The Official 2024 MLB Season Thread

[Da_Eggman]

The Yankees.
But I'm not a great fan. Over the years I've gotten more critical of them and I don't get as much joy. They're still my team but they're not fun.

And let me go off here a bit...

When I was growing up, you only saw your team play. For the most part.

You had weekend games on basic TV and This Week In Baseball but you were limited to your local channel.

Then ESPN showed more games. Teams started making their own channels (YES, NESN, etc...) and you could follow any other teams you wanted if you paid a subscription. Then the internet and MLB.tv made it so you could follow any team.

Add in the popularity of fantasy baseball and Draftkings and FanDuel and you now have a financial interest in players and teams BESIDES your hometown team that you've rooted for all your life.

So I say that to say...it's harder to just be a fan of one team these days. And more than ever you become a fan of a lot of players.

So yeah, Go Yankees.

But shyt, I like the Pirates. I like the Royals. I like watching Elly de la Cruz run for a triple. I like watching Mason Miller destroy batters in the 9th inning.

I can't contain my enjoyment to just Aaron Judge and Juan

When you are a Marlins fan You have no choice but to try to enjoy watching other teams

The Arizona Diamondbacks have a 16-4 record in their last 20 games​

The Yankees in no shape or form should be losing 12-2 to the woat baseball team. You have to play that game like it’s game seven of the World Series.

Ohtani should be the favorite at the moment. He's the best hitter in the National League and the rock of a Dodgers lineup that's had Mookie miss a lot of games. Dude's on pace for a 40/40 season.
