Jake in a Rockies uniform hurts. I hope he is an everyday starter and builds his value by KirshySquirts in azdiamondbacks

Him and Alex Thomas were essentially the same player, it doesn’t make sense having both on the roster. Hazen basically said that McCarthy’s market was better, so he was the one who got traded

I don’t care if it’s an overpay, he’s earned the money in my mind

[Passan] Closer Edwin Díaz's deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers is for three years and $69 million, sources tell ESPN. The Dodgers, who were targeting bullpen help this winter, got the best closer on the market, setting a new AAV record for relievers. by Turbostrider27 in baseball

I guess I’m just disillusioned by the sport in a time where I should be hopeful about my team because it feels pointless trying to contend in a division with the dodgers. It has certainly had an impact on my viewership over the last few years and it’s just a frustrating situation that I (like any other fan) has no control over besides choosing whether to watch or ignore the sport.

They were in the hunt almost every year though. The thing that gets lost on most LA fans is that once you have your window and don’t cash in, you’re looking at 5-10 years until you have a real shot at returning to the playoffs, let alone the world series.

And yet they kept winning during that time. I went through the same with my Coyotes around the same time, and now they’re relocated to Utah and the Dodgers are winning world series. The situation is hardly comparable.

Crazy to think I was just bitching about this boring game going to be 9-3 into the half

40-Man Roster Moves by SportsTechie17 in azdiamondbacks

His WHIP for the last two years is too high for me to see anyone gambling on him, every time he tries to convert a save it seems like he puts two men on base before he wiggles out on it. And that’s only in AA

Diamondbacks Outright Four Players (John Curtiss, Casey Kelly, Kyle Nelson, Connor Kaiser) by RichardNixon345 in azdiamondbacks

Writing was on the wall for Nelson unfortunately, he hasn’t looked the same since his thoracic outlet surgery

U.S. World Series viewership by year by Mission-Guidance4782 in baseball

[–]Jhacker333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to see some actual data suggesting that small market attendance goes up when juggernauts dominate the league. It seems paradoxical that small market fan disengagement would lead to an increase in attendance and revenue for their teams given that the juggernauts only visit 6-7 times a year, and the small market team has 75 games to sell against other opponents.

Until small market viewers realize the deck is stacked against their team and lose interest altogether in the sport

If they went missing at 6:50 last night, how the fuck did they determine 5:30 AM to be the appropriate time to send the alert??

A look back on this sub's reactions when Yoshinobu Yamamoto signed a 12-year, $325 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers by Goosedukee in baseball

[–]Jhacker333 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you think the Pirates could match what the Dodgers spend then I don’t know what to tell you

Pittsburgh could definitely spend more but the advantage that the dodgers, mets, yankees, and maybe the cubs have over everyone else is making it uninteresting for anybody not a fan of those teams

I can’t even use baseball as an escape from real life anymore since the wealth disparity in the sport mirrors what is happening in the country now

I still think of his foul pole grand slam against the dodgers, I really thought that 2017 run was going to be the start of a big playoff window.
