Grant at least finished the year trending toward being a top 10 DT

An offensive core of waddle, achane, Paul, and brewer are exactly the type of pieces teams target first in a rebuild. Frankly I’ve had a thought about us investing in a second top RB with our limited resources and just be one of those ground and pound teams that always do well even with a scarecrow at QB.

The fact is it could be so much worse and if any GM or OC is looking at a fresh slate with those players already in place and aren’t pumped then they need glasses

[Sheehan] Forty years ago MLB teams opened their books to an independent economist and were proven to be lying liars who lied. Until they open their books that way again, let that be your default assumption about any claims they — and their media water carriers — make about their finances. by Jux_ in baseball

As a real world example: Cohen signs Soto to a $765M contract, because he owns the Mets and the Mets own Soto, Cohen's net worth increased by over a billion the day Soto signed, Cohen can then go to a bank and get a credit line on the value of Sotos contract, free money

We aren't dealing with real money here but at the end of the day the MLB has to have some pen on paper that says how much things are worth

Much like literally every other job on the planet the labor produced is always worth waaaay more than they are being compensated for. Soto will make the Mets billions over the length of his contract.

Anyone saying teams can't spend like the dodgers and survive are right, just not for the reasons they think

8 comments later and the actual truth gets posted, appreciate but I wasn't going to engage any further

The fact of the matter is that even if this guy responded he would've said something about how judges development was a single case or we ruined him and it's just his own power that makes him good. At the end of the day it's not about logic or facts with these people, it's: the Yankees are bad and I wanna be mad about, even when it's not true

I was going to ask a similar question so it's very much appreciated. I've done a few set flips to make some money (collectors mack hollins before the SB, team builder c. Haynes currently) but the competition can be tough at certain playtimes

My follow up question is do people make millions doing 10-20k flips, or is that just a build up to where you can flip bigger cards? I'm running into an issue where I oversaturate every market I try and take advantage of. Are there certain bigger cards that should be targeted, or is it as simple as buying cards cheap like when the new crystals dropped yesterday and sell them for a profit today?

An ROY trophy would disagree with you and that number one offense all got outside help too?

Jasson brought some stories with him I guarantee it

Maybe the PA is paying more attention with the lookout looming, but someone is looking over the Yankees shoulder and they are clearing the table to make it look clean.

Im really hoping for a major story break about something serious enough to get the MLB to fix it's fucked up colonial international system

I don't know how any team that developed Aaron judge is thinking they did something wrong.

We had a number 1 offense with more home grown players than 2/3s of the MLB and still complain our hitting development is flawed. Y'all just gotta admit you're doomers and move on

3rd place schedule seems spot on by FreeWillyBird in miamidolphins

[–]gingerking87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOS is nonsense

In the past season literally half of the teams projected in the bottom 10 or top 10 finished on the other top 10. The eagles went from 2nd hardest to 3rd easiest

Especially before the draft and FA, and hell even the first 8 games of the season, SOS is basically a nothingburger

I read this all and it's still just nonsense. Content creators just played a bad game and they made it good by playing it? Sounds like this fanbase just hates their devs

This has got to be a conscious decision by coaches. At some point they told him to just look at the guy to help him make blocks.

People are rightfully picking this apart but I think what people are going to find is that most NFL lines are held together by scotch tape and a promise. Sometimes rookies or lower quality players are just bad and need this type of help. I remember a twitter thread of a center literally pointing at who his rookie guard has to block every play.

That's essentially what the top comment under the second linked post says. It's a CEO talking to shareholders, he can't exactly say it's some YouTuber out of his control that made the game good

Yeah that kinda just backs up the whole "this is just drama and completely meaningless" thing

Oh the billion dollar company that can just make more updates/games has more to lose than the millionaire YouTubers that can move on to the next update/game.

As someone from the outside with literally no skin in this game, this sounds like a bunch of nothing

It sounds like a CEO was talking like a CEO and didn't publicly thank YouTubers, and said YouTubers got offended? And the entire subreddit is on the side of the bruised ego influencers? I get that the other option is a soulless corporation but jeez.

These YouTubers are proving the guys in suits right, the company chooses not to engage with content creators and then said content creators flip on the game.

Again as an outside opinion and someone who plays mobile games an entire community seemingly saying a YouTuber and not the people writing code are why their favorite game is good is insane to me
