Absolutely brutal, but it’s the rule. Ump is literally just doing his job. IMO the rule needs to be rewritten so you can’t balk until you come set, there’s no reason for it to not be that way, at least at the high school level and probably college too

All Star Game voting is dumb. That being said, Gunnar Henderson or Bo Bichette going to the over JP Crawford would be realllllllllll stupid.

Obviously this was a strike. But WHAT is Will Smith doing with this pitch?!?! He pulls it from down the middle to the upper black of the zone. He reversed-framed it!

Cal’s only shot is leading the league in dingers, hitting 280 or better, and Judge hitting no better than 340. Those things combined with Judge voting fatigue MIGHT be enough for Cal to win it.

Sellers rules, tbc But what is special about this throw? He gets the whole end zone to work with and at short range. The coverage is not great (the DB is helpless at the end), there's no safety over the top to avoid.. It's a good throw. But there's nothing special about it

I dream about being able to say "I like the Mariners, but my alliances have changed." Legit the dream. Love you Dave, you're killing it in NY <3

Everyone saying “SEE??! LAUNCH ANGLE IS STUPID” is just not even close to understanding hitting. Thomas was excellent because he hit the ball hard in the air. Just because we can analyze hitting better now doesn’t mean that big names in the past were doing something different

To be clear - players, just don't gamble, it's not that hard. BUT - The Mariners main broadcast is sponsored by 3 different casinos on a daily basis. Let's not pretend like Major League Baseball hasn't completely engulfed its sport in betting

They could have done so much more. They could have truly elevated the roster. What they did was good, truly, unequivocally good. But with the prospect capital they have, they could have made this a World Series roster, and chose not to.
