It's honestly fairly sad that I'm looking forward to this. Then again, I found two ants yesterday in my house, put them both in a bowl and watched to see who would get out first. So yeah, this lack of competition to watch is getting bad!

I am excited about this too, but I hope ESPN will air these games during normal waking hours. I can't stay up all night watching KBO games no matter how starved I am for sports.

Where's the payout?  I had $20 on the black one.

There is a game at 630 am.

Chinatrust Brothers vs.Uni Lions.

It should be showing on http://livetv.sx/enx/allupcoming/ , tomorrow, but it is an unsecured site, proceed at your own risk.  I have never had a problem.  YMMV.  And if you're that desperate, this site also shows past games.

Tony, if links like this are not allowed, remove it.

I am still hopeful for baseball this year.  But you can read this article in the Atlantic (paywall) and it covers the many issues of opening up the college football season.  https://theathletic.com/1794289/2020/05/05/college-football-season-covid-19-coronavirus-planning-playoff-commissioners/

 

Some locations will be more open or more able to open than others.  The idea that All baseball could open with all home parks as early as July is definitely a stretch.

 

I miss baseball

Trust me, there was plenty of Porn out on Betamax. lol

Yes, there was.  But most was on VHS.  And I couldn't afford both a VHS player and Betamax at the same time, so I had to go from memory.

    • She’s awful.  I wouldn’t take anything she says to mean anything. 
    • This Twitter thread is interesting. A lot of things track. I generally think she doesn’t know much but she does seem to know people around the team. She’s also been a Hyde defender.     
    • I feel like they did it to entice pitchers on short-term deals to come here and now have their stats blow up.
    • Here was the Wheeler extension from this past spring - he is finishing 2024 under the terms of his original 2020-2024 contract, so these are guarantees Middleton and Dombrowski made blind to whether Wheeler would hit any health bumps in 2024. Wheeler 5.30.1990 is 4 plus years older than Burnes 10.22.1994, but has a ton more October achievement, including 7 shutout innings this afternoon.    30 Swings and Misses!!! 3 years/$126M (2025-27) signed extension with Philadelphia 3/4/24 25:$42M, 26:$42M, 27:$42M
    • It wasn’t Cowser and Ortiz for Burnes..it was Cease.  And at that time, they did have to give that to get him, clearly. I never wanted to lose Urias for nothing. And yea, I wanted to trade some of our vets and play the kids…and put more emphasis on the pitching staff. I wanted Hays gone and wanted Mounty gone.   And it was definitely you but whatever. 
    • I don't remember those conversations.  I pegged them at 90-95 wins in the poll, so there's no way I wouldn't have believed they could win 88 games.  Which of course they didn't, even with the injuries and underperformance. The biggest thing I remember arguing with you about last off-season was that we didn't need to give Ortiz and Cowser up to get Burnes and it would be foolish to give up them both.  I specifically argued that we didn't need to trade Ortiz as we could find a place for him to play, specifically citing the likelihood of injury. I really think you're thinking about somebody else.  I'm also not sure why you think you were one of the voices arguing for "depth" as you were willing to lose Mateo and Urias for basically nothing, and they both contributed to this team and were a bulwark against injury/underperformance.  You were willing to trade Cowser and where would we have been without him? This team's performance this year was well within the boundaries of what I expected, if a bit on the lower end.  The only thing confusing to me about it was what happened to Rutschman. That said, my "confusion" is what is the best path forward.
