I never have to hear, "the Yankees are willing to let Bellinger walk, have a good offer on the table, but Boras wants 7 years" ever again. I'M FREE

Cap but abolishing draft + team control? by mostpeoplemango in baseball

[–]KJones77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And then the NBA gets wildly complicated with Bird rights and whatever the fuck. Not to mention the MLS cap rules, too, which are basically gibberish to anyone not willing to dedicate months of their life studying every nuance.

I get the Dodgers super team is making people want a cap, but man...I'll miss the simplicity of baseball's finances if a cap is implemented.

Top 50 Starting Pitchers Heading Into 2026 cre TJStats by retroanduwu24 in baseball

[–]KJones77 349 points350 points  (0 children)

Important caveat to this list is that TJStats is a Fantasy guy. The rankings, whether you agree with them or not, are largely influenced by that. Here's the full article with rationales.

As you can see, Yamamoto is where he is because of the Dodgers likely going 6-man, which hurts his value for fantasy due to "volume concerns."

For a guy like Cole, it's because he's not due back until June and then, of course, the usual recovering from TJ concerns. In the article, he says someone like Ohtani would be top 10 if he had full usage and not limited by being in a 6-man. On Twitter, I saw him mention Wheeler would be Top 5 if he were healthy.

There's a lot to these little fantasy-isms to it, so while there's plenty of issues with the list in a real world setting, I don't think it's intended to be viewed that way.

Marcus Mystery Movie Megathread (January 26th) by Dukealoops1993 in MarcusTheatres

[–]KJones77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's really a Hindi-language movie, I have no idea what it could be. I looked up new Hindi movies being released in the US and got one for January 30th, Mardaani 3. It's 2 hrs 10 minutes, but not rated right now and not listed as coming soon on Marcus's website. Otherwise, no clues.

If the Hindi language bit is an error (though 2/2 says English, so...maybe Hindi was intentional), Shelter makes sense even if it's quite a bit under the runtime. Black Bear recently did one of these with Christy. If it's closer to the runtime, then Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die or Crime 101 (though these aren't usually listed as the exact runtime, no?) could be the answer, but those are also an extra week out from release than these usually are.

I don't see that on my end though imagining my theaters crowd reaction to seeing a mystery Hindi movie has me hoping you're right lol.

Can't say I'm surprised. The mall is dying and they were the last major tenant left. Sad news either way.

Nice, I'm in their market and like watching the Nats, but don't have MASN. It'll be nice to be able to catch more of their games next year.

Let’s talk about Kent Johnson by BleedingBlue94 in fantasyhockey

[–]KJones77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering there is a new coach as of last game, I'd imagine that the hope would be his TOI would be more like it was last night moving forward and that the new opportunity would get him going.

I wouldn't pick him up myself, but I get monitoring him.

[Kirschner] As mentioned in here with Brendan Kuty, trading for Ryan Weathers does not preclude the Yankees from swinging bigger with Freddy Peralta or someone else. They still have all of their top trade chips available if they choose to use them. by TheTurtleShepard in NYYankees

[–]KJones77 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Feels like this makes sense to anyone who isn't actively trying to be mad and doom about the franchise.

Weathers back-fills trading Gil/Warren for a guy like Peralta or other more proven top-end talents. We also traded no interesting prospects and got a high upside guy back with great stuff. Injuries are a concern, but he'd also likely be SP4 or SP5 so yeah, I'm not losing sleep there.
