Competitive balance is definitely a problem in MLB. You have teams with top 10 payrolls frequently winning the World Series while the other teams are simply just an extended farm system. I don’t think a cap is necessarily the answer, I think contract lengths are the bigger issue.
Yo, if you like sci-fi, Stephen King style horror, narratives critical of capitalism and consumerism, and shocking good character development, this is the book series you need to start. Audio book narration is 2nd to none, all around amazing series.
Why is there flat earth bullshit in my timeline. If you think every other celestial body is round but not the earth, please unfollow me. We have nothing for each other.
I hate to kill the fun, but on May 4th 1970 the GOP governor of Ohio James A Rhodes sent in the national Guard to a Vietnam War protest in Kent Ohio - protestors threw rocks, guardsmen opened fire killing 4 people. Do not forget that this happened.

These billionaire mf’s are building deluxe doomsday bunkers in New Zealand while they provoke international conflicts that could escalate to a nuclear exchange. They think that because they guessed right on stocks they deserve to create a new world in their image.
Scott Bessent says Americans, "in their heart of hearts, they feel good" about skyrocketing gas, grocery, and utility costs. Millions of Americans, struggling to pay bills, might disagree.
Great win by the Guardians last night.
Is anyone else disgusted by the fact that an adjudicated rapist and child predator is currently POTUS? On top of that he is also working hard to collapse the dollar and make things worse for working people.
If we nuke Iran - Russia will think it’s ok to Nuke Ukraine and China will think it’s ok to Nuke Taiwan. Nukes exist so no one will use them. Do not use nukes.
Some takeaways from the Seattle series:
SP’s walked a lot of guys, usually takes SPs a while to get right. Not worried
Our hitters didn’t walk much. Something to watch out for.
Trying to get rid of Arias before Memorial Day is pretty ridiculous, settle down
365 day NFL coverage is exhausting. Even more so when the team you root for is incompetent. It’s time to talk baseball, Cleveland. We have a good team year in and year out, we deserve better than the Browns and we have it with the Guardians. The Cavs too.
Guardians pitchers look good today - Oakie’s stuff was crazy good.
Angels pitcher Nate Snead had great stuff too.
Guardians are winning like they do in the MLB: solid pitching, and 1 big inning offensively.
