What does that have to do with what I said? MLB does a terrible job marketing it’s biggest stars and that’s been a complaint for years. My comment isn’t new in the slightest, so don’t pretend that it is.You think most people know who Nikola Jokic is?
You made it seem a negative towards MLB that the average person wouldn’t know who a particular MVP caliber player is, I responded with Nikola Jokic, a 2x back to back MVP.
Pretty sure the average person doesn’t know who that is either.
l literally just said that MLB does a poor job of marketing it’s stars. Again, that comment isn’t new as people have been saying that for years. You’re making more out of it than what it is meant to be.
The MLB doesnt market its players. It markets matchups and the league.
The TEAMS market their players to their fans and their market.
This is why “the man” on any mlb team is a big deal in that city. Julio Rodriguez is already getting griffey comparisons here and will be #1 athlete in seattle by September when the Seahawks suck. Any of the top players are marketed well in their markets. There is noeffort to make cross state border fans for baseball and really, other than the braves on TBS, and PANTHEON guys like bonds, mcgwire, jeter, there really has never been in our lifetimes.
Hes not having a better season than last season, nor is he having a better season than shoheiSoto comes in second place in MVP voting last year and is having a better season now, but who the fukk is Juan Soto
I realized that after i replied, but the point is that “who is juan soto”was wild to even say, and otani having a better year is irrelevant
ohtani contract should be insane dude is like 2 in 1
a starting pitcher who could give you 20 wins with low era and also hit 50 hrs

pretty sure if juan soto and nikola jokic were walking side by side majority of people would know who jokic is

Follow me to the truth
No they wouldn't.
Not saying that Soto stands out as being recognized amongst the general public but I know for sure Jokic don't
Other than being tall af in which most people would ask him if he plays basketball

I actually think the MLB does market its players fairly decently. They do a lot of SM post of their stars, do a lot of coverage on their network of the main guys, micd up players during games etc but they're still behind the team marketing wise (which is how its sposed to be).
I think majority of these guys get lost when determining league marketing and how much the talking heads on ESPN yap about them.
That baseball $ is long when you can turn down $400 million
