Houston, We Have Rule Changes! The Official 2023 MLB Season Thread

Freddie Freeman having twice as many steals as Mookie Betts has to be the most random stat of the season.

I'll always appreciate Freddie Freeman for what he did with the Braves but I'll never get over him signing with the Dodgers.

I think in 2024 the Seattle Mariners have a good chance to win the AL West, and possibly go a lot further than that.

George Kirby
Luis Castillo
Logan Gilbert
Bryce Miller
Bryan Woo

All of them above-average strikeouts. All of them limit walks.
They just need a bit better offense.

I think Teoscar Hernandez is a free agent. They probably won't miss him.
If only they could replace Eugenio Suarez.

Gotta be the most talented team to never win a World Series. That lineup was so stacked.

Seiya Suzuki has been a bit disappointing. I think everyone expected better since he's shown streaks where he has been really good. Not sure what's the issue with him.

Jeimer Candelario has been fantastic offensively, though I think he's a FA at the end of the year?

Someone here posted a tweet about Dansby Swanson trying to change the culture in the Cubs locker room.
There's work to be done. But the Cubs really aren't that far off from being a very good team. They probably need to sign a top level pitcher though.
