that would be the greatest thing. they booed him as soon as he stepped to the plate last year. ohtani only stole 59 bases last year because freddie made fun of him by mentioned how he got more in 2023 in an interview before 2024 season started

yeah youre so right

>>151417176
Jays logo is prob the worst on there.
Yankees, Sox, Tigers, Cubs and Dodgers are Iconic.
Reds and Phillies are close to that.
Mariners are just a good PNW color scheme as the Dads are a good San Diego scheme and Brewers are a solid neo-throwback
Guardians suck but it's a nice enough C
Jays are not quite old enough to be retro but not different enough to be new, asymmetrical and have that color clash that makes it off-putting.
Without the Maple Leaf it would be better, but still the worst outside the Guardians.

Dodgers actually need to drop one so they don't get cold waiting for the AL to play real baseball

mariners may never see the world series

>>151417246
Seattle and Toronto don't have a single starting pitcher good enough to get into this rotation. The idea that either AL team has a chance is laughable.

What went wrong with the mariners?

>>151417246
Does Ohtani start Game 4?

Ohtani if he weighed 400 lbs.

I haven't loved a starting pitching duo this much since Kershaw and Greinke.

>>151417256
I can appreciate an old logo becoming a historical logo etc. But letter logos themselves just seem so lazy imo. To each their own.

>>151417283
They love being lovable losers. Players are giving the fans what they want

>>151417277
getting cocky considering how many embariceing stretches the doyers have had this year. anything could happen, it's baseball.

poodrepacos kek

>>151417246

Meanwhile, the fifth pitcher in the rotation is also their leadoff hitter, and their other THREE starters are coming out of the bullpen in the playoffs.

>>151417295
Whit Merrifield tried to block his trade to the Jays because he'd have to be vaxxed to enter Canada, but they got rid of the mandate just before the deadline. He said he didn't like Canada, but now he does media and PR for the team.

It’s Kershaws last year. It’s clear the scriptwriters are giving it to them

>>151417345
it's obviously to try and capture the jap audience

>>151417345
Kershaw getting called out of the bullpen to pitch the final outs winning the World Series at home in Dodger Stadium is the most scripted shit of all time, but it will be kino.

>>151417327

Kersh deserves it

do you think that error may have pushed him towards depression

>>151417176
Brewers have a great logo, SD should have incorporated their monk guy like that.
The other teams have histories going back a over a century so not worth changing. There's too many Cs though.

>>151417668
Cubgers won that game!

everything's coming up cubgers

Dodgers will probably win another title and who knows how many more but it will be funny when they get fucked by the new salary cap in a few years.

>>151417702
>why doyers are winning
- half of the all-stars starting pitchers are "recovered" (read: well rested) because they sat out a third of the regular season, and there are less stats on them because of this reason
- the overworked and exhausted bullpen that kept blowing games in regular season is now stacked with former starters. Also, no Tanner Scott
- no Conforto slowing down the offense
- accumulated postseason experience from veteran players like Mookie, Muncy, etc.

>why brewers are losing
- lack of confidence in themselves. They're "just happy to be here" in the postseason, which is nice but not a winning mentality
- less stats and probably worse reads on Snell and Glasnow's pitching
- way too much chasing at the plate. If they try to work the count and be patient they get on base more often. They are literally helping the doyers' pitching staff

There will be no salary cap! Dodgers winning is good for business!

>>151417753
>he thinks the salary cap is happening
Yeah and the Yankees are firing Aaron Boone

>>151417726
I feel like in October, the vibe is less that you're throwing at one team and more that you're throwing and that makes you everyone else's target. HBPs regularly end in suspensions when they get blatant enough too, and that includes manager suspensions, which teams might be less incentivized to face just to injure a player you won't be seeing again next week no matter what

>>151417753
ChatGPT says a salary cap is not gonna happen. The last time one was proposed the players went on strike and the world series was canceled.

Nobody watched the Rangers vs Dbacks WS. The small market experiment is a failure. The Dodgers, Yankees, Mets, and Astros going to the postseason brings in the money

I have tickets for Saturday. I won't be going, will I, dodgerbros?

>>151417753
Doubt they get as fucked as many people think they will. They won't just bend over, they will adapt.
And is not like the management will leave, they will still have the talent and many others that will want to join the dodgers to win, just like how talent today is sacrificing their pay to win.

NHL has a salary cap butt all the players just play were the taxes are the lowest.

Wow, it sure does look like the Brewers are no match for the Dodgers. If Manfred could have hand selected a team for the Dodgers to play in the playoffs if he wanted the series to be as uncompetitive as possible he couldn’t have picked a better team. And wouldn’t you know it, it’s looking to be a sweep and all of a sudden the baseball world is in favor of a salary cap. I’m just happy that it happened organically. It’s not like MLB would rig the Cubs vs Brewers series to make sure the Dodgers would get the easiest opponent, that would never happen.

>>151417711
Seriously, why did they do this? It's petty and unnecessary. Funny in the moment but anyone could see it would be used against them when they lose

>the only thing that terrifies a doyerpaco more than ICE
>Salary Cap discussions

>>151417870
I don't know which subreddit you pulled this from but surely nobody in their right mind thinks the Cubs could have been more competitive against the Dodgers

>>151417873
“This was their World Series” is obviously a cope but beating the cubs was literally their World Series

>>151417860
The Brewers and their fans are demoralized. Ohtani will deliver the killing blow by pitching a CGSO and homering twice.

>>151417870

>>151417843
Is not just dodging taxes, the players will still have to pay them, they will technically receive less money because of how inflation works and due to how money works, having money today to invest is infinitely better than having money later.
Is just that the players that defer the money don't care about this as much as other players, they just want more chances for their team to win, they are not being forced nor is a exclusive thing that only the dodgers can do, if other teams and players agreed to it they can do it too but again, money is a very powerful driving force for many players so i can't blame them and teams may not have development plans that make these players feel safe enough to think the idea is good.

And they are getting "inflation taxed" by not receiving the money today, and again, having money today is infinitely more useful as you can invest it, you can do it in the future too but its much less valuable.
>and you're describing glory hunting, it's not a virtue
How is wanting to join a team that wins a bad thing? How is aiming for bigger achievements a bad thing?
They are receiving less pay short term than other top talents because they want to win and again, other can do it too.
Is like complaining a fighting game player is playing a top tier character that is difficult to play and ask for it to be nerfed just because you are not willing to put the effort. the dodgers will defer 100m a year in a decade, that's basically the profit of many teams, why don't they do it? the anwser is not simple but many point to same thing, they just dont want to win enough.

i mean aren't they insanely rich

>>151418054
I just told you that many teams have profit of more than 100m/year, they can do it, hell they don't even require to defer as much as the dodgers, having 2 or 3 players do it will help them a ton, most of the deferred money is from Ohtani anyway, is not like every team will find their own Ohtani with 68m/year so realistically other teams will defer a lot less even with a lot of players deferring.
>who are quite possibly planning to go bankrupt)
They won't go bankrupt with the amount of revenue they have, they will just scale things differently and found new talent, or do you expect to them to NOT adapt? That's stupid, they will aim to extend the glory days, is not like everything will be lost in a decade, they will still have the management experience and the management itself and some core players that will still be left while the gaps are being filled, they can still keep a good team, Dodgers have like 12 divisions title of 13, they are doing something good and it didn't start just recently.

that image you keep spamming is REVENUE which is pre tax. it is not something anyone can do
why the fuck are you even a dodgers fan anyway? Your sport is soccer

the reason you get doyerpacos writing paragraphs of text to defend the team is because they know the gig is going to end. none of the other 30 teams is on board and it's fucking over all the players who aren't with the dodgers

>it is not something anyone can do
Any team can do it, unless you tell me other teams have no profit at all, which is just false.
the point is that 68% of the deferred money comes from Ohtani big contract and the other comes from MANY players defering their contract, Ohtani contract is a very big exception.
Other teams even with small profit can still do it IF they want to win, they do not require many players to do it but doing it at all can help the team gain better talent.
Other teams just don't do it, even if they have the money, either because they are not willing to put the effort to form a plan around it, can't find players that want to defer the money or simply don't care/want to win enough.

why are the cubs the only flyover fanbase with a presence on /mlb/?

>reddit's main baseball sub has a fag flag in its logo and also an emblem for jackie robinson's number
>this is presumably on every thread

they're so deep into self-parody its remarkable

it's also because all the japs moved to california so they want to play there, similar to how all of latin america except brazil got raped into existence by spain so they get soccer players for cheap for leliga

If they added a salary cap, would existing contracts be grandfathered in? The dodgers/mets could end up with cap issues without even signing anyone new if they added it. I doubt it'll happen.

>>151417899
For me it’s stumbleupon

>>151418198
>I doubt it'll happen.
stage 1

>>151418177
I've seen families and chubber couples walk by with them. for me it's a standard dodger dog, garlic fries in a helmet, and a coke zero in a souvenir cup.

There should be 32 to 34 teams and the Mets and the angels should move to states where they don’t have a professional baseball team

>>151418120
Instituting a salary cap would be eternally conceding defeat to the Dodgers though. It would literally be an admission that the league can't compete with >us without communism

>>151418163
There have been a lot of other teams using deferrals in the past, just no one cared about it until Ohtani deferred such a large amount. Now people are talking about it a lot more.

>>151418212

Objectively true statement from Harper here

salary caps only benefits rich owners and states with no income tax, they don't bring parity

wait til some of the dodgers players get injured or washed up and then they are burden with huge contracts they can't get off their books, people already panicking

>>151418238
Because baseball is everyday. Not just Sunday.

>>151418180
>if you do it with less you'll just lose AND fuck over your future
teams are constantly making decisions that fuck their futures constantly so what's the difference, just look at the padres trades and mets buying juan soto, so whats a few millions left of profit because of a deferred contract? That's worth the risk if you want to win the talent, just look at all those teams that could have made it big with an 1 or 2 extra talent when it mattered.
The dodgers are the only one spending billions because 1.- Ohtani contract 2.- they are not retards, they know what they are doing and is clearly working, the other teams have been too slow to implement strategies and is not like is the first time it happened, they didn't invent and they are not the only rich team in MLB either.

>banning the shift ruins baseball!
*makes game better*
>pitch clock ruins baseball!
*makes game better*
>salary cap would ruin baseball!

>dodgers players themselves are actually doing the "DEY NOT LIKE US, WE A *FAMILY* WHO GETS IT DONE" shit unironically
I was joking when I kept mocking that

>>151418267
I'm not saying it would make baseball worse necessarily but it is an acknowledgement that the doyers own you

>>151418163
None of the guys owning any of these teams want to run them for a loss, at least not for 10+ years, you're underestimating how much money the Dodgers bring in along with how many teams right how have owners that were used to the old RSN model for money making and thats all going away.

>>151418264
because the standard for now deferred contract strategies is a fucking DECADE
yes teams have always made bets which if they lose set them back a year or two, but now you have to go all-in brinksmanship that you wont be possibly good until 2036+ if something fails

teams with real owners dont want to take that risk, but the dodgers don't have a real owner, just a bunch of jews in nyc

>>151418279
why arent the real owners voting them out then?

>>151418267
The pitch clock is actually gay as fuck and I hate you.

Switch Astros with Padres, send Rockies to AL. Dodgers been too coddled by eating weak ass team who don't spend. A SD vs LA World series would absolutely feed Manfraud pockets.

>>151418256
Looks like nah, the website just shills an app called “Mix” and you can’t login or use the site without registering an email and “invite code”

>>151418283
Not our rivals

the dodgers are trying to turn the MLB into bundesliga where if you don't play for the dodgers there's no point in playing at all and they're burning billions to do it and praying that the other owners and players won't be able to stop them (or that they can bribe the MLB with enough japbucks to let them do it)

>>151418265
what causes this?

>>151418281
What's the point now? You can't invalidate the player contracts, it doesn't matter who owns the team

There's no crying in baseball

>>151418297
Don't cry when the salary cap comes then

>>151418292
So like the Yankees of the past

>>151418293
>>151417992

>>151418292
the only problem with that comparison is that there are five other teams that CAN spend just as much as the dodgers but don't, like no one had a problem when it was just the yankees who spent a fortune

it's more like the epl

>>151418298
Stop crying fag

>>151418299
beat me to it. Kids these days don't remember how it was with the Braves and Yankees in the 90s. It is the same shit. At least the Dodgers don't come off as an evil empire of assholes that no one likes.

>monstercansip.jpg

>>151418279
>because the standard for now deferred contract strategies is a fucking DECADE
What does the time frame matter, they will never defer as much money because they will not have their own Ohtani, it'll be the equivalent of spending a few million more each year except they get more talent now.
>but now you have to go all-in brinksmanship that you wont be possibly good until 2036+ if something fails
As opposed of not risking anything and not winning shit? the alternative isn't exactly as good unless the team wants profit rather than winning.
>teams with real owners dont want to take that risk,
exactly my point, they don't want to win enough despite having the means, doesn't matter that the dodgers don't have a real owner, what matter is that all of them want to win, if anything having less owners means there's less conflict on making risky decisions

>>151418299
>>151418321

>>151418308
The Braves WERE trying to give Freddie what he wanted and literally did offer him a contract he was going to accept, his agent just wanted him to go to LA and lied. And anyone who thinks Ohtani was going to stay on the Angels is just retarded, like this guy and you are.

you need to remember that you're a medium sized fish in a small pond
even the BEST possible ratings you could ever get, dodgers vs yankees, lost to woman's college basketball

>>151418325
I disagree. In 1994 following the strike it was even worse.

You're fighting over scraps down there with basketball right now and college sports are currently bigger and growing faster than you.

You need to fix parity or you won't make it.

Don't forget lil bro - baseball is just a sidequest right now.

I dont care how much money the Dodgers spend or really hate them, i just want to see different teams in the world series more often.

>>151418375
>muh parity
When was the last time a team repeated?
Fucking retard.

if i was a baseball maximalist i'd be cursing SCOTUS for fixing college football

>>151418308
The retarded thing is that people like this unironically think that if teams matched the Dodgers offer they would actually make the same amount of money back that the Dodgers do. No, the Rays would not get the insane viewership, deals and sponsorship boosts this guy thinks they would if they were paying Snell and Glasnow 30 million each a year. Snell knew that, the Rays knew that, that's why they knew they had literally no shot of competing with other teams for a contract with him and tried to see what they could get for him. The Dodgers payroll is higher than some teams' ENTIRE revenue, even if they invested 90% of their revenue into payroll to hit half the payroll the Dodgers have, they're likely going to be operating on a loss purely to keep the one good player they developed, leaving nothing behind to build around them, wasting everybody's time since nobody is going to watch a shit team just because they have that one good pitcher every 5 days.

>>151418370
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjghuOMPGqs
Wish i was alive for this, looks fun as fug

baseball's got a lot of fresh eyes on it right now with the changes they've made, people aren't going to keep watching if it's loldoyerswin and MLB knows that. Dodgers really should at least throw a few games to keep the heat off them.

>>151418406
Answer my question faggot. When was the last time a team repeated.

dodgers don't have an owner so they don't have any pride to lose if the bet goes sour and they're dogshit for 10 years, they can simply go bankrupt and move on

>>151418376
I'm also on favor of salary cap, but since i have faith on the dodgers i don't think it will affect them, they just will adapt or create another loophole.
Best case scenario, teams will adapt to win but realistically, most will put the same amount of effort, some just won't be able to buy raw talent anymore.

>>151418411
We ain’t even gay tho!

>more coping
There's no crying in baseball

>>151418411
not that anon, but past results don't matter if the current revival in popularity of baseball comes at the same time repeats start happening again. MLB is finally getting a resurgence that is allowing it to become relevant and popular again, and they're going to ruin it if they allow it to come at the same time another dynasty is formed.

>>151418404

>>151418428
Sounds like you are just pissed it's the Dodgers. Kys.

>>151418325
Baseball was bigger because of the dynasties, that's what people want to watch. When you have dominant players winning multiple championships, it increases the value of said championship, because the next time someone else wins it they will be put in the list of champioms along with dominant dynasty teams, players want to compete for that. A championship kinda loses value when it's won by a different flyover team every year. No one cared about the 2023 WS.

>>151418425
???

>>151418448
I am a 100 year old man. Been going downhill since the Dodgers left Brooklyn. Absolute shame.

>>151418308
I love the implication here that the Red Sox don't spend, like they aren't one of the highest payrolls. Higher than the Yankees, a team many agree is one of the unfair large market teams that gets most free agents.

>>151418228
thanks bro

The league should shrink to 12 teams like NPB and have 12 Cohen's outspending each other

I wish my Mariners would stop choking. I would appreciate it immensely, actually.

>>151418428
>They're going to ruin it if they allow it to come at the same time another dynasty is formed.
This dynasty may be special though, it will have guaranteed viewers in the form of a whole country called japan. the more japanese stars mlb has, the more constant these viewers will become, they won't care if their athletes keep winning for a decade.
Japan passion for baseball shouldn't be underestimated, they are willing to watch a league outside of their own and by a big percentage too.

>>151418428
This
>>151418448
LOL no baseball was bigger only because Football (America's Sport) hadn't yet risen to its Throne. And then baseball fell flat on it's face with it's steroid scandal too.

And you're just mad Texas won.

>>151418482
America isn't going to let the sport be dominated by one team just to get some foreigners to watch it at the expense of growing the domestic American market.

>>151418482
So just let them only root for Ohtani and whoever wants to be in his little anime instead of chads that went their own way like the ronin Kikuchi, or Shota, or Yoshi?

Dodger pitchers aren't "throwing gems" the brewers just can't hit

The problem is your product is just worse right now. You had two post season games and they draw something like 5-6M Americans, football had one game on Amazon prime and it draws 12-17.7M and it was far better in terms of quality than both games today (which had maybe two moments where the game scored actually changed, otherwise it was just a boring Slurper).

You need more parity. Right now your sport looks like it can be bought. Like the hooker of American sports.

>>151418547
Dog fucking leaf

why are you guys blaming the Dodgers for "ruining baseball" and not the cheap owner fucks that run teams like White Sox and Rockies to the ground? Dodgers are setting an example for other team owners.

You need to fix your sport if you want to cut it in this country.

>>151418555

If the Jays win a world series for the first time in forever thanks to Scherzer, he really should be hailed as the title drought killer. He did it for the Nats, he did it for the Rangers, and he'll do it for the Jays. He should look for another team to do that for next year too, make that his gimmick to end his career, see if magic can strike for a fourth time.

>>151418560
There's always a few shit teams each year in any sport, stop the whataboutism

>>151418555
Baseball is naturally boring, football isn't. Also the whole pay to win thing is inaccurate, baseball is too random to be able to buy championships, ask the Mets.

Football became gay as fuck when you couldn't annihilate the QB anymore. Pussy sport.

>>151418555
i don't think that has parity has anything to do with nfl ratings, look at ncaaf, is there parity there? why is the ratings going up?

>>151418573
>Mets had a historic collapse like fucking retards so ignore money
that's not how this works. They're just legendary at being incompetent

>>151418560
The Sox are in the process of changing owners anyway, so their problems will probably start to be resolved within the next few years. As for the Rockies, I think even with the best GM, you couldn't really turn them into something. No high profile free agent pitcher will want to risk a potential hall of fame career having to play at Coors, and that's why they keep losing, even when they had guys who used to have .375 season batting averages with like 30-40 home runs playing half the positions.

>>151418575
It’s literally ref flag ball it’s pathetic that anyone even watches or takes it seriously

>>151418586
Ncaaf is great because now everyone can pay players instead of the previous system where the SEC teams did it under the table

And yes there is parity now, it's just the variation in teams is very wide

>>151418524

you are telling me the same teams don't dominate the shit teams there? haven't checked ncaaf in a while so let's see

>>151418586
Football is popular because it’s an excuse to day drink. No other sport dedicates a full day every weekend like football does. Plus you have the tailgates which is another excuse to get out and socialize and drink. Couple that with the short regular season which makes every game a big event. That’s the secret to success. Baseball hockey basketball soccer none of these sports draw like football in the US because they aren’t good enough excuses to drink at 11am

>>151418624
since 2022? it's not like they got crushed by some underpaid unknown underdogs, it's the same teams that are always dominating their divisions, ohio state, michigan

The problem is playing multiple games so the team with more money and thus more resources will win over the underdog far more often than in other sports. Big Sports are best of one

why did they name a team the marners when "marner" is slang for shit

I don't even know why I'm arguing for football, it's another gay sport I don't care about.

>>151418726
Cope, you said "you can drink anywhere in the stadium", now you're admitting I was right and you can't drink in the stands
You're a nanny state and the only one in Europe

>>151418718
This. most people think anyone who speaks Spanish is mexican

>the only one in Europe
lol

Imagine trying to keep track of all 5 countries in Latin America. And for what purpose?

>>151418732
Really, it is my fault as I was supposed to say "anywhere else". It really doesn't matter. Nobody at all cares about this here. Different crowd culture etc.

>>151418743
Nearly pulled him up on this as well, but there's not much point.

Sorry which other European countries are about to have their courts ban 4chan

Future Dodger Manager, Max Muncy.

>>151418774
he will be shohei's lunchtime coach in the 2040's

Glad we got that out of the way so we can talk about some good ol' baseball.

>PLS DODGERS PLS DONT ELIMINATE THE BREWERS!

Haven't been keeping too much of an eye on Doyers/Sewers series. It's looking like the WS will be the Doyers and Blow Gays. How's that going to shake out, do you think?

I like the idea of Dave Roberts trying to have Kershaw close out the NLCS or WS only for him to immediately blow the game and allow the other team to come back and take the series lol

this guy beat me to it

>>151418832
blue jays probably have less gas in the tank at this point

Been gassy lately desu

Seems like they can hit a slump, since my Mariners rolled them twice before running out of steam themselves. Once the Mariners drop, I've got no dog in the fight. I think you're right though. Even when the Dodgers haven't been firing on all cylinders they've still done enough to get them over the line.

Thing is though, the bats are getting hot for the Gays. Maybe it'll be different against the Doyers, or maybe it won't. Time will tell.

>>151418883
jays scored a lot of runs this playoffs so far - a lot of big scoring games
