It has to be hard to be a Braves fans. So many good teams so little World Series titles. But, I am lifelong Royals fan, they had 5 good years in the past 30. But we got a new owner so there is some hope. We do have GM from the Braves, Dayton Moore. But most people are sick of him, even though he was GM when we won series in 15, and almost in 14.
B-Dolo a Kansas Royals fan. I wouldn't have guessed.
Those 80s teams with George Brett, Frank white, willie Wilson, Brett saberhagen. etc. Plus their AAA affiliate been in my hometown since forever. A lot of KC Royals fans around here.Quote:

No one got voted into Hall this year. Im thinking no one from PED ever will. ARod is eligible next year. Interesting to see if he gets many votes.
why didn't Schilling get in yet? they don't like his viewpoints?
Pretty much with Schilling. He fell 16 votes short. Sucks politics got to affect everything today. But he's stupid to fall into that trap and care about something like that.
Oh please athletes get political all the time. The majority of these idiots got on their knees to suck Bigot BLM feminist cunt.
People are retarded on the left right now but I guess they’re just showing their true colors.
I could care less about Hall of Fame and all this pomp and circumstance.
Pete Rose isn’t in it because of empty suit “grudges”.
Yep. Athletes should not get politcal, same with hollywood.
Those people are so far removed from the average American they might as well be politicians.Quote:

Fernando Tatis Jr. inks third largest deal in MLB history after only playing a year and half. Head scratcher for me.
Tampa Bay wins AL then drops to 18.6 to get to playoffs. Damn!
My fav the KC Royals were at 10.1%. But so far are
dominating. Wonder if it will last.
It looke like they changed Albert Pujols's wikipedia back to how it was. Someone had edited it to say that he was born in the 1800's and that he was 100 years older than any other active player. lol
Did anyone use to watch This week in baseball?
I did watch. Do you know If there is full episodes anywhere? I can still remember the song at the end and TWIB notes.
Yes, do you have anything to add.Quote:

There is an MLB channel on Pluto TV that has 15 or so episodes of TWIB on demand from the 70s and 80s I just found today. They should release every episode on YT for free, but MLB has a hard time connecting with fans.Quote:

The Yankees are killing it currently and it is so annoying hearing about it constantly. Mets need to steal some of their heat for the good of all baseball fans.Quote:

They’re also in the NLCS.
Phillies vs. Astros. Any predictions?
Astros |)
Pitch clock rules and no shifting seem to be a win for the spring training games I have seen so far.
Congrats to the Texas Rangers winning their first world series title.
After nearly six decades, the Oakland Athletics played their final game in Oakland, and the storied franchise finished its run in the East Bay in front of a sold-out crowd.
In an emotional game Thursday afternoon, the A's closed out their final home series with a 3-2 win over the Texas Rangers. The team will play in Sacramento for the next three seasons before permanently relocating to Las Vegas in 2028.
Oakland, which has not seen packed stadiums in many years, had a full crowd for Thursday's game, with 46,889 total A's fans filling in the Coliseum. Thousands of fans lined up as early as 8 a.m. for the 12:30 p.m. game.
The emotional afternoon started off strong, with former A's pitcher Barry Zito singing the national anthem and A's legends Dave Stewart and Rickey Henderson throwing out the first pitch.

The game also aptly featured appearances from multiple classic Oakland characters, including A's superfan Banjo Man (real name Stacy Samuels) and Krazy George, the former Oakland cheerleader who invented the Wave in the Coliseum in 1979.

Throughout this final series, which began Tuesday, fans took the opportunity to take pieces of the stadium with them. The Oakland grounds crew helped fans get some of the dirt from the Coliseum field as a keepsake.

On Tuesday, some fans went as far as taking seats from the Coliseum.
Fisher, who became the A's owner in 2005, wrote a poorly received statement on Monday, saying that the franchise "did our very best" to keep the team in Oakland.
Multiple reports said that Athletics players and coaches were advised to leave the stadium immediately after Thursday's game, as the team was unsure how fans would react following the conclusion of the game. Despite this, Kotsay spoke to fans after the game, thanking them for their support and for joining the team for this final game.
"I think we all should pay homage to this amazing stadium that we've had the privilege and pleasure of enjoying for 57 years," Kotsay said, addressing the crowd before starting one last "Let's go, Oakland" cheer.
Prior to throwing the pitch, Stewart, who won two World Series with the A's as a pitcher, said that it felt like a funeral.
What a joke, the Dodgers are basically the process of buying their next title. They essentially have a all star team for a line up.
