I missed most of the 2024 season, what happened?

With that in mind, per this ESPN story, let's see just what he does in May on the pitching side, or in April on the batting side. In the World Series, after all, Dodgers management was downplaying its seriousness. It reports that Ohtani himself used the phrase "complicated surgery" at the Dodgers' fan fest. EDIT: Got the wrong shoulder originally, so it will be primarily a pitching issue.

I am running a Franchise in OOTP 25 where expos are back in Montreal and I took the decision to make a story driven franchise that you can follow on OOTP forum: https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/showthread.php?t=360148 let me know how you like it.!

Should personality be removed from the process? I say yes.

Lifelong Mets fan here (born after ‘86) Was re-watching the 1986 World Series with my father and realized a few things

1-the Red Sox had a 3-2 lead in the 8th inning and blew it, 6 outs from a World Series title

2-the Red Sox had a 5-3 lead in the 10th inning with 2 outs (and 2 strikes), and blew it again! The score was already tied BEFORE Buckner’s error. The game was in New York with the crowd going crazy. Strong chance the Mets win the game regardless in later innings.

3-In Game 7 the Red Sox AGAIN blew a 3-0 lead in the 6th inning

That’s 3 late blown leads in 2 games to win the World Series that had nothing to do with Buckner’s error. It’s strange to me that he was made the scapegoat for a team that squandered that many chances to win a title

Like I’m not even joking, can someone give us a comparison because I don’t watch basketball and have no idea what’s going on lmfaooo

For those who don’t know, the trade is

Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris to the Lakers

Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first rounder to the Mavs

Edit: Oh so it’s like the Mookie Betts trade but worse because neither team needed to shed payroll. Wonderful 💀

Based on what ever the hell happened this last hour… can we predict a trade like this would happen in the MLB some time soon?

If so, then who’d be traded?

Is there any way to get Rays games in Canada that's cheap and legal. Btw MLB.tv doesn't work for some reason

It’s winter and I’ve been watching a lot of hockey to pass the time to Spring Training. What MLB players look like hockey players?

Patrick Wisdom (Cubs) Nolan Arenado (Cards)

My pick is Luis Guillorme

It can be from your team or all of them if you want to go there but who's the next player you see getting their number retired by their former team in the future.

ESPN gets old teammates, opponents and managers to reminisce with a celebration of his life scheduled today in Oakland. (The sad, weird and other things part? Per that link, the not-really-Oakland A's are part of sponsoring that.)

Here's an appetite-whetter:

Those who knew him are saturated with stories about the Hall of Famer, about his devotion to excellence, his acumen, his persona and those moments when he transcended the sport. "The legend of Rickey Henderson still lives on through the numbers of the game," [Mike] Cameron said, "and the legendary stories."

And an anecdote, also from Cameron:

Henderson was a leadoff hitter through his career, but Cameron would see him in the clubhouse only minutes before a game, finishing a game of spades, or pluck. "Never in a hurry," Cameron remembered. And then he would start to stretch. Cameron, batting second, once called out to his friend from the on-deck circle as the home plate umpire began to look for the first batter: "Hey, Rick, they are ready for you!"

Henderson responded smoothly, "The game don't start until Rickey goes to the plate."

Well put. Many more from everyday players through Paul Molitor, and managers including La Russa and Bochy, as well as an ump or two.

I’m trying to watch the carribran series on mlb network but it’s just some bs with Bob costas about Jon miller the sounds of baseball.

What the heck?!

Do you think it should be only kids getting autographs at games/training camps or or both? Just curious where everyone stands on the subject.
