Hey retard. The Nationals won't miss Harper at all. They had the best offseason of any NL East team and Soto can fill in the face role easily. But you're a retard anyways so no more (You)s for you.

Really makes me think.

cubs fans are ruining Yea Forums!

Yes. Phillies, Mets, and Nationals all took steps to improve. Braves are relying on their young'ns, Markekis, and a literally whom pitching staff to repeat last year's success.
I'm tabbing the Nats to win it, but if they get the sort of injuries they had last year with Strasburg, Turner, and Eaton, they'll have trouble staying on top. but other than that - a deep outfield, talented youth, a rotation that looks dynamite on paper, an improved bullpen, and quality behind the plate for once. Dozier is a bounceback candidate, and Trea would be in the MVP discussion if he plays to his fullest potential

NL Central is interesting too - Brewers, Cards, and Cubs are all contenders; and now the Reds are taking shit seriously for once

I think its not fair to lump Hahn in with GarPax and Kenny. He took over the team in 2014, baseball takes a while to rebuild. You can tell he was legitimately upset the Sox didnt land Machado, and I truly believe if given the OK from Jerry he would have given Manny the 300

Nice pasta but it's all invalidated now that they have Robbie Cano dontcha know?

He still seems like a puppet to KW though hence the lumping. Also many Sox fans still haven't forgiven Hahn for the Shields trade and doubt they ever will.

How long until Baltimore becomes relevant again?

If I had to pick a winner now I'd say the Nationals, but I think we will be able to have a better idea by June. Maybe not the winner, but you just know one of those 4 teams is gonna trip out of the gate and not be able to overcome it. All of those teams are so damn flawed. Yes, the Mets and Nationals rotations look great, but when is the last time that collection of 10-15 guys have been healthy for a season.

I can't make out what Bryce says here, it looks like he says "let's fucking go" at some point

Step on third?

How are those prospects you got for Manny looking?

Nats and Cards for NLC. Dodgers win NLW unopposed. Braves and a surprise team in the Pirates for WCs

g-g-reat they will all be 1st ballot HOF

They're due then.

Nats for NLE** whoops

The Mets are DUE for a healthy rotation, nobodies training staff can be that bad

How was the NL Championship series, when is the banner going up?

>arcade league

The DH will NEVER EVER infect the superior NL

Because we still have to see what the NL is and they play AL teams during the season. This is pretty pathetic though.

The Phillies, Mets, Nationals, and Braves all had good offseasons. The Braves really didn't need to be as aggressive because they have the best farm system and the best depth already. It has nothing to do with them winning the division last year.
Meanwhile in the central, I would say only the Reds have had a decent offseason. The Cubs had their hands tied by ownership because of stupid free agent signings. The Cardinals traded for Goldschmidt (good) but are relying on over-the-hill Andrew Miller as their one bullpen move, which is really dumb. Their bullpen is still weak. The Brewers didn't address their starting rotation and will continue to rely on meme managing (I am skeptical how sustainable this is) but they have good pitching depth in general I guess with Burnes, Woodruff, and those guys. The Pirates are shit-tier all around. The Reds definitely put themselves a little closer to contention but their pitching could still be a dumpster fire. A lot of ifs like Sonny Gray, Tanner Roark, and Cody Reed. But there is upside if those guys pitch well.

>Who is Shohei Ohtani?
It appears the brainlet is you.

Capping this one

Bend over ninny boy, next year we're gonna make you grow up

The Braves better hope some of those young arms pan out, that pitching staff is trash

>angles over A's
Other than that 100% accurate

When will the Astros suck again? ffs they're still an NL Central team to me. They don't belong there.

>leaf still obsessed with LE BAT TOSS MAN

Blue Jays only if they call up Vlad Jr and starts mashing like scouts predict

isn't he injured and won't pitch?

When they stop cheating

Things that could happen:

>Blue Jays could finish below the Orioles
>Royals could finish above the Twins
>Rangers could finish in third place

The Angels are in a really bad spot. It's just that no one cares about them. I think they could be legitimately awful this season, maybe even last place. Trout better not sign that extension.

Joe DiMaggio died of HIV. Discuss.

he was never good outside of coors

It's still possibly a better pitching staff than the Phillies. Right now it's too hard to predict who will have the best bullpen in the division. I really wonder if the Braves and Phillies struggle in the first half because of mediocre rotations. The Nationals and Mets are better in that regard.

Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig's disease. Discuss.

Phillies rotation isn't mediocre, the fuck you talking about?

Phillies have the third best rotation in their division, behind the Nats and the Mets.

Hampie h8rs can kick rocks

The only reason we are a second-class team is because our ownership group believes we are a second-class team. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy, and it has become the culture of the White Sox. I see it in the players, the coaches, the ownership, and the fans. We don’t expect to win, and we’re fine with just seeing some familiar faces on the diamond day in and day out. We accept it because they’re likable people (which they are) and we’ve grown accustomed to a losing culture and a loser mentality.

There has to be a fundamental change in the way everybody thinks of this baseball team. Because let’s face it: we are the biggest joke in baseball. And it’s not only because of Manny Machado.

For all of you who say “Fuck the Cubs,” I could not care less about the Cubs. The Cubs are a much better baseball team and a much better organization than we are.

Stop accepting failure because you’ve grown comfortable with it. Catch up to modern baseball. Get educated and take a look at player WAR, OPS, and WHIP instead of the way a player smiles and shows up every day. Demand this fundamental change in White Sox culture instead of sitting back and accepting the fact that we are losers.

To me that’s true fanhood.

Imagine being some sad Harper Head and you wake up and get dabbed on this hard by based Bauer.

lets annex Venezuela and make it reality

This why they need to avoid Harper and build the best starting rotation and bullpen via FA/Trade. Grab Kimbrel/Bauer/Keuchel this year. Then you can definitely grab one of Cole or Sale next year, or even both! Then you have Verlander who you can get on a short term deal. The likes of DeGrom and Syndergaard will be more obtainable in a trade too. With all these options they can find their guys, they can build something great here.

Personally, I don't know what to expect pitcher-wise, but all I am hearing from people talking about the Padres, not actively trying to shit up /mlb/, are that the club needs arms, but wants to see at least a couple of it's pitching prospects before being willing to sign a FA pitcher, or trade for one.

True, but that user didn't even know the Padres were a team back then, so pay him not mind.

I wouldn't be able to speculate from the standpoint of a ball player of his caliber, but as a man who took the San Diego discount multiple times because he cared more about his hometown than taking his talent to a big market team, I think he'd be as ecstatic as the majority of San Diego has been since the signing was announced. I think Tony might have bitten his tongue, but would have hated watching the team tank the last few seasons, and would love that (as Prellar said himself this week) the Padres are entering a new phase of taking the talent they have spent the last few years acquiring, and trying to make a winning product out of it, with the Machado signing most significantly representing that tactical shift.

Oh you can die now asshole

orcs = /ourfriends/

Does anyone else agree, part of the anger is no Machado, but part is that the Sox have now confirmed that they're never going to be in the market for quality free agents?

By not giving the extra guaranteed 50 million and not giving opt outs, they're essentially saying they are never going to be in the market for quality free agents.

So now they need the whole farm system to pan out, and if theyre lucky, they'll have 1 great year like the Royals, then back to the basement

royals had 2 great years

Royals are having a great year THIS year asshole!

>A´s already giving up 2 runs at first inning

it will be an long season for them...

Same difference. The bitter truth is the Dads still suck and will continue to suck for the foreseeable future. 300 mill or not. This ain't the NBA where one player can change a team.

>this is the first time i am listening baseball on radio, its so comfy
That’s a good way to describe it.

1. You have no basis for knowing if the Machado contract is their general strategy for pursuing free agents or if it was specifically tailored to Machado taking into consideration his comments and performance during the world series last year
2. Even if it were their general strategy, you have no reason to assume they wouldn't learn from it and change. They offered 250 million, almost 200 million more than they've ever given to a player. If they weren't capable of change, that in and of itself would be impossible according to your mind.

You're upset because you like being upset, and actively look for reasons to stay upset.

>This ain't the NBA where one player can change a team.
Completely agree, which is why I hope Machado can contribute more to the team than just his individual play. It's also the same reason my projections for this season have remained humble. () Do I want to believe the rest of the team can get better because of him? Yeah, but you'd have to put a gun to my head to get me to declare that IT IS ABSOLUTELY GOING TO HAPPEN before they show me a collective on field improvement.
The reasons I liked the idea of tanking was because the Padres are particularly skilled at losing, so that being a tactical means to an end was particularly viable for them. The funny thing is, they weren't even skilled enough at losing to have the worst record any of the years they were, which is just SOO Padres.
All of this is just to say, do I want them to get better? Would I love for them to succeed? 100%, but I've been burned enough times to hedge my expectations, which is why if/when they continue to suck as you expect I won't be shocked.

Yeah. I have to say that SD has historically been the most JUST and forgettable team in the league for decades. I don't have any ill will towards them at all. That said, if they do succeed, I'll be happy for them. Fuck the Giants and the Dodgers. And if they continue to be shitty to mediocre, so what, at least you still get to live in one of the most beautiful areas weather wise in the continental US.

Thanks, user.

This. It's nothing but falseflaggers left. Even BAJP isn't around anymore.

Wider than you muhammad

Can this even be considered baseball anymore?

why does everyone want to hit FA at the age of 31 now?

they dont. are you talking about nola and severino? they just took guaranteed money and sacrificed one year of FA.

Lebron James Shields

The 5 year opt out for machado was a really big reason that Machado took the deal over the white sox.

>bricking your curveballs

the biggest reason was that he was given more guaranteed money

I guess it also depends on the likelihood of the incentives, but a player of his caliber could have likely made a decent chunk extra unless the incentive was simply winning MVP 3 times or something crazy like that. But then why the opt out at 5 years?

What about the incentives though?

Based white sox FO proving that they are NOT metaphorical cocksuckers!

I believe the incentives were 550 AB in 27 and 28, which is far from a guarantee, especially at the age he will be. Baseball teams manipulate those kind of things too, with the sox reputation of being stingy I'm sure Machado's agent advised him against it. The player option is just a sweetener for the player, and they are totally fine with it. Think of it this way, if they get 5 years of Machado playing at the level where he is good enough to opt out of a 5 year 150 million deal at age 31, than that means he has been playing tremendously for them.

also, if he is playing good enough to opt out in 5 years, depending on what happens in those 5 years, the Padres would have the inside track to sign or extend him. The same thing A-Rod did with the Yankees.

Well yeah of course, but isn't this a two way implication? If he is indeed playing very well for them in those first 5 years, then it is quite likely that he would accomplish those incentives and end up getting the larger sum of money in those years, which is why if they offered an opt out as well that I think he might have taken it. The only thing is, as you've said, that some teams manipulate the 550 AB incentives (although I thought some were reward based as well) which is just a scummy practice in general.

No the incentives were in the final two years of the White Sox potential deal, years 7 and 8. Taking the Padres deal gave him the most money without any risk, think about how much of a gamble that would be. Older players are more likely to get hurt, and as I've said there is nothing stopping the White Sox from limiting him to like 549 AB

Blow up their whole scummy FO.

Oh I didn't know that the incentives were that late, makes complete sense then. With the padres deal he could not only bet on himself but it works better on both ends where if he doesn't play well he still gets more than he would with the white sox. Had it been earlier years, it might have made sense.

I've been saying over the past couple days, I don't think its fair to blame their newest GM Rick Hahn, I think he was given a clear number ($300m) that he could not guarantee a player. But yes, their owner is a known scumbag and things will not get better until he sells the team. A fun fact about Jerry, he was instrumental in the 94 work stoppage/mlb strike, and during that season the White Sox we're leading their division and set to make the playoffs. Could you fucking imagine?
Yeah, Manny absolutely made the right decision imo

I certainly hope so. He rocked at 2nd while he could play last season, but got injured and put on the IR into the end of the season. I'd prefer he play with Machado as much as possible instead of Kinsler.
>What makes you think they'll keep Tatis Jr. down another year?
I mean technically he hasn't had much time in AAA. Just AA more than anything, so I could see that being a reason, but I'd love for them to call him up this year for sure.
