Brewers had runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs, and 8-9-1 coming up. They didn't score AND burned Freddy Peralta with a pinch hitter. Huge swing for the game there.

Oakland really stands out here. Padres and Yankees maybe a too, depending on how much the luxury tax limit changes

Yeah, I think this is where I'm at, with the added bit that with how much brain drain has happened in Tampa the last few years I'd be a bit more comfortable we're truly getting the best and brightest out of Cleveland. So come on down James Harris!

I'm guessing Craig's option does not get picked up, bring him home this winter

I frankly love this idea

Luckily pretty much every one on both sides have rightfully poo poo'd that. I think the expectation should be this idea that was floated a few years ago https://nypost.com/2020/02/10/mlb-plotting-playoff-expansion-with-reality-tv-twist/ I think the players will try to keep it to 12 teams, but this is what the owners want. So if even they're wanting to cap it at 14 I think we're safe from last year's nonsense coming back. I hope so, that who playoffs was so weird and felt fake (also because of the neutral sites and lack of fans until later on). People on twitter always joke about the Dodgers Mickey Mouse Championship but it really does feel like that. It doesn't feel like the Dodgers won a legit World Series last year. I don't love giving the Dodgers credit, but honestly I think most of the mickey mouse stuff last year made it harder for them to win, not easier. But I do think they probably need to win another one to fully cement their status as an all-time group. And while they're certainly not in trouble, I do think their contract situation is about to start getting sticky enough that they're no longer going to waltz to 100+ wins every year, so this is likely their last best shot.

We are going to lose it anyway. Yeah. Unfortunately, I think the 2020 COVID playoffs were a preview of things to come. Luckily pretty much every one on both sides have rightfully poo poo'd that.

It's not an exhaustive list, but if the Bears truly only have one guy, and he graduated in 2015 (though granted, from horsefeathering MIT) that's a big problem.

I mean, haven't they been cagey about finances basically every offseason except 2014-2015? Like that's part of their deal. In the Hendry era he'd let Kaplan know where the line is, Jed (and Theo) sees that as a competitive disadvantage.

NELLY!

I love that they're doing a Statcast broadcast for this. Honestly I think more events should have more alternate broadcasts. Alternate languages (and not just radio over the English broadcast, but like full productions), Nickelodeon broadcasts, do it all.

People are dunking on this, but Senzatella has been really good since the start of last year?
