This is gonna sound really corny but there’s no other sport that can beat how well baseball tells the story of failure. Every professional sports league involves a laundry list of hurdles to get over before you officially make it and those hurdles for each sport are not to be underplayed. But the inherent hurdles woven into the game of baseball itself are what makes shit like this so beautiful to watch and so authentic of a moment for the guys on the field. There’s no other sport you get paid millions to fail more than 75% of the time. And for these guys over seas (many of whom came from very little relative to the lives they live now), all they knew was working over those failures. Questioning since the time they picked up the bat if they’d even make it to the states to play ball let alone make it in the league. No other sport do you have to climb over dozens of 0-for slumps, dozens of bad stretches of play over the course of 162 games. And it’s why nobody should ever tell these dudes to tone down their emotion on the field man they deserve to react with every ounce of passion they’ve poured into this cruel ass sport their entire careers.

@SanAntonioTim I think that Brown/Burrows/Imai could be the best 1-2-3 we have had since 2022. Unfortunately I also think that Cristian Javier and LMJ are going to be awful. So bad in fact, that Weiss and Blubaugh will deserve to get innings over them.

I’m very excited about the Astros pitching this season. I think they have a chance to be one of the top pitching staffs in baseball.

@ScrawnySlugger Really hope they somehow make K/9 a worthwhile stat this year. In years past I always found my self actively AVOIDING K/9 because of how much overall points it takes up, despite the fact that it absolutely does not conflate with run prevention when simulating.

It is confirmed: BB/9 has been removed from franchise mode. One of the most significant stats to inflate pitcher performance in simulation is gone. Honestly, good riddance! The control rating always felt sufficient here

This is how Tourette's can impact the people who live with it. I'm sure demanding that they issue relentless apologies for their tics would be a massive help, right?
