lol the conservative billionaire owners in the sports league overrun with MAGA dudes are all out to get Trevor Bauer because he likes the same politician they do
It’s so funny how many people believe this to be true when Mariano Rivera is the only unanimous Hall of Famer in baseball history.

why do anything with your billions of dollars that might make people happy or improve society somewhat when you can use those billions of dollars to make even more billions
People often gush about how much sports team appreciate. The Cleveland Guardians were bought in early 2000 for $323 million and are now worth $1.48B, per @sportico.bsky.social. Good, right?
If the Dolans had put $323M into the S&P 500, and reinvested dividends, that would be $2.1 billion today.

On a related note: I am opposed to the people who think we should replace batting average with OBP in fantasy.
Like, it’s fine to do, but it doesn’t make the game inherently *better* if it better “reflects winning” or whatever. It’s just another puzzle to try to solve, which is what fantasy is.

Who are you talking to right now? Me? Am I supposed to go handle things? What the fuck do you actually do?
History is littered with democracies that lost their freedoms without seeming to notice while it was happening.
Let’s not become one of them.

Max Scherzer generated 36.9 WAR for the Nationals. He won two Cy Youngs, threw two no-hitters and a 20 strikeout game, and notched a 300 strikeout season. They won a World Series! They're not paying him to pitch elsewhere, they're paying out agreed upon deferrals.
Max Scherzer was paid over $58 million last year by the Nationals, Mets, and Rangers and the Nats still owe him $60 million.
He pitched in 9 games for the Rangers last season.

I remain surprised the Twins never seriously tried to get Pete Crow-Armstrong back when he was on the Mets, given that he's team owner Billy Heywood's younger half-brother.
