I honestly only kept doing it because I got mlb.tv free with T-Mobile. It was too much of a pain to pay for it.

Uzzu was reliable for me all last season. I had little to no issues.

Since 2017, I'd use Smart DNS or VPN with MLB.tv with success. Then, last season, it never worked for me, even though I was using the same setup.

With uzzu, I stream the game on my phone and mirror it to the TV. Therev is an explanation when you sign up. I think they have a 4 hour trial, so you can watch one game to try it out. Then, if you still aren't sure, sign up for a week for 7 bucks.

If MLB would get its **** together, streamers wouldn't have to go through this trash every year.

I'll give it a shot, if all else fails I'll just either listen on the radio or keep up with them online. Hell, even the radio is frustrating because I can't listen to a free station on my phone with earbuds.

I've used this app before to listen to games. It's delayed a little bit, but works great when I'm working out or on a run and don't have a need to sync up to the actual second.
It'll give you several selections of stations streaming the games for each team. Sometimes you may need to try two or three before it works, but it should help out.

The New York Mets and Oakland Athletics are in agreement on a trade that would send right-handed starter Chris Bassitt to the Mets, sources familiar with the deal tell ESPN.

I am hearing rumblings of smaller moves coming for the Astros.

Nothing yet earth shattering

— Michael Schwab (@michaelschwab13) March 12, 2022

Astros spoke with the A's about a trade for Chris Bassitt, per source.

Ask was too high from Oakland.

AL West hemorrhaging starting pitching.

Angels might finish in 2nd place by default

I don't see how we have the roster space for several small moves unless those moves are to trade away depth for prospects.

Does Uncle Mike have increased trade value now with the DH in the NL? I love the guy but seems like a sell high situation.

We are not trading Uncle Mike. In terms of trades, I can see Siri going (maybe McCormick if they signed another outfielder), and possibly some of our bullpen guys anchored in AAA who are on the 40 man (Josh James, Enoli).

His career has really fallen off a cliff...

I mentioned last week, but to remind: Difference in highest individual income tax rates for Georgia & Calif. is about $13M more on $175M in Calif., just from my basic math. There are finer points to it, such as rates in various states games are played, etc. But just for an idea.

White Sox not trading Kimbrel after all

Nico Goodrum to the stros

Niko Goodrum signs Astros deal. $2.1M plus incentives.

— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) March 13, 2022

Spent the last 4 years with the Tigers, last year batting average of .214, career BA of .230. I think he's primarily a defensive guy. Seems like this year's Robel.

Warm body that can play SS? This year's Robel.

— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) March 13, 2022

He was non-tendered by the Tigers. He might be worse than Robel. Seems like a "minor league deal with invite to spring training" kind of candidate.

Edit: this is probably why they signed him:

Niko Goodrum has 3 MiLB options so he’s good candidate to shuttle back & forth between mlb and minors https://t.co/ZMlNgrwqBs

Will require them to open up a 40-man spot.

Well we are in on Soler. Would seem to make more sense if you are trading Mike (or Yordan I guess but that's in the snowball's chance in hell category).

The Rangers, Red Sox, Astros, Marlins & Dodgers are in talks with Jorge Soler, per @hgomez27 & @mikedeportes pic.twitter.com/5meSIsMzmN

— FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) March 12, 2022

Uncle Mike is a consistent offensive force, and given we're likely losing Correa (I think it's a forgone conclusion based on the most recent signing), they would be absolute morons to get rid of him. It's obvious by signing Goodrum they were only looking for a cheap stopgap until they could get more minor league games for Pena. I can't see them signing Soler unless they plan on trading some of the guys I mentioned for bullpen help.

The Goodrum thing is really sad to me. At least last year when they got Robel, he wasn't replacing a key position of need. He was a last resort backup at best.

Soler represents a bat to help replace Correa's offense on the cheap. He's depth to help give Brantley & Yordan rest. He's an insurance policy if none of the CFers take off. Also if Brantley falls off a cliff cause he's old. Our postseason OF might be at its best if it's Brantley-Tucker-Soler. We're a little left hand heavy when it comes to power so he's someone we can throw at left handed pitching. At the right price/years he absolutely makes some sense.

Space Cowboys get depth in the outfield

It's really not if he just did basic math. He even points out he's not going into the details of the away games. That makes quite the difference.

Yeah, I'm a fan of Soler. When he hits the ball, he hits it hard. I suspect his market will get too hot for us though with the DH in the NL. He will cost too much money to justify a platoon OF.

Brantley only played in 121 games last year.

I expect about that many (or fewer) this year

Its also no small thing that Soler is money in the postseason.

*The teams are Rangers, Red Sox, Astros, Marlins, Dodgers, Phillies, Twins and Brewers.

Looking at solers stats: https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/solerjo01.shtml

He had a negative WAR last year, and a career batting average of .246. Is this a case of a guy who just got super hot in the postseason? Maybe I'm missing something.

That is not possible.

He is a statcast darling. When he hits the ball, it's hard and he doesn't strike out a ton for a power hitter. Kaufman also screwed him a bit. Based on the balls he hit in 2021, he was projected for only 28 HR in Kaufman but 42 in MMP.

Your focusing on BA is one issue. He has the same OPS at Yuli over the last 3 years.

Look at the baseball savant breakdown. He hits the ball hard and gets on base while playing a **** OF. If he played an above avg OF the he'd be getting 4-5/100 M.
