    Step 1: Assemble the lowest team salary in the MLB
    Step 2: ???
    Step 3: Profit.

    They're trading for players that they can trade for prospects before the deadline.

    Yeah I'm down with it.

    Plus Dipoto has to make a trade every three days or he'll die.

    It's one of the better services out there, unless you live near your favorite team because Blackout restrictions are still a thing.

    EDIT: I'm pretty sure when WWE Network first went online they were working with MLB Advanced Media, as is HBO Now, WatchESPN, and a few other services.

    I wonder if they'll still give it to T Mobile customers.

    I was thinking of picking up MLB's streaming service but the Cubs have spent the entire offseason pissing me off, so I'm not sure I want to pay to watch them

  • eelektrikeelektrik Southern CaliforniaRegistered User regular
    Meanwhile the Angels have done nothing but sign one year deals.

    Cody Allen - 8.5 million
    Jonathan Lucroy - 3.35 million
    Trevor Cahill - 9 million
    Matt Harvey - 11 million
    Justin Bour - 2.5 million

    Only MLB contract they've signed this off season longer than 1 year was for 3 years to new manager Brad Ausmus.

    Looking like another 3rd place year for the Angels.

  • AngryAngry The glory I had witnessed was just a sleight of handRegistered User regular
    you probably dont want to sign any of those guys for more than one year.

    Angels should be competitive this year, but Ausmus is a very bad manager so who knows.

    A lot of it will come down to if our pitchers stay healthy, but our rotation is pretty much worse than it was last year before injuries. No more Garret Richards(he's good when he's healthy anyway), Ohtani won't be pitching this year, etc. Instead we've got Cahill and Harvey.

    You just need to wait until someone builds a streaming service on the roof next door and buy it from them instead

    I'm currently angry enough with the Cubs' ownership that I'm wondering if I even want to watch baseball this year. It's not really been a secret that they're largely pro-Trump, but they've just...ramped up their bullshit this offseason. I know pretty much all major sports owners are terrible, garbage people, but...fuck, the Ricketts family seems like they're gunning for the top spot.

    And it's not, ultimately that important, if I don't watch a baseball game, but I've been a fan of this team essentially since I was old enough to understand what baseball was, and it's one of the few pieces of common ground I have with my family. I don't want to toss all of that away, but I also don't want to have, "todd rickets is using the money he made off of you buying this hat to help spread shit all over the place" in the back of my mind every time Javy Baez does something cool. It fucking sucks.

    Few things

    1. Sign up for my league up there!
    2. @Maximum are you planning on playing? Keepers are kicking in a few days. Need you there or need to find someone else.
    3. WHO WANTS IN THE KEEPER LEAGUE IF MAXIMUM LEAVES?

    If he shows up you'll be on standby for the next opening. If he doesn't, you'll take over his team.

    Just please be prepared to be active and work on your team. Also you'll want to have discord
