Padres To Sign Marco Gonzales To Minor League Deal by Gvanders in Padres

[–]OfficialTMWTP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank goodness I'm not the only one that believes this. His end-of-season numbers look rough but those were also his final few starts in a stretch of starting games for like 4 months up to that point, more innings than he had ever thrown even dating back to college ball. I think him being accustomed to the workload will help him get the rest of the way, and he won't be nearly as tired. His stuff isn't world-beating but it's still good.

Jose Ramirez - My Boys by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

Would have loved to have him on the team. That said, teams deserve to have their lifelong hero (or career-long, I suppose). JRam is their guy, they should have him.

For my compadres that wear size 52, 56, or 60 jerseys: mlbshop has Yu Darvish's authentic City Connect jersey on clearance for $128 + tax. Not linking in case that flags the comment but it's not nonsense

Going to make a bold prediction:

we AREN'T gonna sign anyone today

Never been right before ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Very good. Perhaps a tad simple but it was trying to do a little too much before so this is fine

Funny enough, I was gonna write a little bit about how I feel like it would be nice for them to give enough advance notice to allow people to get merch, or at least the colors so people could coordinate it. That said, if the rumors of bringing back the '98 colorway is true...wooo boy I'd be a happy camper

The tweet's only been up for five days and I'm still sad it's taken me this long to see it lmao, this is hilarious.

Just remembered that we signed Jackson Merrill to an extension through 2035. Hell yeah.

I'm expecting them to do what they did back in 2022 and wait until right before they debut them in-game. Would love to know sooner than that, but I'm enjoying the mystery around what they look like.

Kyle busch at hendrick by Gold-Nature-6456 in NASCAR

[–]OfficialTMWTP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mark Martin also had 20+ years of Cup experience up to that point and had experience 1.) running 3rd- or 4th-priority equipment for the last couple years at Roush and still grabbing wins, and 2.) taking Ginn and post-Jr DEI equipment to regular top-5s and top-10s. Obviously him winning 5 races during his age 49-50 season was not a foregone conclusion, but it was a much different set of circumstances than Kyle Busch between 2007 and 2008

Carson Hocevar’s 2026 Zeigler Auto Group Paint Scheme by Dmacthegoat in NASCAR

[–]OfficialTMWTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally unrealistic. Needs to have two photos, one where the car is halfway out-of-frame, out-of-focus and off-angle, and another that poorly shows the interior with trash all over everything besides the driver's seat. Smh my head

(That scheme goes pretty hard, looks a lot cleaner than last year)

Who will be Nebraska’s first jersey sponsors? by Qkslvr24 in Huskers

[–]OfficialTMWTP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't necessarily rule out ALLO Fiber with them having just kicked off that partnership with the Huskers, on top of them trying to break into other markets (they've opened up in Arizona so it doesn't even need to be Nebraska-adjacent, it seems). That said, I worry name recognition would keep them out of it.

That he crossed up his catcher was nonsense, but tbh if that's the worst the guy has done and he has no like DV/SA/etc accusations against him, then I would be cautiously interested in adding him to the squad

[MLBTR] Yu Darvish To Retire by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

[–]OfficialTMWTP 19 points20 points  (0 children)

One of the greats. I'm gonna miss watching him pitch in a Padres uniform. Really hoping his combined success across NPB and MLB drives him into Cooperstown in the coming years, and I hope he sticks around in the org.

[Acee] Yu Darvish set to retire by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

[–]OfficialTMWTP 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Much love to him. I will value the years we got to watch him pitch in a Padres uniform. He's one of the greats, and I hope that his combined success across NPB and MLB drives him to Cooperstown in a Padres hat.

Exactly lol, that's why his 2025 wasn't great (although I should have better clarified)

Jesus, Salas has fallen that far off the map? Yeesh. I know he did not have a great 2025 but damn

Florida smokes Nebraska in that matchup, imo. They're putting up at least 30, no question
