Nah, he had no spot with Seimien and Seager on the team.
Semien at 2nd, Correa at SS, & Seager at 3rd. Seager doesn't project to stay at SS long term.

A-Rod played in 485 of 486 games for them, in 3 seasons won an MVP (and finished 2nd and 6th), 2 GG and 3 SS while averaging 52 HR and an OPS over 1.000...and it STILL turned out to be a bad deal.Farmer1906 said:
Rangers making room for Correa.And the trades begin!
— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) March 12, 2022
The Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers are in agreement on a deal that will send shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa to the Twins, sources familiar with the situation tell ESPN.
They better ought have held on to Falefel for the 50 games a season Carlos is going to be out with a bad back.
I believe he was referring to Kiner falafel having no need
Quick Peña tricep update. We're in good hands regardless of what Correa decides.

Mitch Garver hit 31 HR in 2019. So obviously big power. https://t.co/uR9ZAgQihq

What they got back...
Jorge Soler would be a good addition

Where you are wrong is about it being a non-issue for teams not close to it. The lower it is, the more teams are in running for free agents and lower it is means more money distributed
Except most teams are so far under it it's meaningless. $232MM versus $252MM doesnt matter. They are Are choosing not to spend. If you are at $150MM you have tons of room. So whatever the lower limit is doesn't matter. It's not keeping the top teams from spending and it's not forcing players salaries lower to force them to choose the teams below the CBT.
Look out #Astros, the #Rangers are coming. #MLB

Mathguy gets it. Players needed a penalty floor. Under 30M and you lose your first round pick. Under 50 M and you lose your second round pick. Big spenders keep spending big while driving pay up with the bottom tier.

Did MLB get rid of the local blackouts for MLB.TV? I'm looking to see if cutting the cord on DirecTV is an option this season. I can stream the regular season on Fubo but Fubo doesn't have TBS for playoff baseball. Are there no streaming services that offer AttSportsnet, TBS, FS1, and the MLB Network?

I used uzzu tv last year. I used to do MLB.tv, but had issues with the smart dns and the service past year. Uzzu is 20 bucks a month, similar to a full season of MLB.tv.
Not yet. There was talk last year by the commissioner about establishing a subscription service for in-market games, but I don't think it was something they would look at before 2023/2024.Teddy Perkins said:

There is a tentative agreement in the new CBA that states, "if the All-Star Game is tied after 9 innings, the game will be decided by a Home Run Derby."

The #Bluejays rotation is really nice:
— Robert Flores (@RoFlo) March 12, 2022
Berrios, Ryu, Manoah, Kikuchi and Gausman.
They might be my pick to win the AL East
Don't see how anybody can pick against Tampa to win the East at this point. It's like picking against the Astros, until somebody unseats them it's their division

RoFlo is right about a lot of things. This is not one of them. To me, Toronto's rotation is a collection of #2-#4 starts. You can argue Gausman and Ryu are#1s, but if they are, they are low end. Berrios, imo, is overrated as well.
Jake Meyers won't be available till probably end of May, per @brianmctaggart

AL West signing
the Mariners may be taking a big step back in 2022...as in 4th or 5th place.
losing some key pieces.
Kikuchi was not great last year, but he started 29 games and covered 157 innings

Yankees as of last night anyway were still in on Freeman. They love him, but geographically they may have a hill to climb (he lives in Atlanta and the OC) https://t.co/nU5aIdTnTJ

And I'm praying to the baseball gods that they never ever allow a game to be tied through ninge innings.bearkatag15 said:There is a tentative agreement in the new CBA that states, "if the All-Star Game is tied after 9 innings, the game will be decided by a Home Run Derby."

Is uzzu reliable? I looked into it, but have seen some terrible reviews. Could I possibly get around the blackouts on mlb using a VPN? I've read it works for some and doesn't for others. I'd like to hear it from someone other than some random article found on google.
B-Company 2009
I did it last season, it worked but every 5th game or so I had to delete the app and log back in like they figured me out even with the vpn.
That's frustrating, I'll have to keep looking around. I cut the cord 3 years ago, but watched the games by using my parents Direct atV log in. Unfortunately they decided to cut the cord in December. So Selfish
