So the good ones are taking a sabbatical and Angel gets promoted. Sure. What could possibly go wrong. I can't wait until he's named home plate umpire to start the WS.


Too bad Ron Kulpa isn't on the list of people sitting out...


This is the name I was looking for

the Betts extension is insane, but the Dodgers are actually in good shape payroll-wise until Bellinger hits free agency after 2023.

Kershaw's contract expires after 2021. So not much money tied up beyond 2021 at the moment

It's stupid crap like that where I want the Astros to stomp each team into dust and do it with huge bat flips.

I'm very much looking forward to that Dodgers series.

Boys better be locked in and start hot this season. Blast the mariners and then beat the Dodgers. Put MLB on notice and make'em hate you more.

Oh, and I'm very much looking forward to hearing the Dodgers pregame comments now that they actually have to play us this year. They were willing to talk a lot of crap knowing they didn't have to play us with the normal schedule.

Pretty sure Bregman and Correa have long memories. Other boys better too. Just too bad LMJ isn't going to mix it up with them this first time around.

The first page of this thread is awesome. It is missing the Todd Frazier strikeout out though.

for the 2-game set...

the Astros will see Buehler and Kershaw. Didn't know Buehler was considered LAD's #5 starter.

the Dodgers will see tbd and JV.

however this sets up LMj, Greinke, and James vs. the Angels next weekend

5. Houston Astros

2019 record: 107-55
2020 win total over/under: 35.5
Odds to win World Series: +800
Swish's Take: "There's a lot surrounding the Astros right now, but I think with Dusty Baker as the manager, he's definitely going to get those boys on track."
Gig’em Aggies!

ESPN's power rankings.

Astros have higher World Series odds but the rays are better?

I've missed all of you boys. My piss is hot and ready to roll....


For anyone who watched the game the other night against KC I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed and got pissed listening to the away broadcasters. In the 1st when Altuve and Breg's jizzed on their pitches the broadcasters made subtle comments like "he hit that almost like he knew it was coming".

Well yes, when you cock a fastball and your expecting it that normally happens. I'm glad we won't have to put up with that crap Until the playoffs

Had our Fantasy Baseball Draft last night. What a wonderful thing it was to sit there and think only about baseball for a couple of hours. Team Name; Everyone Knows It's Greinke. Drafted Yordan even though I'm afraid he's going to turn into Rob Deer.

thank god real sports are back. Had a blast on this board down the stretch last year. Good to be back.

Just awful. As if a 16 team playoff wasn't bad enough.

Picking your opponent is not enough of an award to the division winners. Especially if the first round series is 5 or fewer games.

Does anyone want to see .500 or sub .500 teams in the playoffs?

It would be 3 game series.

This would be enormous advantage if there is a wildcard team that didn't have its pitchers set up to throw best starters, or if there is injury issue.

(Of course, it also gives the team picked easy bulletin board material, and even though its the playoffs, every little bit helps)
