I love baseball just not meaningless seasons

nhl and nba are perhaps even more meaningless

baseball this year is a total farce but its at least being played without a 5 month break
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

It's good to see the new guy fitting right in!  :D

this is really kind of special how bad this is...like just based on the law of averages even the 1962 mets would hold one of these leads

at this point they might as well get something for jt.

With Klentak, it'll be just one more crappy reliever.

I'm glad I didn't watch tonight.

Rome

The fam was binging West Wing season 1 last night.  Glad I watched that with them instead of this.

MDS

the sad thing is this is not really an immediately fixable problem

whatever intriguing young arms they have in their system arent getting any better and will need months of seasoning in 2021. they already traded 2 of them away, in fact. so theyll have to go out and buy like alex colome or something, fart together some waiver claims and hope ramon rosso finds his release point

the phillies are the phillies, everything is normal at least

this is a joke right?

NHL and nba played their seasons and now have playoffs mlb made up a season and playoffs
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

MDS

you cant take a 5 month break then just play out fake playoffs in a bubble

mlb the entire season is under these weird rules and weird circumstances....at least its a consistently weird thing.

They played 90% of the regular season and the playoffs are the same. There were also no major changes to the way the games were played. Not sure how that's fake playoffs

On the flip side mlb made drastic changes to the game and is only playing 30% of their regular season

MDS

none of them are real but once you take a break it ruins it even more IMO

everyone knows what this season is for baseball...whereas stepford flyer fans will 100% count this as a cup win
