  1. LA (and a lot of So-Cal) have a very large latino population. That would make it much easier for most of those players to assimilate.
  2. Penn State and other colleges draw well over 100,000.
  3. Both Pit Bulls tho. Which is exactly why they gut their jobs.
  4. Bash both sides up against their stupid heads, "Do you remember how much money you lost in 2020??? How much wages?" Maybe into Feb cooler heads prevail, they give a little on both sides' position and work something out.
  5. You wouldn't... but in this case you're probably right. Esp. when we already picked up Lyles.
  6. Just as an aside... that's not a bargaining issue, is it? Can't MLB unilaterally implement whatever they want?
  7. I'm assuming you scrolled down thru the email, clear to the bottom. There is almost ALWAYS an Unsubscribe link.
  8. I'm the eternal optimist... I think it'll get to about Feb. 1st tick tock tick tock... and an agreement will be hammered out. It could happen.....
  9. Yes, ST is fun.... what will be fun this year (if it works out in time...) is the entire offseason signing.. season might be a month, 2 weeks, NO weeks. That is IF the sides can come to an agreement. But the whole FA signing period is going to be compressed into a VERY short period of time. Free-for-all shootout. Every player looking for a job. THAT will be fun!
  10. You know the owners are going to push for the highest age, for longer control. The players will push for the lowest. How hard either side pushes, and what they are willing to give up to get it.. might make or break this negotiation.
  11. And not that it means much... He's a better defender (I think) than Mancini. At least good enough that his bat makes up for it. Plus 1B is a trash position. Stick most anyone there if they can hit and RM is better than "most anyone."
  12. This! There's a whole series of videos on MASNOrioles youboob channel. Bobby working with several different infielders. ML knowledge just gushing out of him about tiny little subtleties that make you better and faster.
  13. This. For the moment at least. And the moment is of course on hold. M.a.y.b.e.... Urias.
  14. I was thinking about it. I did mix up clubhead speed with EV. Never mind.
  15. I'm not sure about that. In my prime I could hit 90-95. Couple long hitters I played with touched 105. A decent PGA player hits 120 ish. John Daly in his prime hit 130-140. I'm not sure 170 is even humanly possible. Maybe with a machine.
  16. On a golf ball??? 130-140 or even a little more.
  17. Depends completely on the new CBA and when we can bring up AR.
  18. Elbows you can fix, knees you can fix. Shoulders (even non-throwing) are BAD. They're never right again.
