Huhhhhhh

the fear of a salary cap is palpable

I just can't take Roki seriously with those goofy monkey ears and always looking like he's about to cry. Yamamoto's a manlet but at least he fucks models and has a deserved ego.

When was the last WS winning starting rotation as good as this?

My salary cappies are winning

Classic Show-Gay shows up in the playoffs in a garbage time game, against a depleted pitching staff with 1/4 the payroll, 0 pressure game, 0 gravity to the situation feeling like a game in June

feel good, man

why did yamamoto jew himself so badly with such a cheap contract?

Reminder that the racist Brewers Karen was fired from her job, banned from her stadium, publicly humiliated and then got to watch her team get raped on live television by a Japanese man. Somebody check up on her. How could this happen in Trump's America?!

I mean I guess? It's not that much better actually.
>La Liga has had 3 different champions in the last 5 years

It's only been Man City and Liverpool winning for the last 8 seasons. La Liga actually has more parity than the Premier League in that sense.

I'm not sure what your original argument even is. I posted some potential landing spots Ohtani theoretically could've gone where his deal with the Dodgers also could've worked to the benefit of the team's marketing reach and you replied with a US heat map of Japanese-Americans and a horribly outdated "Revenue Sharing Market Score" from God knows where which is horribly outdated. Seriously, look at this shit: White Sox #5, Oakland #8, Washington #10? Texas #13? SD #24? This is at least 8 years old if not more. Is a score above 100 supposed to be a revenue share payor and under 100 a payee?

Will baseball ever get over it's Little Man Syndrome to Football?

lucky basterd

>>151434718
the point is there is no other team with both the japanese demographics and brand value to do what the dodgers are doing, it's a foreign money printer AND cheap free player funnel because japs all want to play for the dodgers now. If there's not a salary cap there will be at least some significant revenue sharing changes

>>151434704
>>151434713
He's getting paid pretty fairly. Cheapish AAV for his production but a 12-year pitcher contract is going to have at least a year or two of significant injuries

would have been a bad look for them to give him more than Cole. it gave them a convenient excuse not to go there. whether or not they regret it now is the question.

>>151434766
I was just looking up his stats earlier too. He's signed for 3 more years and then a mutual $20m option. He'll be 37 by then. It seems like just yesterday he was on the Marlins and I was wishing my team could trade for him.

Cubs fans are enjoying this more than the dodgers kek

Thee definition of garbage time 3-0, 0 pressure, worst pitchers in the playoffs, series already decided. Carries no magnitude whatsoever

Show-gay will be choking in the WS under a real pressure spot as he loses

>>151434734
The LA Japanese demographics are a marginal part of Ohtani's value. It's like 0.2% of LA's market size, and probably an even smaller fraction of his foreign viewership. Otherwise I agree with your post, Dodgers are the perfect marketing vehicle for Ohtani.

>>151434791
cope? you mean what you're literally doing right now?

Japan’s going nuts over Ohtani-san right now, but it doesn’t really seem like people in the US care that much anymore. Kinda sad how baseball’s fallen off there

>>151434791
He won game win in Philly and hit two homers in game 1 vs the reds. He then raped the Brewers on live television and you watched it until you turned off the stream in disgust and jerked off to tranny porn.

>>151434777
Marlins had Yelich, Ozuna and Stanton in the of, Realmuto behind the plate. what an absolutely disgusting ownership group.

The AL doesn’t even matter anymore desu the Dodgers already won. Still watching though obviously

>>151434817
This and countless examples of why there should be a salary floor. It's so sad to see young, exciting, teams get blown up every few years because of cheap ass owners.

>>151434743
only one so far. was supposed to go tomorrow but it's an acceptable tradeoff. Will probably go to at least 1 ws game. I can't make game 1 or 2 in LA. I'm thinking home game 3. I figure the mariners or blue jays will take at least one game, so the series either ends in Seattle or comes back to LA for game 6, or at I least get to watch game 5.

>>151434832
That's the game he pitched 6 innings in the most hostile stadium in the mlb. But, yeah, he also struck fear in the opposing manager so much so that he got intentionally walked to load the bases despite being 1/23 or whatever.

>>151434810
what does zutt mean

>>151434845

>>151434812
Won what game? The game where he sucked and gave up 3 runs? Dumb ass

How does a Brewer fan feel right now? On the one hand you had a good season and made it to the NLCS. On the other you were just totally not competitive and actually shit your pants and let yourself get BTFO without putting up a fight.

>>151434842
If the Mariners make it, I'm going to home game 1 & 2. When I bought my original ticket package I had WS home game 4 as well, but I'll get refunded at least now.

Who the fuck cares about this. Are they not making enough billions? They made less billions than the other guy. Maybe they need more advertising and gimmicky shit to make more money.

>>151434859
They sacrificed this year to force a salary cap for future years. Playoff baseball gets mogged by random college handegg games now. Unsustainable

>>151434859
This is quite the run of success, but severe playoff purgatory. Only 11 wins in 7 playoff chances. Brewers fans must have bad blue balls.

>>151434931
It’s not his slop. I should know because I was the one who posted the link and I saw that meme in the replies

>>151434832
Because the Philies made sure to keep throwing lefties or pitch around Ohtani when they couldn't. Even though he was surrounded by right handed batters both before and after him in the order. They hyper focused on shutting down Ohtani. In 20 PAs he faced a lefty in 16 out of them. Two of those were Duran, once in the first game where Duran was scared shitless to throw him anything in the zone, and secondly in the fourth game where they just intentionally walked him. Brewers tried hyper focusing on Ohtani as well but they just didn't have the same arsenal to actually pull it off.

Roberts is still an awful tactician, but even he can't fuck up when your starters are giving you 6IP+ shutouts every night. Kudos to Friedman for solving that

>>151434963
Let’s not pretend Friedman didn’t fuck up by signing Tanner Scott

>>151434937
he's fine. he seems to have a better feel with each passing season. good communicator with the players and good with crowd control. it's a high-pressure gig and he seems to be up to the task. I'm sure there are plenty of others that could do it as well, but I can't imagine a marked improvement over what he's done.

>>151434937
he's always been an analytics nerd but these past few years he's finally learned how to trust his players when they're dealing. Probably his biggest moment was changing his mind on the mound and letting Treinen pitch through the 8th in the World Series last year.

>>151434961
why go to the mat with casuals who are shitposting?

>>151434971
>signs the best lefty who had been dominant for the past 2+ seasons without major injury history
Good process, shit happens.

>>151434971
He's allowed to fuck up now and then. What he's been able to build has been more than anyone could expect.

>>151434974
Snell had to tell him to fuck off when Dave was wanting to pull him in Phillies regular season game

>>151434983
He would take a bullet for Ohtani's reputation.

shoutout to the NL champion Cubgers

>>151434936
Damn right I was. I got lightheaded when we won because I was jumping up and down and screaming so much. Playoff baseball is so amazing when you win. High-fiving and hugging strangers and it's so much joy. I also make sure to bring my earplugs to these games. It hits 110 decibels at these games.

>>151434997
yeah, you're going to see that from time to time taking pitchers out of games

The dodgers sure cause a lot of seethe

To all you Dodgers fans - can you unironically say that the 2020 WS is as legitimate as 2024? Still counts as a partial WS, IMO.

>>151435014
I don’t care. But I love the seethe it causes

So Ohtani is the objective undisputed greatest baseball player of all time after tonight right

>>151435023
yes. (ive been watching for 6 months)

>>151434997
but he left him in after snell protested and it ended up working out. wouldn't that indicate a good managerial decision?

>>151435014
Doesn't matter if it's "as legitimate as 2024". It will always count more than 2017's fraudulent championship that Manfred was too pussy to vacate

>>151435014
All the players say it was harder to win than '24. It technically counts but the whole lockdown period feels kind of like a weird dream now.

>>151435023
For all we know some random pitcher has potential to do what he did today, but we don't make them bat.

at least now i understand why it was so imperative for baseball to quickly and hilariously bury that whole "ohtani gambling on baseball and letting his friend take the fall for it" thing

>>151435023
Depends if he produces like that again in the World Series. I’m still not forgetting how he’s been slumping before this game and how he was carried in the postseason last year. But a pitcher hitting multiple homers has never been done before, and we were lucky to have witnessed it

>>151435014
it counts as 0.37 of a real one so I round down
I still loved every moment of it of course

>>151435020
It'll just never hold as much relevance as a full season WS. Part of the appeal for me in baseball is the attrition aspect, like a drawn out horse race. Teams surge to the front and fall back while others keep a steady pace throughout. I'm not even trying to shitpost here.

>>151435038
Pitcher hitting multiple homers in the postseason*
Fuck

>>151435030
Yes 2017 and 2018 are both cheater WS I agree with you.

>>151435042
it was awesome for what it was. otherwise, I never think of it. I barely thought of last season this year also.

>>151435007
it's even better when you clinch. I was at game 4 of nlds. it was kind of strange. everyone was hanging on every pitch, but the mood was sort of an anxious silence (relatively speaking) that in the blink of an eye turned to elation.
hope we get a best coast ws this year.

I certainly hope we can get it done on Sunday.

>>151435056
You gotta look at it from a player's perspective: as a young guy in AA/AAA, I would love to be on the Marlins, White Sox, Rockies (not as a pitcher haha) because you have ample opportunity to get called up and showcase yourself for a real MLB team. You might be getting a year or 2 experience/service time/salary while similar prospects are toiling away in the miner leagues

>>151435087
Cutoff my thought: the real issue is there's just a vast disparity in payrolls/market sizes. It becomes a borderline college football scenario where you have matchups that border on comedic. Now baseball is cool in the sense of how much randomness there is in small samples, but there's only so much you can account for.

>>151435082

No, I had decided well before that I wasn't going to attend any games that weekend. It just so happened that I had used the last of my account credit on the clinching game vs the rockies and I had already spent a large amount on playoff tickets. I had an amazing weekend of playing sports.

>>151435110
Dodger fans like to deflect the fact that there is an objective difference between spending 300 million as a team like the Rays vs spending 300 million as the Dodgers. The Rays having to commit that much basically means that guy has to be the face of the org for the next decade and he BETTER live up to it otherwise the team is going to be stuck and will never pull out of it. Meanwhile the Dodgers will make 20 times that guy's contract in a month due to their TV deals, sponsorships, and general market. Sure TECHNICALLY every team can spend as much as the dodgers on ONE player, but by all metrics out there, there is no way every team in the league could do what they are doing.

>>151435125
probably wants to be in the roster just cus if hes not, even if he gets a ring from the team, the mlb doesnt count people left out of the WS roster as champions. Doubt he actually pitches again this year

is this the crying about payroll part of the thread

Maybe your cheap ass owner should spend. Oh wait that doesnt mean shit cause look at the mets. Git gud fags.

Is there any world where the Dodgers don't turn the Mariner's asshole into a smoldering crater in under 5 games? My jints are dead and buried so from an outsiders perspective I've watched this team with an embarrassment of riches steamroll the best the NL had to offer without even trying. Can any AL bros offer me some solace? Is it at least going to be fun to watch the Dodgers kill this team or are they going to go under the wheels like a skunk running in front of a semi in four?

>>151435164
Casparius and Kershaw didn't even make an appearance in the CS. Call, Dean, Rushing were just taking up space also. not sure who else I might be missing. pretty crazy they didn't use more players.

>>151435184

>>151435184
We have beard hats. They will keep our team warm during October; thus keeping our bats hot. Mariners will walk and hit homeruns, because that's what they do.

I want to believe the Mariners will win, mainly because I imagine Manfred would rather have "team wins first ever world series in their first ever appearance" in the script over "team that finally made it to the world series for the first time in their entire history embarrassingly gets swept in the world series by the returning champs"

Meh a lot of sports have them and they ultimately don't help. The richest cities still mysteriously get the best players.

If the Dodgers win 4 to 6 world series in a row how would that make you feel? Demand changes? Would you stop watching the sport?

>>151435439
this
you just get teams doing near constant salary cap breaches
lot of teams pay their players indirectly, doing things like making sure the player gets a really nice sponsorship from one of the team's sponsors

Id be happy because I am a dodgers fan

>>151435448
I just want to watch Shohei play. I don't care about all that.

It would be good if they did, would increase general public interest and give it another shot in the arm for a few decades.

>>151435448
they'd be lucky to repeat
they maybe get one more in the 2020's

>>151435219
The Mariners play too small to be a threat to the Dodgers. Only the Jays have the bats to put pressure on their pitchers and reach the bullpen.

when a team dominates a league, the runner up spot becomes a prize of its own

That's it...that's the tweet.

The Brewers did more damage to baseball then the Dodgers have. What a fucking disgraceful performance. Should unironically be banned from the postseason for one year for such a showing.

>>151435184
>the best the NL had to offer without even trying.
The NL fucking sucked this year. Go back to August or most of the season outside the first few weeks and most Dodger fans were expecting a quick exit cause of how shaky parts of the roster were. This was a weak as hell NL that ended up with professional chokers Phillies and Brewers to face them after the Reds backed in cause the Mets gagged even harder then Harper with the bases loaded.

Im not saying that Seattle or Toronto will sweep the Dodgers or anything. But the NL was far weaker then the AL this year and i 100% believe if you swapped that weak ass Yankees team with the Dodgers in their respective leagues New York would be in the series right now.

Manfred should try double elim one year just so we can see if we end up with a NL vs NL WS.

Is there ANYTHING more retarded and cringe than goycattle who just say

>hurrrr so get an owner who pays more

The dodgers are literally owned by a multi generational Jewish financial company called GUGGENHEIM Partners Inc. that made its fortune exploiting American miners

Why is “your team” owned by anyone other than the fans? Kill yourself you fucking jew slave

>>151435576
Women with no ass are an automatic no

>>151435584
>owned by fans
how does that even work

>>151435584
99% of that is shitposting anon, everybody knows the fans have no say in who the owner is or else the shitters that run the White Sox, Pirates, Angels, Marlins and Twins would've been run out of town years ago.

>>151435604
The Angels owner is so baffling since that faggot basically let one of his players die.

The MLB should be renamed the MLO.

>>151435624
Maybe if the Brewers actually did anything they would get some highlights too.

>>151435612
I think hes weird cause he actually spends money, but it seems like it spends it all wrong.

>>151435632
I cant speak for Euro soccer as i dont know anything about it, but the NFL has a hard cap with a NFL players union thats probably the worst in sports who always let the owners roll over them. The Packers would be A's tier if the NFL had the same financial structure MLB does.

How the dodgers Jewish owners gained their wealth

The Guggenheim family, who built their fortune primarily through global mining operations in the early 20th century, faced significant accusations of exploiting miners and disregarding labor rights. This includes accusations of paying low wages, forcibly breaking strikes, and controlling workers' lives in company towns.
Exploitative labor practices
Low wages and poor conditions: At the height of their influence, the Guggenheims were known for paying their mining employees low, "starvation" wages. In 1916, when workers at the family's Kennecott Copper mine in Alaska went on strike to protest low pay and poor conditions, the company evicted the strikers from their bunkhouses into sub-freezing weather.
Strike-breaking and violence: The family had a reputation for being tough on labor and forcibly broke strikes. In 1912, four striking workers at a Guggenheim mine in Perth Amboy were shot after the company brought in strikebreakers.
Disregard for worker safety: In 1914, an explosion at a Guggenheim-owned coal mine in Eccles, West Virginia, killed between 183 and 186 workers. The disaster helped to fuel the labor movement in West Virginia and contributed to demands for improved safety regulations.
Control in company towns: For their nitrate mines in Chile, the Guggenheims implemented a "highly hierarchical and well-controlled labor force". They regulated workers' living conditions, market access, and even hygiene and recreation in company-controlled mining cities. They also violently suppressed worker resistance, as evidenced by a 1931 eviction.

>>151435691
A key part of the Guggenheim family's strategy for accumulating wealth was to exploit cheap labor and resources in developing countries to gain a competitive advantage. Their operations extended to many parts of the world, including:
Chile (copper and nitrates)
Belgian Congo (rubber and diamonds)
Bolivia (tin)
Alaska (copper and gold)
Mexico (silver)
Profiteering during wartime
The family's reputation was further tarnished by accusations of war profiteering during World War I. Public criticism grew as the Guggenheims' copper interests paid out enormous dividends. The family only agreed to lower copper prices when President Woodrow Wilson threatened to nationalize the metals industries.

>>151435691
>exploited the workforce
so basically, the same way every other rich person became wealthy

>>151435632
I dont know how those teams ownership works, care to enlighten?

>>151435709
publicly traded on the market

>>151435700

what does he do?

>>151434657 (OP)
Thank you Manfred. Another WS I will not watch.

>>151435700
Nah this was actual exploitation in industrial America
Evicting miners in miner towns into the Alaskan winter homeless

Kill yourself fucking retard jew slave

>>151435711
so not owned by the fans at all then?
anyone could invest

>>151435751
The packers are not publicly traded to avoid anyone from buying up the team

Euro clubs have certain rules that prevent majority ownership outside the fans

This is what Ohtani was going to do to the Phillies if they didn't throw game 4.

>>151435726

interesting, ill have to do a bit of reading into it

not sure if you know or not but the other logo is not just a ball and mitt but also an M & B which by virtue of its cleverness gives it a pass for me.

They don't have a chance, but the rotation is a more pressing need than the offense. Really all they're missing on offense is a RH 1B/DH.

I hate the Brewers not because "Le heckin' doyers ruining the baseballs!", but because their pathetic performance validated Dave Dombrowski's line about "We just faced the wrong team", meaning he now has the perfect excuse to run back the team that has gone 2-8 since Game 6 of the 2023 NLCS with absolutely pathetic offensive performances. There is now a perfectly fine reason to bring back Castellanos, Bohm, Stott, Marsh, and whatever other mediocre bum that would patrol left field. There's no reason to improve the bullpen, and there's certainly no reason to worry about the fact that Aaron Nola is cooked and Zack Wheeler won't pitch until August at the earliest. Nope, The Dodgers were just "them" and we can safely not spend any more of that "stupid money" to get John Middleton "his damn trophy back"

Cubs and Poodres should both be ashamed of letting Brewers get through. Actially pathetic.

>>151434937
Absolutely he's one of the better managers in baseball. He's learned from his playoff failures just as much as anybody else. For me, it was last year in WS Game 5 when he walked to the mound to get Trienen out, checked his heart rate, gave him the green light and left him in the game. A younger Roberts would have simply followed the binder and pulled him.

phillies were the only match for the dodgers, they had the pitching but no clutch hitters

>>151437796
They lost their ace and had their better ace right there to take his place. Starting pitching was not the problem, Sanchez, Suarez, and Luzardo did more than enough to put their teams in positions to win. But here's some triple slashes since Game 6 of the 2023 NLCS
>Bryce Harper: .206/.372/.382
>Kyle Schwarber: .162/.311/.459
>JT Realmuto: .222/.317/.444
>Trea Turner: .175/.250/.175
>Alec Bohm: .250/.400/.344
>Brandon Marsh: .152/.194/.346

Go get Pete and Skubal, ezpz.

>>151437850
he spent as much the brewers do on their starters on tanner scott and treinen

>>151437897
The obly awful triple slash line there for the money is Turner. Marsh and Stott ain't guys, they're just 2-3 win players who are competent during the regular season. A mid-700 OPS is fine for playoff caliber pitching. No real shame in losing to LA besides getting swept at home

>>151437950
It’s ok when the doyers do it because this genny is brown

>>151437950
Yeah man it's an unfair league. There are the teams that can go balls deep every year and the ones that can farm the regular season for 85-95 wins but never can push in all their chips lest they blow up their talent pipeline on a WS or bust approach. As a fan of a team that was the latter and is now the former, I will just stop watching if times get bad again. Pointless, frankly.

>>151437947
Not sure if the Siedler brothers are willing to spend the money

>>151437999
This is what John Seidler is hoping for btw

>>151438036
They definitely don't have the money for Alonso or the trade capital for Skubal. Cpntreras is the dream IMO; Hoskins would be acceptable on a cheap deal

let's keep dodgers related people

>>151434937
I'm not sure I saw the man do anything that could even be loosely described as 'managing' during the whole NLCS. Every time the camera showed him he was literally just kicked back lounging in the dugout as his SPs tore the Brewers apart from start to finish. He didn't have to worry about a thing and he knew it.

>>151438036
>>151438071
Get rid of that one inning wonder Miller, skubal and pete can play whole games.

Ohtani chokes in high-pressure situations. What you have to understand is that, yes, yesterday's game was to clinch the NLCS, but they were basically playing a bunch of beat dogs who had already given up on life.

Snell, Yamamoto and Teoscar felt like bigger contributors to this series than Ohtani. The Reds scoring more runs against the Doyers, and then being in the wild card at all, is just a good example of why the NL sucked this year.
