Yes, but that would mean being a Sox fan.

Really though, it'd be slightly easier to root for them if it wasn't for that baffling manager hiring.

if you can deal with the ricketts for a decade+ you can deal with larussa for a couple of years

That's not a terrible argument. It would be better than turning into a Cardinals fan anyway. I was just hoping at least Rizzo would stick around longer.

i think he'll re-sign with the cubs eventually

a true fan never changes their mind about anything

LaRussa sounded half dead in a dugout interview Sunday.

Deciding between a Nats hat for Soto and Robles or a Braves hat for Acuna and Albies.

One looks like a wegman’s logo

and the other has a fanbase of white people that impersonate native americans together 3-5 times a week en masse

could be referring to either team here

lol forgot about the washington football team

eh, i don't mean to harp on the barves too much. so much of baseball was born and marinated in racism, no team is close to clean

but yeah, the tomahawk chant should never have existed and it's crazy that they still do it

mets are trying to give lindor a 12-year-deal, through his age 39 season?

i mean, i love lindor, but these deals always seem bonkers to me. betts got 12 years (also through age 39?), tatis jr got 14 years (through age 35)

i would expect all these guys to age better than a pujols, of course. and maybe rich teams can just offload the players and eat the cost when they start to suck, who knows

Zach_TBD (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 30 March 2021 16:40 (three years ago) link

tatis deal ending at age 35 is fine, that's not that old; starting it now, when he has yet to play a full season of baseball, is what's weird to me

na (NA), Tuesday, 30 March 2021 16:46 (three years ago) link

The Mets want to give him 10, he wants 12. The excess value of the front half makes up for decline unless they fall off a cliff immediately like Pujols.

first stadium name in camelCase?

SLATER SCOOP: Miami Marlins are renaming ballpark to "loanDepot park," multiple sources tell me.@Danilo_Sant0s first mentioned team would soon be changing name.
