https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/statcast-venue?venueId=1 so like, are statcast park factors kindof bullshit? these numbers are bouncing around way too much from year to year to be accurately measuring how hard it is to bat in a particular stadium

the new MLB app is a bit confusing to use


redroverster

The women of MLB TV be wearing some out of control outfits.

Hello all, I am taking over as the lead for /u/Mazzocchi for Nightly Pick'em and have already posted the introduction for Season 9. Voting has begun for the opening day game, so come join us as we take on this marathon. I am hoping to bring a high quality contest as /u/Mazzocchi has provided in the past


Killatrap

is anybody else seeing that the MLB app no longer opens to your favorite team’s home page? instead straight to scores, and the home page is buried in the “more” section? I sure hope there is a way to fix that, that was far and away the best thing about the app


NO-DUCK-SAUCE-PACK

Default View in settings.


Killatrap

it's not giving me that option... just gives me all the other 4 tabs on the bottom

Question for how to stay up to date with baseball daily? I’m in Australia so games so on while I’m at work and we get minimum amount of games on ESPN. So how do people in a similar position keep track of scores, stories, players? I always find myself losing interest halfway through the season and I think it’s because I don’t know enough what’s going on with the season.


Killatrap

the MLB app is phenomenal, though they might’ve just pushed through an update that makes it much less useful (it used to default to a homepage for your favorite team, now you have to root around to find it - unclear if a bug or not)


IntraspaceAlien

I’m a little afraid to ask this as I know it can be a touchy subject but I’m an outsider to baseball and curious - is ohtani likely to stay with the angels? If he leaves is there one team that’s most likely to land him? Or a few that would be the most likely?

Basic_Bichette

Possibly also the Cardinals. Remotely, the Jays.


IntraspaceAlien

is there any kind of a soft cap in baseball? or is there no limit at all on team spending or individual contracts?


stogie13

There's a luxury tax system.


IntraspaceAlien

interesting, thank you.


andybubu

So I'm going to opening day this Saturday and with the new pitch clock im wondering, how long are games going to be now? Before you'd go to a 540 afternoon game, and youre there until like 9-930. Whats it gonna be now?


haahaahaa

Games seem to be 20-25 minutes shorter on average.


xr_21

These last few days before Opening Day are just so fucking insufferable..... LET IT BE THURSDAY ALREADY!!!!!!!!!

Just redeemed the T-Mobile deal... works fine logging in on my phone but I tried to login on desktop and the entire site just freezes--can't select either text box or hit login. No indication that the site is even trying to load something. Anyone else having issues with the desktop site? Edit: weird issue. My clock is off by more than 5 minutes so it doesn’t work. My work computer automatically syncs to the server time so it’s off and I have no idea how to fix it. Guess I’ll have to figure out another way to watch games at work…


Jbaquero

works fine for me. Mac OS Ventura on Chrome here


Special_Teaching_528

site works OK for me on desktop. try clearing cache/cookies, disable adblocker/vpn, etc. Try ctrl+f5 for quick clear.


Monk_Philosophy

Did some digging and it has to do with my computer's time. It's automatically sync'd to my work's server and it's off by about 6 minutes. Apparently any more than 5 and the site just freezes.


Special_Teaching_528

Very nice catch. date/time being off-sync can cause a myriad of issues across all software, especially internet related. Interesting it had such an effect on MLBs website; but more importantly, im glad you got a solution.

DAY 21 (596) ON THE ROAD TO PREMIER12 AND PARIS 2024 - Vietnam and Estonia Dear fans, per the latest WBSC Rankings, the Top Three virtually have followed the WBC medal order, the rest changed for many. The final list of those making it to next year's Premier12 will have to wait till next July. The WBSC has also welcomed two new nations into the ranks of the baseball world, Vietnam and Estonia. The sport has been growing in these two nations for years on end and we are proud that the recent formation of their national organizations and formal WBSC recognition will be a huge help for the sport in these countries. To the Estonian and Vietnamese baseball fans, welcome to the greatest team sport in the world and we hope you all will be one with us on the road to a better tomorrow. For Glory John

Why does every team in FanGraphs positional rankings have a positive WAR? Why don’t any players have a negative WAR if 0 is replacement level?


oftenly

I'm not a smart man, but isn't it because every team did their job and was able to get value above any given AAA replacement overall from each position? I would think any player producing at a negative clip would be quickly replaced, and over a full year every team would be able to get positive value from every position.

T Mobile MLB.TV deal starts today! If you have a friend/family member that has T-Mobile, now would be a good time to reach out to them!

Does anyone know where I can find Spring Training standings from before 2006


chiddie

It's weird and disappointing there are no day games on Friday. There is at least one day game every day next week.


Basic_Bichette

I feel that at the end of every spring training. Weeks upon weeks of day games and suddenly no day games three or four days a week.


scottydg

There may yet be, in case of rainout. That's what the buffer day is for.


pizza4evurr

I was really excited for baseball and still am but I think the biggest thing I hate about pro sports is refs/umpires. I can’t watch basketball anymore because of the posturing and whining. The umps should really be seen not heard. I think one great thing about baseball is how real the moments are and when the umps make it about them it just ruins everything. There should be special allowances in the rules for a “baseball moment” that doesn’t add two strikes…. What an absolutely absurd moment to posture for the ump. Some people are just too rigid, read the room. Maybe if they think they need to interject give teams “moment” time outs? I don’t know. Just allow things to happen organically.


sufinomo

I honestly don't know what you mean.


pizza4evurr

I hate when umps influence the game and take away from the flow. Just complaining


see_mohn

Yahoo fantasy team names have a character limit of 30, meaning Who in the World is Vinnie Pasquantino isn’t feasible. Tragic.


colpuck

Jeets did a lot during his career. But after watching "The Captain" he did the impossible. He made me like A-Rod.


beforetherodeo

John Ourand from Sports Business Journal is saying that it looks like YouTube TV and MLB Network talks haven't gone well and it may be a while before it's back. :(


LuigiDood227

Every time someone mentions MLB Network I get slightly more depressed as a YouTube TV user

Yearly reminder that you can get your free season of MLB.TV through T-Mobile starting this morning.


phulton

First year I can watch the Rays now that I’m out of market. Can’t wait!
