    I believe @squally1313 is up for today's game thread.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    I do split things off occasionally. And I kinda like how users use the game threads here because they go away after two days.

    Twitter embeds and uploads are working again so there should be no more 403 errors (until we re-enable this feature and troubleshoot it but now that we know the cause, we can enable/disable as needed). Any 504 errors you might see are because of the persistent DDOS attacks, still working on that.
  5. Brock Beauchamp
    Sites are a mess this morning, cannot upload images or embed anything like tweets AND we're getting hammered with DDOS attacks. A perfect weekend, in other words. At least posting text comments still works fine.
  6. Brock Beauchamp
    We're working through this error. Today was another DDOS attack, now we're trying to implement fixes and it appears the upload/embed functionality broke.

    I’m sure I’m not alone in the belief that this game is not much fun.

    What’s the deal with the hats today?
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    Nope, you're all good, thanks for being on top of this!
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    Alright @squally1313, you're up for today's game thread!
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    Good lord.

    That's kinda where I land but mostly because the price tag on a pre-arb reliever is going to be VERY high while the volatility of relievers limits the chance he'll be worth a high price tag for longer than a season or two.

    By the way, yesterday was an indication that our little group of sites hit the big time: we were slammed with a DDOS attack. It was temporary and we resolved it but that was the cause of yesterday's shenanigans.

    More information about "A's Closer Mason Miller Likely To Be Dealt But Would The Cubs Pay The Asking Price?"
    The Oakland Athletics currently hold a semi-respectable 19-25 record in the American League West but given their current payroll and stadium situation, are likely to be early wheelers and dealers on the trade market. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic recently wrote that A's closer, Mason Miller, is drawing significant trade interest from other teams. The trade deadline seems to be heating up quite early this year as teams like the White Sox and Marlins throw up white flags after abysmal starts to the season. Miller, 25 years old, has broken out in 2024 with a 0.98 ERA in 14 games. He made his debut with Oakland last season so is still pre-arbitration and cannot become a free agent until the 2029 season. The asking price for Miller will be very high but he's also a luxury a rebuilding A's team doesn't need in the here and now, making him somewhat expendable. The Cubs have both a pressing need for a closer and the farm system to easily negotiate this deal, it's a matter of whether Hoyer is ready to take a risk on a formerly-injured pitcher with a short track record.

    Voting closes today and now we have a tie for 1/2 AND 3/4. Y'all are killing me.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    A reminder to @mul21 that the game thread is theirs today.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    No problem, just grab the next thread after a loss. I don't mind filling in and we all have lives to lead. I just play the role of placeholder and then the line resumes after the next loss.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    Yep, servers are sputtering, trying to figure out why.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    If someone wants their vote to *really* count, we're currently deadlocked for first place...
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    I hadn't noticed until now but Chris Sale is havin' himself a season.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    @mul21 is up for today's game thread!
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    Because they’re very alienating to new and less frequent users. And even some long term users. I’ve been running forums for 20 years now and even I just give up on reading or participating in megathreads because it involved sifting through loads of content that I may not care about. At some point, I’m not going to read 100 posts to “catch up”, I’m just going to ignore the thread entirely. And I’m here every day. Five clearly titled, current and relevant threads encourages participation in the community. One massive sprawling thread does the opposite.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    @Rex Buckingham you have tomorrow’s game thread!
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    Well well well, this is quite a pitching matchup.
