I am starting a contest for my band in which they are looking for a new band name. It is in the March Madness theme. The name that wins the bracket becomes the new band name.

Mark Derosa is catching a LOT of heat right now. Lots of people saying he shouldn’t manage the USA team. Lots of people saying you need a big league manager running the show. As a member of the 2023 WBC team that won a silver medal, and went 2-0 (sniff) for DeRo, let me weigh in on this matter. I saw the interview where he said “tickets were punched”…. I saw it. Is it possible that he didn’t know the exact situation? Maybe. But let’s think clearly on all things people are concerned about really quick:
1. Does he need to have big league experience as a manager to manage the team? The short answer to this is NO. He managed in 23 and knew the format. He knew how the roster needed to be constructed. He knew how teams would be calling and basically telling him how he could use their guys. All teams do it. All teams have parameters on their players. I’d argue he knew this particular system better than the normal manager.
Side note…he’s surrounded by big league managers in Freddi Gonzalez and David Ross. Also, Dino Ebel is widely respected as one of the best baseball men and coaches on the planet.
Side note 2…. As a teammate of his and player of his, I can honestly say he is one of the best ever at bringing people together and in this format the team has to become a team quickly. Nobody better for that.
2. Did he really not know the exact situation? As stated before, he’s surrounded by staff and USA people. Surrounded by media asking questions all day long. Are we really to think that nobody had given him the tea? Please. I believe he misspoke. He would have known the night before that interview all the scenarios.
3. How could he sit Bregs, Bux, Turang, and Harp? Replaced by PCA (2 home runs and top 10 MVP), Gunnar Henderson (homerun and top 2 MVP in 2024), Ernie Clement (single and just set records in the postseason), Paul Goldschmidt (single and 2022 MVP). They hit. The fact is they gave up 8 runs. The team they gave up 8 runs to is hotter than fire and scored another 9 last night.
I wanted them to win that game as much as you did, but sometimes you lose. Let’s just for a second say that DeRo didn’t know the situation. Then the entire staff, hoard of reporters, all the roster… they didn’t know either? It’s hard to get behind that theory. Whoever is still locked in on him being incompetent though, you keeping that same energy if the USA wins and then all the sudden he’s a silver and gold medal winning manager?

Hey @StatpadGame why does 2018 Manny Machado only have 13 bombs when he had 37 that year in total?

I have no idea where to meet a decent woman these days. It honestly feels easier to make a million dollars than to meet a decent woman who you're attracted to who is also attracted to you and doesn't have a ton of baggage. It feels like you have to hit the lottery.
