Are they intentionally designing the outfield glass to maximize glare aiming at the batter or

I spent the night in Paris last night as a stopover on my way home from my summer vacation, so I obviously took the opportunity to go party in the streets with everyone. I really wish baseball were more popular around the world, or hell, even just within the US

Man the Machado trade happened way too cleanly, and early, for me to believe that it was actually a done deal. I knew some bullshit like this would come up. It’s being tweeted about like it’s nothing major, but the thread has been pulled. Won’t be surprised to see it unravel

I’m not convinced that the FO has any intention of tendering Puig a contract this offseason, let alone extending him beyond 2019. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him go

lol why on earth would they decline to at least offer him arbitration? He’s still a productive player, and on a one year deal it’s a no brainer.

Is it? He’d get what, 12-15 mil in arbitration, at a position where they already have a lot of depth. Depending on who they go after in the offseason, I could see them not bringing him back

Why would he get $12-15M in arb? He's making $7.5M this year on his original contract and is not putting up superstar numbers. I can't imagine he'd get a major raise in arb.

B-Ref has him at $9.2 this year

I mean, the Dodgers had to change hands because of fiscal irresponsibility that had much less of an effect on the product than what's happening with the Mets.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Yo just FYI if you’re gonna use an accent to differentiate Enrique Hernandez’s nickname from a racial slur, the spelling Kíke is far more in line with how accents work in Spanish than Kiké (which would be pronounced more like Kick-AY)

Didn't know MLB hired writers for the Onion to work on some new scripts. Won't someone please thinking of the merchandising???

Also I read on a blog that the Dodgers are getting Dozier from Minnesota for the corpse of Logan Forsythe and a few lotto tickets, which if true, just :lol:

Pretty much

But I mean, yeah, there is some heavy offensive potential. Some major question marks though as well: Turner's wrist health, Bellinger just not being the same player, probable regression from Muncy/Kemp, the fuckin bullpen, etc.

Also the front office pulling starters out of the game after 4 innings
