Such irony that there are fires all over LA while the LA team is setting fire to major league baseball

Bro really said he was open to mid markets because of media circuses and then picks LA, lulz.

Exactly. Go Royals! I would say Go Mariners, but we all know where they end up.

Lost just about everything as a kid due to an earthquake. Now wants to play in a dump of a stadium surrounded by wildfires that is going to get hit by another massive earthquake.

Is the LA market really that bad media wise? Guess I always thought of them as soft. Cause they had a radio host who was a former Trojan made a semi negative comment about Pete Carroll and he basically got expelled from coming around SC until Carroll was gone.

LA is certainly a “big” market, but it’s hardly a baseball market. LA is a Lakers town primarily and the fans are very casual/distant. People certainly aren’t sports-obsessed the same way they might be in Philly, New York or Boston, for example. I would guess Sasaki can just walk down the streets of LA without even being recognized. He would be swarmed in a town like New York.

This is why I am in favor of international players being forced into the amateur draft.

In 10 years a team will field the absolute best player at their perspective position, hitting, or defense, 5 aces rotation and there’s not a damn thing anyone can do about it. This is what the MLB is becoming.

Ever played a video game where you pick the best of the best? That’s gonna happen in real life for the MLB.

This is why baseball sucks right now. And this is possibly one of the reasons why teams like the Mariners aren’t going to invest in big-time players. They just know that they’re probably not going to go to/win the World Series anyways with the likes of the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers,, Etc. spending the money like they do… if this trend continues, the Mariners will never go to the World Series
