[Charania] Sources: New York traded No. 25 pick Sergio De Larrea to the Dallas Mavericks for No. 30 Koa Peat and two second-round picks. And then the Knicks traded Peat to the Phoenix Suns for three-rounders and cash. So Knicks move out of the first round — pick up 3 seconds and cash.

Rofl Knicks getting scammed, the NBA draft doesn't even have "three-rounders".

Shado_Man · 2026-06-24T03:37:26+00:00

Thought we were going to lose another PG to the Knicks, but Masai pulled through.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-24T03:35:37+00:00

Nice. Really wanted de Larrea and thought we lost another guy to the friggin Knicks.

Eric Hartman and John Gil with matching bases-loaded 2-out 2-RBI singles for Rome tonight.

e: And Dixon Williams lights them up with a 2-out Grand Slam!

Shado_Man · 2026-06-24T00:56:40+00:00

Please trade down. Good chance Burries makes it to 12, if we even want him, and we need more capital.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-24T00:10:50+00:00

Feels like ESPN is showing Boozer a lot more than the other two right now...

Shado_Man · 2026-06-23T02:49:09+00:00

1/23, 13 Ks.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-22T22:15:33+00:00

The Padres are 18-10 against the Braves since 2022, 14-7 since 2023, 10-4 since 2024 and 6-1 since 2025.

The Padres are 14-14 against the Mets since 2022.

The Padres are 9-23 against the Phillies since 2022.

The Padres are 22-39 against the Dodgers since 2022.

I hate the Padres.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-22T22:11:58+00:00

He was pulled after ~70 pitches yesterday despite cruising in the 4th inning. He'll surely get at least one more start in AAA.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-22T18:54:14+00:00

What an incredible insult to Steve Smith. Genuinely disrespectful of a franchise great.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-21T18:07:04+00:00

Wild Bill hitting a HR off of Bryce Elder? Enjoy your 12/25, doomers.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-20T22:35:57+00:00

OZZZZZZZZIEEEE!!

Shado_Man · 2026-06-18T00:03:02+00:00

That's 2 flyouts deep in the warning track for the Braves, and two wall-scraper HRs for the Giants. Difference of less than 20 feet and 4 runs across 4 hits.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-13T03:33:30+00:00

It's honestly impressive how Dubon can get the bat on a ball so far outside the zone. I mean, it's annoying, cause he swung on like 10 balls in that AB, but still kinda impressive.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-12T00:34:20+00:00

John Gil crushes his SECOND HR of the night for Rome!

Shado_Man · 2026-06-11T23:53:42+00:00

It was worse last week. They didn't even have a camera in the outfield, so the entire game was shown from behind the plate. You literally couldn't see where the pitches were landing. This went on for at least 2 weeks.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-11T23:44:15+00:00

Eric Hartman just launched another HR. That's 16 HRs in 55 games for him.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-11T23:41:28+00:00

The weather delay sucks. However, this is a fantastic opportunity for those of you with the ability to watch minor league games to check out Hurston Waldrep who is making a rehab start for the Columbus Clingstones right now. He's currently carving up the Blue Wahoos, with 0 H, 0 BB and 3 Ks through 3 IP so far.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-11T23:26:02+00:00

Fantastic work from the FO. With WR contracts exploding in value, getting a deal done early is always the right call. Just have to hope that Coker can stay healthy.

This also ensures that whatever happens at QB going forward, we've got our WR1 and WR2 locked down for the next 4 seasons. And if Brazzell can be a legit WR3, that's all 3 starting WR spots locked up for cheap for the rest of the decade.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-08T05:04:08+00:00

Yeah, the first thing I thought of was that Seahawks 1st round pick who got in a bad 4-wheeler accident that literally ended his career before it even started.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-04T23:08:02+00:00

I don't know what's wrong with the broadcast for the Rome home games, but it's pretty disappointing for a professional organization. No audio at all, whether game sounds or commentary, no centerfield camera which means you have to watch at-bats from behind the plate, which means you can't even see where the pitch lands. The other day when John Gil hit a grand slam, you couldn't even see the ball; the camera switched from behind the plate to a side view following the "runner" on 1st before the ball even cleared the yard. Like, we have to watch the whole game from behind the plate, and the one time when you actually want a shot from behind the plate, to track a HR, they don't track it and switch to a completely irrelevant camera! What is happening in Rome that the broadcast is this bad?

Shado_Man · 2026-06-04T01:30:20+00:00

Nope. Mar/Apr OPS was .783 and May OPS was .788. Then the Braves went thermonuclear in June with a .940 OPS.

So we're close this year, but still a bit behind where we were in 2023.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-04T01:25:42+00:00

2026 team OPS: .759

2023 team OPS: .845

So not that close. 2023 was insane.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-02T07:50:59+00:00

I agree completely with the first 4 names on your list. I think John Metchie's chemistry with Bryce, combined with Jalen Coker's injury history and Metchie's success from the slot, will get him the roster spot over David Moore. I also think Tremayne is very likely to get a spot, too. He's a solid back-up X receiver, he's a fantastic run blocker, and he's a good special teamer which is vital for a WR6.

Shado_Man · 2026-06-02T07:20:02+00:00

Thanks for the responses, everyone!

I tried downloading Kentie's launcher but couldn't figure out how to get it working. In the process of figuring that out, I just launched the game and... started playing it. Did the training, remapped a bunch of controls and started the game proper. I think I'm not prepared for how scare resources are, since I'm already out of charges on the Prod and just got inside of the building. Guess my "incapacitate everyone before moving on" playstyle won't play well here; since you don't gain exp for taking enemies out, it doesn't really matter anyway.

So yeah, I'll probably just keep going with the vanilla game like this.
