doyerpacos seething kek
/wbc/sisters, where will we call home??
Los Doyers del Japon advance to the quarterfinals.
I get that handshakes/ fist bumps typically aren’t a thing during the game but if Ohtani can applaud his Doyer teammate HSK after he hit a 2 run dinger in a very close Japan vs Korea game, I figure it can’t cause Cal physical pain to humor his autistic teammate RandyIt’s really not that serious unless they’re in a military mindset or something

>>153804659>>153804681Nobody will remember in a week.
>>153804913>Kondo benched in a meaningless game Ohtani and Suzuki not playing makes sense but why not put the shitter in to help him regain his stride? Wtf is Ibata doing
>>153804965>kondoSato should replace him at this point
>>153804852LMAO i thought it was over
I thought USA and Mexico was gonna be a lot more intense. Anyway, happy all the Houston chicanos left the stadium sad
KONKOYO「PLAY BALL」
>>153805035FAGGOTxico!
if this isnt a 5 innings mercy rule then Japan should seppuku

what do old Japanese people think about anime?disgust?
Morning everyone. Hope you all have a good Tuesday.

enjoy him, blue jays
>>153804913>ohtranny ran scared of Satoriakek
>Satoria’s last game ever>can’t face Ohtani one last time This is so fucking GAY. They should have him pinch hit
>Would you like to guess the nickname for his fastball?>It's "The Cannon."gotta give it up to the Fox sports booth for this top tier commentary
>The CannonKek
kek satoriaGOD
bros Strike 'em out Throw 'em outs are so fucking beautiful...
>>153805128There are many people who dislike Vtubers, not anime.
Yeah, forget about mercy-rule, this game is going 9.
Samurai Japan really are nothing without their MLB stars huh. If NPB keeps using dead balls like the retards they are they’ll be overtaken by Australia and Taiwan and Korea in a few years
Sir, a second Satoria nuke has hit Japan
>>153805147different sides of the same coin
>>153805151erm, gaijin. have you ever heard of someone named “SATO”??
>>153805151many people are saying this
how do dead balls affect player development?thought itd be the opposite like training in a weighted vest
>>153805151Sato is our second best hitter next ohtani but our 7th, 8th and 9th will be automatic out
I REFUSE to.post about the WBC in a filthy general We require a matchie for this game
Electrician Satoria sugoi desu
Have they been using NPB's deadball for the Tokyo pool? Shit isn't flying at all.
>>153805174have you seen the guy in the jap dugout who looks identical to roger tuivasa sheck?keep an eye out, hes by ohtani
Jap shitters cannot handle Satoria kino
why did(n't) he do it bros?
>>153805185he rasis
>>153805185He bought into Judge’s oorah semper fi “down in the trenches” stoicism
how are the mets already eliminated if the season hasn't even started?
>Ohtani will never hand you a baseball directlyIt's not fucking fair, bros
>>153805192>>153805195kek
>>153805195Cool it with the antisemitism buddy
>>153804659
okay, this isn’t funny anymore
>murakekmi
>>153805195Arent those the Dodgers?
Could have brought in Ohtani for one AB but nooo the dodgers and insurance merchants ruined the fun
>>153805236you'd be closer if you said the Marlins here over the Dodgers
fuck
watching the czechs get out of jams is really really entertaining>catcher should have chased the runner in the pickle half-way down the line, thrown to 2nd to get the out, and have the pitcher covering the plate to catch the runner turning back around to try and score
give those czechiebears a chance
>>153805238He and Seiya are gonna be forced to play the way things are goingMan, this team is so mid compared to the one from 2023.
Guys I miss Bauer. Bauer if you're reading this please play for at least 3 more years. Korea, Europe, I don't care. Anyone else miss him?
>>153805267bauer here. thx for the support
>>153805267Shut up Trevor nobody likes youEven the nips realized how big of a tool you are
I'd rather have the Czech team back than Israel, as would most people. It's not fair that they will have to qualify next time
CAM ON CZECHIA SCORE SUM FOOKIN GOALS
Japan is throwing the game on purpose, right? Just to be kind to the Czechs? Like there’s no way they’re actually in a real stalemate against the weakest team on earth right?
>>153805294honorably letting Satoria go out on top
>>153805294That's not true lol
>>153805294They kinda suck without Ohtani and Seiya
why is he retiring at age 29?
>>153805307leaving the game before the game leaves him
Welp a rematch with Ohtani wasn’t meant to be. Thanks a lot Ibata
>>153805307For the love of the game
I was moved by the standing ovation
>>153805307Not retired yet
>>153805317Me too, that's gotta feel great if you're Satoria
>>153805315Hey /mlb/, is it "For love of the game" or "For the love of the game?" Which is correct?
>>153805307Retiring from national team
>>153805307It’s just his last WBC, he’s not completely retiring from baseball yetFor all we know he’ll come to the Olympics
we're getting emotional standing ovations for Czech pitchers in Japan and team USA acts like they're better than the WBC and that it's not a big deal to anyone
Why did the outfielder jump?
this Japan team is going to beat the US and DR?who told you this?
no game bread?
>>153805336I totally understand what Aussie Bro is trying to say.
>>153805322This is embarrassing. For the longest time I thought the movie was called like that. Always sounded weird to me but I assumed it was some English thing I didn't know lmao. I'll procede to commit sudoku now.
>>153805322I always thought it was “The for love the of game”Is that wrong?
Bro that Jewish hate ad in a baseball game really made me wince. Read the room we're here to watch baseball.
>>153805346Especially hilarious after THAT viral clip came out yesterday. Kek
>>153805346we didn’t have a Jewish hate ad, we had a live action ONE PIECE ad with Tony Tony Chopper looking like first version CGI sanics gotta go fastI think I would have preferred the Jew ad
Theyre going to make manga for the next 25 years where the final boss is a bearded European pitcher who throws 60mph curveballs and changeups that no Japanese hitter can figure out
>>153805347what clip
>>153805348>Tony Tony Chopper looking like first version CGI sanics gotta go fastCome on it’s not that bad Just needed to be a little fluffier
>>153805349kek
>>153805352https://x.com/i/status/2031002466993553517
we might actually lose this game kek
Japan playing their B team playing against electricians, engineers and factory workers is not doing well
Good morning /mlb/
>>153805360starting to get to the point in the game where anything could happen
>>153805360You deserve to desu
canada beats cuba and is in?so the pr v. canada game is pointless?
>Going the distance Vs Japan(You are here)>Beating Japan>Becoming the world's most successful boreball empire You are witnessing history laddos
>>153805358Gradually I began to continue feeling the same way I have been feeling about them for a long time now
>>153805363OHAYO
imagine this goes to extras lol
The Czechs not recruiting a bunch of 9th generation losers like the jews is pretty based but they could really used one or two guys who can actually hit the ball
>>153805374Czech declared winners by default when 3 Japanese players die of karoshi in the 28th inning>should have czech’d themselves before they rzech’d themselves, the Czechoslovakian coach was quoted as saying
>Needing small-ball vs fucking SzechiaAbsolutely embarrassing
>>153805360already clinched number 1 in the pool, letting the lowest ranked team have the biggest upset of the tourney with no downside would be ultrakino
>already got 3 kids >let your wife get blacked>ultrakino
Murakami is going to be a huge bust isnt he
Satoria, come to the Chunichi Dragons
Can Czechia actually do it? Also if this goes OT does this have a ghost runner?
>>153805401just mad you didn't come up with "ultrakino" on your own and that >your team didn't qualify for the quarterfinals :^)
>>153805416at the end of the day, we won the hearts and minds of the world and thats more valuable than any trophy
fucking ouchsaw the hydrostatic shock on that one in slomo
>>153805419so true I don't even have a comeback for it...
why can't americans control themselves
Aw Murakami
fuck Moony(Murakami)
>>153805415I think pools round games do have ghost runners, but don't quote me on that.
damn he missed 3 bunts
Wish Kikuchi's wife was around she's been Japan's motivation
WAKATSUKI
no...
>>153805433this is seriously starting to feel like pro wrestling do they have kayfabe in baseball?
czhoked
LMAOTHAT'S how they score fucking kek
>jap dugout celebrated that
>can't stop being a fat fuck even on Jap diet>can't respect the literal emperor of Japan>can't not strikeout against part-timersI constantly call Debukami a bum and its still not as much as he deserves.
I’m rooting for Japan but slowly beginning to dislike this year’s team
>>153805442yeah that was like the lite version of how oz imploded itself against SK
>>153805447He and the Whute Sox deserve each other
>RFer got charged with the ErrorWhat?! His throw was on the money lmao
kinokiller...
And that's GG
czechover
>>153805449this shuto guy is a godly runner, and some of their fielders are really good but there’s a lot of dead weight damn wasn’t expecting that hit
>>153805082I want to sex that thing.
>>153805460That's a drawing. Or an hologram?
>>153805449Ibata is a poor manager and the team lacks unity and mojo. If they don't figure it out they should get an early return ticket because they won't be in Miami long.
>>153805463its an anime
>>153805466who are they going to play in the quarters
>>153805419we are all Zachary Levi rn
>>153805473Venezuela or dominica. I hope they will absolutely humiliate us so we can finally have some urgency for the change
>>153805477wtf this isnt the same guy as jim from the office?
>>153805466I have an uncomfortable feeling you might be rightI want them to win but the pieces might not be fitting together well enough
>MIDki pinch hitting for CHADto>"They're getting serious now!"What the fuck is this announcer talking about?
>>153805366not getting blown out by panama would be good too
Sato Grand Slam timeAh nevermind
>>153805478yeah I think there has been some significant management complacency. It tends to happen when a company or group is doing too well for too long and they start assuming that they’ll always be in first place. The management structure is usually the first part to slip up. It happened with certain automakers a while back, it was ugly.
>>153805485The vibe is just off here, I don't know. It was kinda weird at Premier12 too. Again I blame Ibata since he's the common denominator. His raging hard-on for Kikuchi and Sugano is also bad news.
Is Zachary Levi washed? why is he doing this?
Czech...
none of japan's big bats have been delivering so far, oaky is saving his energy for when he gets back to spring training
What is Czech Republic known for?
kinogenocide.........
MURAKAMI SAMAYOU DOUBTED!!!!!
>>153805514pretty good beer

White Sox Moony,gomen
insane how i jinx literally everything into the opposite happening and by posting this oaky will now strike out swinging
Wow Tubs actually did something, look at that
>9 run bottom of the 8thWas Japan just playing with their food?
>>153805514the Sudetenland, also people forgetting that it’s not Czechoslovakia anymore
>>153805527just imagine how much better they'd be if you were managing them
>>153805510Yeah he got cancelled I think
Team Japan should give up 10 runs for entertainment purposes
>>153805528I certainly hope soCzech deserved some mercy after all their other gamesif I were a coach trying to help the other team save face I would probably tell my guys to get serious in the 8th inning too, it’s too dangerous to leave it until the 9th.
>>153805535Chuck Bartowski and Jim Halpert used to be my heroes
>>153805539Jim Halpert is a different actor
interesting how it cut off right at 9 since a 10 run difference would cancel the 9th inning and reduce advertiser money, plus czech wouldn’t be able to say they went the distance
>>153805543always thinking, aren't you?
>>153805541coulda fooled me
>>153805536it wouldn’t hurt to give them a pity fuck or two at this point, but probably don’t want to make it too obvious
>>153805547both of them basically only work on slop projects so they might as well be the same guy, Levi is just more openly chuddy
>>153805422>americansAll I see is a bunch of mexicans there.
>>153805552Jim Halpert married Emily Blunt so he wins
Merciless
>>153805545I’ve probably been on this site too long and started to assume everything is riggedthe scripted GETs on certain boards have ruined my faith in everything
Japan loving Satoria, a guy they mercilessly obliterated, makes me wonder if they adored Koreans during the war too
Satoria Truly amazing
>>153805570The Czech team is likeable, they know they aren't winning anything so they're just having fun with whatever results they can get and are good sports about it.
>>153805564just fucking with you. we all get that way from time to time.
Regardless of our overall results, I'm really proud of our scrappy little team. This time around we actually looked almost like a real deal instead of a bunch of tourists. And with our youth going pretty strong we have a decent chance of making it back and becoming a stable part of global baseball world
>>153805577The Czech Republic, and especially Satria, was truly amazing. I hope baseball becomes even more popular in the Czech Republic.
How come the Czech Republic get into baseball of all places? Why not Germany or Italy or France but the Czech Republic? What caused this? It's very impressive.
>>153805573>>153805577yeah I was impressed with the Czech team’s attitude and perseveranceI will always prefer a team that loses with dignity over a team that wins and acts like assholes about it. If you know what I mean.
>>153805279code?
>>153805597wbc has silly rules for qualifying
>>153805597Italy is in the tournament and Germany lost in the qualifiers to Brazil and Colombia
>>153805592it sucks that they brought more this year than 2023 and ended up shorter, I really hope that doesn't dampen their spirits>>153805597>>153805607czechs qualified legitimately, if holding samurai japan scoreless through 7 innings doesn't prove that I don't know what does
>>153805616kinda silly that not finishing last in your pool 3 years ago automatically qualifies you for this year
>>153805619I'm mad Nicaragua couldn't do shit and guaranteed Israel's return
>>153805606Unfortunately, she is not a JAV actress.She is the younger sister of Miyagi Daiya, who was pitching earlier.https://www.youtube.com/@yaa-channel0501
>>153805622if Israel doesn’t come back, you don’t get to enjoy them getting beaten againit’s a fair tradeoff, I feel.
I wonder who will replace the Czechs in 2029 Pool C. I hope it's the filipinos with anthony volpe huehuehue
>>153805632>I hope it's the filipinosDo Filipinos even care about baseball, at all? I thought Filipinas was a basketball nation.
>>153805632Israel will demand to move to this pool because the current pool is antisemitic and unfair and it's closer to their location than Florida and they'll be replaced in the Florida pool with Argentina or something
these 2 have to be the silliest teams to get a guaranteed spot in 3 years
>>153805636best in SEA, ranked 5th in Asia, ranked 24th in the world, baby.
>>153805514Prague
Is there a way to know how do you make it to the WBC classifiers? I hope Peru can make it to the next WBC.
>>153805637isn’t the Israel team all Jewish American MLB players? One qualification is that you need to be eligible for citizenship or have a citizen parent, so being ethnically or maternally Jewish makes you automatically eligible for the Israel team, as I understand it.
>>153805650all the other teams will have to play qualifiers for the 5th spot of the pools in 2029, 4 total like this:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_World_Baseball_Classic_qualification
>>153805657It says that the method of qualification was being part of the 2023 World Baseball Classic pool stage top four, but, for example, Peru has never been to the WBC before. What do then?
>>153805667If she's not a JAV actress, is she a model or something?
>>153805631https://x.com/MLBONFOX/status/2031084497299509506The whole world was so happy with this result.
>>153805673She is a TV personality who loves baseball.https://www.instagram.com/inamura_ami/?hl=ja
>>153805680Thank you. By any chance, are you native Japanese or American?
Doggie doos kek
>>153805677and then everybody started clapping, right reddit chads?
>”How do you think I should respond to Cal Raleigh? How should I put it to him?I want to say it in four languages.”>First in Spanish: “The only thing he should be thankful for is having such great parents. He’s very well educated, thank God. I was lucky enough to see them a few days ago at the hotel. They came over to greet me, gave me a big hug, and were genuinely proud to see me again.>After that, I want to give it to him straight Cuban style: What he has to do is fuck off!”>Mexican style: “Go to hell!”>And in English: “That fake ass “good to see you” he hit me with? He can shove it straight up his ass. I’m out.”Memeiners clubhouse is imploding before they even have the chance to choke a game away to shit teams.
>>153805691pretty sure that poster is Japanese, while I’m a gaijinyou can tell us apart because he is polite while I am a jerk
>>153805657It seems Spain was very close in qualifying if we go by the results.
>>153805700From what I can tell from spanish speakers commenting on the situation, Randy is dead ass serious about this. “vete la verga” is apparently only used for the most serious situations. This nigga is mad as fuck at Cal.
>>153805700My Reddit tells me he's big freakin' mad
>>153805629kek I was jokingbut srsly she needs to quit baseball and do jav
>>153805731>“vete la verga” is apparently only used for the most serious situationslmao, if he used that, then yes, he is very mad
>>153805691I'm a Japanese person who doesn't understand English at all.I've been here for the past year and a half because I find /mlb/ more fun than 5ch.I'm very happy if my Google Translate is finally getting closer to native English.I was banned from the Angels reddit two years ago for being a bot.
>>153805746Ruh roh Memeiners
>>153805760If they had fans here, they'd be very mad
>>153805700all cal had to do is say “sorry it’s because of the pine tar”even if it’s because he didn’t want to touch him because he’s black and he was afraid that his hand would turn black, all he had to say was “It’s the pine tar”I use that excuse all the time and I don’t even play baseball
>>153805700grow the fuck up
Thinking of wearing a Rockies cap ironically
>>153805700Kwabarena
>>153805645Why didnt they try to qualify?
Thank you Koyo-senpai for your hard work at the WBC. Hololive in MLB is going to be strong in 2026 with Hololive Night happening at every ballpark.
rockies
Why is Hololive going popular with baseball of all things?
>>153805866Listen Peru-chan, Hololive and cute things in general at the ballpark makes lots of money.
>>153805841Because Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia, and Thailand are better than them.
>>153805866It's not, don't let the resident retard tell you otherwise
I got a question for you. I know the thread is called /mlb/ but do you guys also watch the Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB)? What it is like? What do you think of it? How do you watch it?
>>153805935WBC kinda made me want to watch it now actually
>>153805935I genuinely would watch it but I don't know which streaming services has them.

>>153806315anime is their mascot
Hololive isn’t anime
CUBS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
>>153806315They wanted their mascot to be the Joker setting fire to a pile of money, but there were copyright issues
>>153806335this says a lot about our society
>>153806315Half of the MLB teams don't even have a costumed mascot.
>>153805935We talk about NPB here too because it's the Dodgers' farm system
>>153805935>Expecting /mlb/ to discuss NPBThese niggas don't even want to talk about Bananaball.
>>153806322Why don't you aim that Poodrepaco Mococo?
>>153806456Not true; the doggiedoos, stankeedoo ‘ems, and anaels are the only teams without mascots
Is it true cowl raley ruined the mariners locker room chemistry on orders from Aaron Judge?
>>153806501The Poodres are about to lose their friar mascot due to how the Franciscan Friar has a long history of abuse and racism towards Native Americans.

now that the AL west has gone from "big joke!" to "its not even funny anymore...", they should just repurpose that division and make it a relegation division or something

>>153806667>>153806676I like hoi4 and eu5 but it's taxing on my cpu and I only have a stock fan so I'm waiting on playing it more until an upgrade which will happen never ever at this point.
>>153805466>unitywhat do you mean by this? baseball is all about individual numbers and stats, no?
>>153806315>>153806501closest dodgers have is this bobblehead mascot
>>153806655Conveniently segues into ww3, post it when you can
>>153806746i'm glad they're having fun but these elaborate home run trots are getting retarded
isnt it maximum munchy's job to be the mascot
>>153806762dodgers only recognize one mascot
>>153806767someone said it in the last thread but... act like you've been there before.
>>153805168I think the problem is it changes yplour swing path since you want more line drives than fly balls. There's no "weight" difference, just a CoR that makes the ball more or less springy
>>153806751Eu5 like all paradox titles will need a couple of years of dlc to flesh out, it's still an ocean wide but a puddle deep. And HOI4 is incredibly bloated, but fortunately there are alot of good mods that will get rid of all the irrelevant countries that spam divisons to slow down your cpu (this is necessary to run a multiplayer game and not have the server desync every 5 minutes). If you have never tried Victoria 2 I would recommend picking it up (along with the heart of darkness DLC) when it goes on sale.
>>153806811>As of March 2026, the Dodgers have announced they can no longer formally renew his contract due to MLB eligibility rules, ending a seven-year arrangement designed to provide him with health insurance.>loses healthcare access>goes off meds>homeless>wanders the streets>ends up on skid row>literally a bum for lifeit's hard not to be romantic about baseball
>>153805332American fans are soulless for the most part, it's nothing new
>>153806832I actually purchased Vicky2 before A House Divided came out and it's why I'm a fan of the studio. HoI doesn't kick my fans to 100% but yeah, eu5 is a good release but needs a few years of flavor and mechanical changes.
>>153806792Fuck off Chudge
>>153805577My favorite part of the WBC is seeing the teams with little historical precedence struggle for survival. Czech fought hard with what they had.

>>153806999fuck no
Why did padres fans tell me cease was bad?
>>153806999Why would The Dominicans want to become part of the Israeli vassal state?
Hey everyone, just woke up from a week long eyebrow surgery. Who is Team Israel up against in the quarterfinal??
>>153805460I admit I never really cared for Koyori at first but she's really grown on me and suddenly I find her really attractive with her love of baseball HELP
>>153807047>line break between reply link and text Wincinnati has fallen U_U
>>153806999That would actually be a downgrade for Dominicans. The Dominican Republic is actually the best caribbean country by far.
>>153805935I watch it every once in a while, mainly on fridays and saturdays because most games start at 9 or 10pm my time.
>>153807080>The Dominican Republic is actually the best Caribbean country by far.What makes it the best Caribbean country?
>>153807086Do you watch it with English or Japanese commentary?
>>153807094Japanese always, mainly because it's the only feed available on vipbox
>>153807089>politically stable>not a tax haven>doesn't survive only on tourism, it actually has a healthy industry as wellThe only problem I see going against them is the Haitians, but still, nothing worrisome so far.

>>153807099Very cool. Though you don't worry about missing anything?>>153807124I see. That's pretty interesting. Though I also said it because like 25% of the population of DR lives in the US, especially around the New York area, which is baseball territory.
>>153807130he shall plant the seeds of beisbol in south america
>>153807175>Though you don't worry about missing anything?Not really, I have a hard time paying attention to commentary for 3 hours anyways.
sanchez is just teo 2.0, somehow with even worse defense

Raleigh is overrated as hell, he’s going to want way too much money. Get rid of em especially if he’s toxic to his teammates.
>>153807434Retard, he got extended last offseason for peanuts.
Fransisco Alvarez just hit one over the batters eye
I expect Raleigh to have a bad slump this season. I don't see him hitting 40 HRs since pitchers will just walk him in close games.
>>153807124It must suck knowing they have to share Hispanola with with a failed country.
>>153804852blow gays could've ruined ohtanis legacy here.
>>153807524why would they walk him when they can just strike him out?
Have any anons gone to the Oakland Athletics of Sacramento games? I am debating taking the train the night before and getting this /fa/ hat as a souvenir
Cal is dumb af. Latinams are super emotional, just bump the fist
>>153807565it is a triple A park and not a particularly good one in a shit part of town. I also would not be giving any money to that shit that should still be in Oakland.
>>153807130Poat Recker or let bro query
>>153807590Is West Sacramento super ghetto and shooty?Oakland did it to itself tons of new stadium proposals were shot down over gay shit like gentrification
>>153807009>padresHe's insanely durable, great pitcher who had some very unfortunate luck either with sequencing or pitching from the stretch
>>153807130he's in /nfl/ as well. he's going full ameriboo
>>153807632Glad I’m not the only one who’s noticed
>>153807604I did a road trip in December 2024 and snooped around and promptly left. Shit everywhere and the aura of imminent robbery. Sacramento itself is pretty soulless. Just motels and blocky government buildings.
>>153807524He's going to actually have someone on in front of him, and if you walk him there's Julio and Naylor to deal with.
>>153807651Julio maybe, but Naylor is overrated.
>>153807642Guess a day game might be better, it would be like 100 for the amtrak ticket and 130 or so for a hotel room, guess I might just find some other game.Maybe Amtrak down to San Diego and catch the Pantone 294 one.
>>153806835Couldn't they just hire him as an office gofer in title only so he can get employee health insurance? Or don't the Dodgers give their office staff health insurance?
my pitcher just knocked your team's batter on their ass accidentally, how you like that?
>>153806999When Donny needs a distraction, although that would probably make Stephen Miller's head explode.
>>153807660Josh is great, it's why everyone said he was dumb for signing for so much less than what Pete got.
>>153807671go see the River Cats
>>153807725I dunno why we talk money in baseball when there is no cap. It is literally meaningless. What matters is the results that these guys produce and of course wins. I just look up and down the M's line up and I just do not see anyone who could reasonably perform above what they did last season other than maybe Julio and the rest, especially Cal, being strong regression candidates.
>>153807604>shot down over gentrificationFischer was never entertaining Oakland unless he got some ridiculous, bend-over-backwards sweetheart deal
>>153807769Why would you blow your own money satisfying a bunch of gay area hipsters when the goyim of vegas will give you one for free?
>>153807708BOOOOOO
>>153807780He took arguably a worse deal in Vegas for a smaller market and seating capacity. His only hope is the stupid "neutral WS in Vegas" shit Manfred was floating
Vegas is a dying city. The population will be on a decline once the A's start playing over there.
>>153807826umm sweetie, Las Vegas is a hockey city, actually
>>153807755There is every reason to think: cole young, luke raley, leo rivas, and some of the pitching staff will have a better year.
>>153807826A lot of people still live in the area. Just because no one comes from out of town does not mean there is enough. They seem to support the Golden Knights ok and the Raiders seem to draw in a bit who want to come in from California for the weekend. Summer though is tough reason for a lot to head to the desert to see a game. The Aviators do draw well from what I have read, but that is still averaging around 6800 per season from what I am seeing. I doubt a MLB team would get much more than that average wise beyond the first few seasons.
Outside of casinos and luxury hotels, what does Las Vegas have to offer?
>>153807894prostitution and drugs
>>153807883their pitching will remain solid, but that park is where hitting goes to die. I also look at the division and Houston will be good again, and that A's team has a lot of up and coming young players that they could also push.
>>153807808More of the market to yourself. The bay was split with the Giants.Also seating deals are not that big of an issue. Nobody want to sit in downshit seats like doyer stadiums top deck and see the players look like ants unless you are a broke cholo and just want to get the stadium giveaway for $20 pre WS wins
>>153807894THE BALL
>>153807903hooking isnt legal in vegas itself you need to drive 3 hours into the butt fuck desert to find a brothel and pay 400 an hour for mid pussy
>>153807894Sand and inhumanity
>>153807904Houston has a decent reload at best until they're going to be playoff caliber
>>153807927this is why SEA is superior. The flight is long, but worth it. Las Vegas is for kids. The real men do Thailand.
>>153807904Talkin' Baseball likes the M's, who are you to contradict their expertise?
>>153807969A lot are talking M's for the division. I see them more as a wild card and maybe winning a round in the playoffs but ultimately falling short. I just do not see them having enough hitting.
>>153807924The split with the Giants was still a larger media market than Vegas. Vegas is behind fucking Milwaukee for God's sake
my backup backup catcher :-D
>>153807969Foolish Bailey genny
>HBP on a guy named BiggersWhy do the Orioles hate Biggers so much?
>>153807948So what you’re telling us is that you enjoy the company of underage ladyboys?

>>153808347did they change them up because they were really shit from what I saw last season.

pca a bitch dawg
>>153809278I HATE YOU
Buehler pitchin 2day. I'm starting to think he's not making the team without another pitcher injury but he's looking effective as a BOR/spot/mopup type
>>153808112why is Giolito homeless? he was pretty good last year
starting to like pca just because you guys bitch about him so much
>>153809471His contact quality perceived him much worse than his actual results. Cpuld also be injury concerns or his camp has a set number and are unwilling to budge

poop crap ass

i hope josh naylor knows that if we lose this game tonight we potentially face the US, and that means cal might snap in the middle of the game and start beating the shit out of him for no reason

>>153810294Fem tho?
>>153810294Holy fucking kikery wtf:>We remind you that there is no Palestinian state, just as there is no Palestinian baseball team.
>>153810487>Palestine out of fucking NOWHERE

>>153810338Lol is this real. He looks like Groucho
>>153810487wth is their problem?
>>153810487and Palestine did have a national team, but the IDF bombings over the last few years killed multiple members
>>153810487BASED Israel telling palestine to kiss the rings
>>153810294>>153810487Literally mindraped
does Canada actually have a chance today?and dont give me some bullshit like "baseballs a high variance game"
>>153810487Very interesting that Google won't autotranslate this sentence with "palestino", btw

>>153810769game barely matters in the long term so they'll (hopefully) probably barely try to conserve energy for tomorrowor they'll hit like 30 then be gassed and get fucked by cuba, both are possible
>>153811011do they sell cheap radio headset/earpieces at games in the us?pic related costs like $2 at the game
>>153811081What are these?
>>153811081NTA but you can usually rent one at my ballpark for a nominal fee, you may even be able to ge5 one complimentary if you're HoH. Of course can bring in your own
>>153811011I never know why people hate on upper level concourse. Even after sitting field level for many years going up to the 300s is a fun change of pace and usually much more lively
>>153811103its a cheap radio earpiece that only gets one station (the game commentary)
>>153807594>Poat Recker or let bro queryWhat does this mean?
>>153811154For me it’s the slight delay of the crack of the bat when you’re way up there. Comfy.
Tenderize em
>>153811173Very. Also maybe I'm in the minority but I appreciate a HR more up there cuz you get an idea of how fast that thing is really moving
bAsEd
>>153810976why does palestine have a better jersey than the us. manfred's wife must have made the us logo or something, that's the only way to explain why we haven't replaced this shit
>>153811221he is having a good spring. if he progresses and Okamoto is ok they might be able to make up the numbers lost by Bo.
>>153811211Yea you really can appreciate the trajectory of a nice moonshot from up high too, see it battling wind etc. very kino.
>>153811011>>153811154>>153811081For me the main thing that annoyed me was that I had taken a group bus to get to the game and I would have gladly dropped an extra 20 or 30 bucks for better seats since it was a rare treat for me and not something I could casually do>>153811104I think most people would just listen to internet radio, even if you dont have unlimited data its not that expensive.
>>153810976>palestine>looks like the indians jersey>gets killed by settlersits like poetry
>>153810976ebbetts field is an online store that has some cool retro baseball stuff, i wanted to buy pic related for my dad who is from palestine (texas) but they stopped making it and never re-ran iti think the logo is a modern creation but the palestine pals were a real team back in the 30s or some shit
>>153811227Simplicity reigns in baseball and uniforms are an extension of that. Tho if I had another crack at the Palestine jersey I would do black piping on the player's right side and green piping on the left side. But yeah, US too busy and really needs to lose the folded bacon strips
>>153811289Super rad. I'm a big fan of Brown/Orange scheme even though the only two professional teams I can think of who used it is the Padres and Browns lol
>>153811319Do you like chocolate and orange juice?
>>153811319yeah it's pretty cool. that website has a lot of neat older shit, fun to snoop around#notsponsored
>>153810769why not? they clinch if they win so they should play hard.
>>153811319mmm... roobeer and oj.....
>>153807924Unless you're a near-sighted bitch or attending on a very, very hot day there's really no downside from watching up there
>>153811418I like to see the players up close iykwim haha
