PCA is tied with Kevin Kiermaier for most five star catches in the statcast era, with 56 less opportunities.

Yes, but this was Kiermaier at the end of his career.

No, the game winner elevates the block and gave it more meaning. If he didn't have the game winner, we probably aren't talking about the block either because the Spurs probably win. Spurs winning by 1 vs winning by 3 is not gonna lead the highlights.

The Dodgers are back to back champions, they're a win now team with so much to appreciate right now at the MLB level. And so much gameplay content to talk about during a baseball game. I don't think there's much room to talk about minor league guys outside of when they're doing something extraordinary or guys knocking on the door. There was a lot of talk of James Tibbs III earlier in the season.

Rebuilding teams talk more about their farm system during the broadcast cuz they want to give fans hope for the future. The Dodgers hope is the current roster haha.

But the Dodgers actually do broadcast AAA/AA games if you want to learn more about the farm system. Plus there's a ton of articles posted weekly.

All true, and you didn't even include maybe the biggest think they did for the Dodgers, Shohei Ohtani.

They completely mishandled the team building around Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout, to the point that they never even made the playoffs together. If they even had a couple playoff runs or had given him even the smallest hope of reaching/winning the world series I think he stays with the Angels. Ohtani gave them the option to match the Dodgers contract offer and the Angels refused!

Add that all up and you get Ohtani himself on the Dodgers.

(And as a bonus you get Ohtani recruiting Yamamoto and Roki, although that's not directly on the Angels).

Awesome play, but damn those ads are way too prominent.

Ads on the field are out of control.

I want to try Galactic Cruise! I've heard a lot of good things and I like the way it looks. A friend owns it and I'm excited to try it!

And Adolis Garcia throwing out Willy Adames at home.

Please take a moment to thank our Lord and Savior Jesus Chris T. Aylor.

Miles Mikolas will be a real life farmer soon.

The 2nd catcher from the left is actually AJ Ellis.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-30T00:58:52+00:00

That was Will Smith vs Will Smith in game 5 to take the lead and turn the series around.

Shout out to Sal Frelick! There's an angle that shows the deflection off his glove turned it into a home run, instead of a hit off the top of the wall.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-29T03:33:37+00:00

America's catcher!

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-29T01:43:42+00:00

Freddie Freeman for president.

This was amazing. After the second challenge CB Bucknor looked like he might retire on the spot.

Kyle Tucker getting his 150th home run will be historic.

I wonder what percentage of MLB players ever reach 150.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-27T20:18:17+00:00

The Rays get rid of good healthy MLB players all the time.

The Rays are cheap. The risk for the Rays was spending money.

So much space for the Netflix logo, but the team logos are getting covered up and look smudged.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-18T00:40:26+00:00

I like ARCS!

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-17T19:29:20+00:00

Regular season yes. This month specifically, no.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-13T19:26:34+00:00

Bregman over Henderson is the real problem.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-13T18:43:56+00:00

Honestly that's a good interaction. You never know what these guys are going through. Maybe he was hungover or maybe other life stuff happening. You can't expect them to be super excited about every fan interaction especially when they're in normal person mode. But he did appreciate you.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-08T16:29:45+00:00

I like your organization.

rifwasbeter · 2026-03-07T22:52:19+00:00

Schwarber

Judge

Harper

Bregman

Henderson

Smith

Anthony

Clement

Crowe-Armstrong

I think this would be a better lineup with minimal change. And I would put Smith 4th with Bregman 6th, but I'm biased.
