enough deal and only done so fat slob Panda could play third with a controversy. Shaw has a monster year now could possibly be dealt to the Yankees.

Smooth move Dumbrowski, I can't wait to see if Price can't start anymore and we hear all about our 30 mil a year 'weapon' out of the bullpen.
 
I saw a AAA spring training game once.

The Hawai'ian Islanders trained in John Gavin Park, Ontario CA.

But they weren't as good as a free concert in the park with Jan & Dean, Sonny & Cher, April & Nino, and the Fantastic Baggies.
 


A 4-game sweep.
The Dodgers were held scoreless for 33 consecutive innings.

They all worked in the off-season. McNally was a beer salesman. I've still got his business card.

ETA:
None of 'em will ever get another dollar out of me.

It's an obscene waste of money— all of it: the publicly funded stadiums, the ticket prices, and the absurdly overpaid players.

At least the Brewers played this off-season. :p

You guys will have a good team this season, I think. Quality bats, but the pitching is a little iffy, less so if Nelson is a go. But, please, please don't trade Santana. He earned the right to be an everyday player last year.

Trade Braun instead. :D

I am not a Brewers fan, but I'm happy they played the off-season so well. :D
 
First game of the season tix already in-hand: Saturday, April 28, Braves vs. Phillies

Can't wait.
 
Madison Bumgarner reported to the Giants to day for Fanfest. He has all the reporters up in arms due to his weight loss. He appears to have toned up and tightened up since his dirt bike accident this past year. His contract is up in 2020.

Yu Darvish to Cubs in a 6-year, $126 million contract!

Holy moly!

Will Yu live up to expectations? I think Chicago overpaid and were bidding against themselves. 6 years is a long time for a pitcher min today's world. Yu has only pitched over 200 inning 1 once in 5 years. Low of 43 innings. Most of his career he averages between a 100 - 150 innings pitched. When he pitches that few of innings he doesn't strike out as many batters per inning. Again a lot of money for a 31 year old pitcher with a average record.

May his contract be a weight around the organization's neck in years 2 through 6.

Also, he has an opt-out after Year 2. I imagine the Cubs will be very pleased to have him exercise it.
 
It will make a resurgence with kids not being allowed to play tackle football until age 13 and some jurisdictions might outlaw it entirely. San Francisco, I'm looking at you.
 
Baseball has probably lost 2 generations of fans to video games and the rise in popularity of basketball.
 
and short attention spans. i mean, i like it, but it's often quite dull and it takes forever. i get why the kids aint loving it too much these days.

Wont Happen. California Elected Moonbeam. But the father and son want there time together and the helmet manufacturer have a lot of money at stake. Not to mention every Pop Warner football league in the US.
 
I'd love to see LoMo in COL. If he hit 38 dingers playing half his games at the Trop, Lord knows what he'll do with half his games at Coors.
 
The humidor is coming! The humidor is coming!

The long ball will be harder to come by at Chase Field this season.
