Why do the Mariners always have to wait until the end of the season to find their stride?
I really feel like they are going to mariners this hot streak away late in the season. 7 games vs the rangers at end should be entertaining.
gl to whoever gives him all the money
His velo was way down. Last time that happened I remember watching it live against the Trashtros. He had Tommy John surgery after that.
Nothing came close to watching that roided up weirdo domestic abuser launch rockets more than he hit foul balls.
The only thing more compelling were his homer fans that shrugged like Kevin Spacey in GGR when all the character issues came up: forerunners to Trumpists.
Ohtani burned out right before he played in a potentially meaningful game. YHTSI
paul dejong homered in his first game as a giant
only had 3 singles as a blue jay
also judge homered three times
ohtani torn UCL
heâs had TJ before, we canât have nice things
One of the most expensive injuries ever? I guess youâd have to frame it correctly as some have suffered career ending injuries but like this has to shave off at least 100 milly from any offer he would have gotten?
Shut him down. Fake MVP anyway
Like I donât know if he had any interest in New York (Mets ldo), but if I were Cohen I would have made him turn down an offer at least 100 million more than from his desired team. Guess something like this would make that harebrained idea even less likely but ascii shrug.
Ohtani doesnât seem like the type to care if he has a private jet or not anyway, heâll be fine
He can still swing a bat as a lefty with a right torn UCL as bryce harper did it last year. As long as he doesnât feel pain anyway then it wonât get worse swinging a bat. Heâll still get a huge deal even if he canât pitch for awhile or that part goes to shit.
Also had the game winning 2 run single in the tenth
Not just for Ohtani. Not trading him is going to go down as the worst front office decision of all time. We may be looking at 108 year WS drought levels here
Dejong is extremely streaky but plays above avg defense. As long as you donât need him to be the guy in the middle of a lineup he can help you win
Is not trading him a bad decision if they end up re-signing him?
I dont think they will resign him. Him staying in Anaheim is contingent on them challenging for the title, and they just arent right now

Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg plans to retire, according to three people familiar with the matter, ending a career that started with unprecedented hype, peaked with a World Series MVP award in 2019, and ultimately was derailed by injury. He last pitched in a game in June 2022.
Really shitty 24 hour window for pitcher news.
Do you think that they think they can re-sign him if they offer the most money?
Loved watching him pitch, great stuff when he came out of college.
