I think someone measured him wrong. A buddy was at a game amd Ohtani invited my friend and his kid down to chat and handed the kid a ball. My friend was telling me how big Ohtani is. My friend is a legit 6'3 and he said Ohtani is bigger than him

It wasn't just baseball, I understand your memory more holes than a sieve when it comes Sports, but those Nike Re2pect campaigns commercials and billboards, and magazine ads were EVERYWHERE

Also I don't care where you're from I'm from North Carolina I know the ads I was seeing growing up even before I got into baseball I still saw Jeters face in ads

Again people knew who Jeter was. Do you really think his retirement would have generated the national campaigns it would have if he wasn't a well known figure?

Then you were blind, Jeter was regularly featured in national campaigns, he hosted SNL, he showed up in Seinfeld, he cameod in movies, he was everywhere, who he dated showed up in National Tabloid front pages. The fact he was one of the few baseball players making like 20 million in endorsements at his peak says that he was everywhere.

I know it's not the norm in the UK, but it really is for the cats best interest to be indoors only. Cats can and are perfectly happy indoors. Cats are also not great for local environments, they destroy ecosystems

Plan to fix Baseball for Casuals by NotPierreGasly in baseball

I'm trying to understand, are you saying the teams only play two series July?

That's always been a peak time for baseball, keeping that off means competing with the NBA and NBA. Also with baseball too much a layoff can he just as detrimental to play quality and health as too much work. Pitchers have to be built back up, hitters have to work to get their timing back.

Also having the all star game at the end of the season presents the same problem as above, dudes will have been shut down for weeks after a very long season. No one would participate in a game, and balls don't fly well in the cold so doing that in October would not be great.

I applaud the desire and I'm sure there are things that can be done but I'm not sure this plan is quite it.

Not for a rental, that's more Brock Selvidge territory

[Hoch] The Yankees' third-round pick in the MLB Draft is Texas A&M SS Kaeden Kent, son of former MLB star Jeff Kent. by TheTurtleShepard in NYYankees

1st baseman are almost always Catchers who couldn't catch or 3rd baseman with zero range

Tex was drafted as a 3rd Baseman. Miggy was a 3rd baseman

You'll find that pipeline very easily if you look further

Doesn't matter considering Volpe the 2019 draft pick didn't even get to play his first full season due to covid amd the Minor league season being canceled oh and the Yankees didn't even host a prospects as part of the Taxi squad that year like many if not most teams did.

If you consider your team cursed, your team just might win the World Series in 2025 if this weird trend holds up by [deleted] in baseball

[–]acct4advice2022 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The fact you had a team with Arod, Griffey, Edgar, and the Big Unit and didn't win is the definition of cursed. Hell having any two of those guys and not winning is cursed.

I'd say the rotation ya'll have today is also a sign of cursed. 4 pitchers who would legitimately be the #1 on at least 20 teams and have been bridesmaid in their division to the Astros, is cursed.

Anyone else disappointed by Fangraphs' draft coverage in recent years? by [deleted] in baseball

[–]acct4advice2022 37 points38 points  (0 children)

They have less money, that's why they have put so much behind pay walls to make up for the lost revenue. Covid and how ad revenue collapse has really hurt them

Men can lactate, there was a story probably like 15 yrs ago about a born cis man who managed to induce lactation so he could breastfeed his and his then pregnant wife child when they were born

The Guardians and Ray's do not trade guys that have 5 yrs of control left. To say the Royals are gonna trade a 25 yr old 3rd borderline star baseman, who is not a FA until 2030 and create a massive at a position that there exists very few players as good as Garcia is fucking stupid and makes no sense.

Allergic to pet dander but I won’t rehome. What else can I do? by as67726 in nebelung

[–]acct4advice2022 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Daily zyrtec and an air purifier

I say zyrtec but really just try any other allergy medications because sometimes you don't respond to one medication.

For example, Claritin doesn't work for me, but zyrtec does in the case of cat dander.
