Angel behind the plate.

Great we get to be the first victims of angel making the wrong ruling and ejecting a pitcher.

Last time we played here Yordan hit the building. Here is hoping for a repeat performance.

Perhaps, but we still need to replace Greinke and shore up some bullpen help

That math checks out.

Man think of how good we would be if games were 5 innings long.

we have 6 guys that can start next year and none of them are named Greinke. I'd rather lock up Correa than replace Greinke

Ok this is a really cool story

Pragmatically, there aren't many impact pitchers available anyway. Lynn is about the only guy that makes sense for us as a vet who can log innings and won't require 4 or 5 years, but I suspect other teams will be more desperate for his services.

For a team with $100M to spend, it's hard to find any player or even group of players that makes more sense than resigning Carlos. I understand the hesitance to go 8+ years but the reality is you have a relatively clean payroll and he'd join LMC as the only guys under contract after 2024 with only $105M committed in 2023 and 2024. You likely have to trade a young player before they make big money (Tucker or a pitcher) but should be able to get a very good prospect haul in return.

Yep. Gotta VPN even for the "Free Game of the Day" if one of your normal blackout teams are involved. MLB leads on so much but their blackout rules are stuck in the 80s

With some of the horrible jobs we have seen lately I'm not sure if Angel even moves the needle right now.

Too close to watch Yordan. You've got to be aware of who is behind the plate.

lmao, I hate the policy. It's statewide. Maybe parts of Oklahoma, too

Part of the MLB's draconian blackout rules -- basically all of Texas is blacked out for both the Rangers and Astros. Literally makes no damn sense but that's the way it is. Cannot wait for their contracts to expire and for them to enter the modern era of TV viewing. Which is beyond odd to say because MLB and BAM have literally been at the forefront of streaming and video technology for over a decade... they even bailed out HBO when they couldn't handle all the GoT traffic.

The astros and rangers have the exact same territory, including all of OK and parts of LA and NM. There is nothing about their contracts expiring that will change the territorial restrictions. MLB teams don't want to give up the regional rights money and without exclusivity that these territories provide they won't get anything close to the same $$$.
