OT: MLB Thread 2025

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

As devastating as it is to lose a parent I can only imagine how hard it is to lose a child.

If you’re depending on MLB TV to get your Opening Day fix, you may need to explore a new option.

Am I missing something about Oswaldo Cabera? He just does not seem very good to me yet we are starting him at 3b. Does he have some sort of great untapped potential?

If Juan Soto hits .280 with 29 homeruns and 95 RBIs will people celebrate or feel that is not a big deal for that money?

I'm going to be annoying and say that two of those numbers don't really matter to me.
If his OBP is above .400 and he's putting up 6+ WAR then I'm happy with it.

LOL annoying? I think he is always above .400 OBP so you should be okay then.

He isn't a good fielder and for the amount of money he was paid, I would imagine offense at or just below the highest tier in the game is going to be the expectation.
He usually delivers on that. The numbers you suggested seem low but if he does that and walks 160 times, that becomes a different story.

Yeah, he's a career 160 OPS+ entering his prime. If he's healthy, he's the least of the Mets worries. They have to get that rotation healthy.
On the Yanks. Man, it feels like just another rudderless year where their sheer salary structure gets them to the playoffs but with no chance of succeeding there. Rinse, repeat. Phil??? Phil??? Phil Connors?!?! I thought that was us...
