    How do you solve a problem like Yoshida?

    This is actually a pretty good scouting report in and of itself: a prospect with projectable power you can have high hopes for, but when they get into the show they flail around and ultimately fail due to a lack of hand-eye coordination and situational awareness.

    Sox to trade for Garrett Cooper, Pablo Reyes DFA’d

    He was signed, Gary Cooper? (I’m going to keep trying to make this Sopranos reference until it lands.)

    Let's Talk About MLBTV

    Yes, I can do that too. This is more a question of convenience, as I have an mlb.tv app for my Firestick - and the MLB app lists minor league games for your chosen MLB team. But apparently the games can only be watched live…so if I want to on-demand it after the fact, I have to run it on my...

    Let's Talk About MLBTV

    Thanks to @Rovin Romine and @LogansDad above, I signed in to the MiLB First Pitch app with my MLB.tv account. Verrrrrrry nice to have all this extra content! I notice that they started including the chosen favorite MLB team's minor league affiliates on the home screen of the MLB.tv app...but am...

    Jesus. I was just thinking when I saw the thread bumped that Tim's death still hits me like it's new news. Then I opened it and...somehow the news is even worse. Condolences to the family, especially their kids. Really, really unfair.

    How Many Games Does Anthony Rendon Play In 2024?

    In honor of our dear departed, I'll take 49. The injury is a hamstring that always leaves him two weeks out from coming back, letting the few Angel fans I know out here cling to the hope that he'll come back and help the team.

    Red Sox to be 1st MLB featured on Netflix series

    My main issue: why release this during the 2025 spring training, when actual baseball is firing back up? This would be perfect mid-January content, when the offseason has felt interminable and I am craving any and all baseball. Anyway, as others have said, this isn't aimed at folks like us who...

    Shohei Ohtani is an LA Dodger: 10 years/$700 million

    Well, if he wasn’t gonna sign with the Sox (and he wasn’t), I guess having him play two miles from my house is a decent option. Pour one out for the Angels fans who thought they had a chance of keeping him. And, yes, they were out there. “Ownership just needs to show him they’ll surround him...

    Which MLB franchise will be the next to win their first WS?

    Though not a direct fan like @Sad Sam Jones, I'd rather Cleveland win ahead of any of these expansion teams. And I'd much rather all of them wait 20 years as the Red Sox run off an unprecedented two-decade winning streak. Just kidding...I don't want the Sox to stop at 20. (I voted Mariners...

    2023 WS Game/Discussion Thread: 2021 100+ Game Loser Edition

    I gotta say: the "it's been 51 years in Texas and 62 years as a franchise" call made me happier than anything else. Wherever the team may be and whoever is on the team who I may not like, I love when long-suffering fans finally get a taste of glory. It's a little piece of 2004 in another part of...
