    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    That's a fun win from where they started. Even if Holmes blew that, would have been some nice signs

    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    That was a lot of buildup for a pinch hitter that ultimately has a career 70 OPS+ and 3 HR since 2014

    Soto really running that one out. He's pretty slow right, did not expect that to be close

    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    It's amazing in a game where the Yankees have hit into 3 DPs and given up 4 runs already that somehow it has probably been a worse experience for Astros fans

    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    Some bottom percentile ABs from Stanton and Judge, and Rizzo gets a chance to injure both hands. Not the best sequence

    Framber's control in non-bases-loaded situations is Ankiel grade today

    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    A 10 pitch inning in the pitch clock era is almost jarringly brisk

    3/28: Juan Soto Is A Yankee

    Taking that swing in that situation just is lame. People talk about situational hitting of moving a leadoff double over to 3rd, etc, but i think not hitting the ball on the ground with runners on and less than 2 outs is probably a lot more impactful in the long run.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    Potentially so, although he intentionally deferred his income (probably mostly as a mutual tax avoidance strategy with the Dodgers - CA state tax for Ohtani, MLB CBP tax for the Dodgers), so the fucktillion will have to come from endorsements for now.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    I went through this earlier in this thread, but I don't think $4.5M in cash is insignificant to Ohtani, especially in Oct/Nov last year, when the transfers were sent. Between baseball (~$40M in MLB salaries) and endorsements he may have made $100M in his career thru 2023. At his income level in...

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    The feds will start caring if they get lied to, which is why lying is a really dumb move rather than admitting to paying off a debt or gambling. And making a false statement about "massive thefts" to Manfred may not get you in jail, but it may get you suspended without pay for a meaningful time...
