OT - I’m bored, Part Herbert!

No, I never visited the Polo Grounds lol

It takes a lot to pass the Pirates.

No, it's impossible.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

The only way this makes sense though is if Ohtani’s agents also told the Jays Ohtani was on that plane because if the Jays were getting played by CAA and Ohtani wouldn’t they want to put a stop to this immediately by leaking that he wasn’t on the plane? Unless they figured, hey, if we’ve lost anyway might as well let the Dodgers bid against themselves.

One thing worth noting too, Herjavec is a CAA client lol

Gotta love that reasoning.

Yep. It's time to reduce MLB to the 12 largest markets and dissolve the rest. Who of any consequence wants to play in a small market anyway.

The 13th best player at each position?

So Mariner fan's you "miss" out on Soto and Ohtani....yep Josh Naylor is a perfect replacement.

I’m in ironically in favor of this.

If 2/3’s of a league are gonna suck in perpetuity might as well just ditch em. Same goes for the NHL that is still inexplicably thinking about expanding further.

So $680 million of Ohtanis $700 is deferred until the contract ends in a decade. Is this kosher with MLB? If not, will both the Canucks and Mariners lose a draft pick because of it?

I wish we had exit velocity numbers - Incredible how fast those balls left the park.

I hear the housing market in Toronto is getting affordable again. It’s really a loss for them.

This must’ve been the house they were building for Ohtani. Toronto is becoming the Bronx in the 70s.

Shit like this wouldn’t happen in Brampton. Just saying.

The Best Remaining Fits For Cody Bellinger

For the past six weeks, the offseason has centered on three individuals: Shohei Ohtani, Juan Soto and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. With the first two …

President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto hasn’t signed a free agent hitter to a multi-year contract in his eight-plus years leading the Seattle front office. Breaking that streak with Bellinger would be a massive shift in operating procedure.

Feel your pain Mariner fans....feel your pain.

This kid has commitment issues:

QB Raiola, No. 8 recruit, flips UGA for Nebraska

Quarterback Dylan Raiola, the No. 8 player in the 2024 ESPN 300 football recruiting rankings, had committed to Georgia but will instead flip to Nebraska.

www.espn.com

Three high-schools also.


Knowing Buford High in GA that is just a football/sports factory masked as a high school. It is considered a "top" school only because of their sports. Essentially they only like minorities in their schools only if they are good at sports.

Anyway I see this as another kid who probably should get away from his parents as soon as possible.

Is Nebraska not far enough?
