2026 MLB Season Thread

We’re on our 3rd string manager. I hope he gets himself tossed within the next 10 games. Might just have Trout be a player/manager.

No no no, don't need Trout going down the same road as the last player/manager. Just let that man play baseball.

Good win tonight by the Rockies.

They're starter threw a gem complete game shutout.
 
At times you can see why baseball is one of the least popular sports. There’s a lot of boneheaded plays.

Vegas doesn’t need a baseball team. Especially the sorry *** A’s.

Devers is probably the best overall hitter
Judge best player on the best team with crazy power numbers
Ohtani doing it on both sides is what seals it for me
 
Devers doing it for a better team vs a team not making the playoffs unfortunately will seal the vote.
 
Baseball journalist/media heads hold the sport back probably more than unwritten rule apologists. I really listened to Tim Kurkjian, who I actually like, refusing to budge on Mike Trout still being the face of baseball. Like wtf that man do to still deserve that title when his own damn teammate is doing **** none of us have seen and has come the closest to transcending the sport since Jeter? Judge killing it in NY also deserves that title more than Trout.

I know Mike has had an AMAZING decade and career to this point, individually, but it's crazy how so many in the media fight for him to hang on to the title of best player/face of baseball. If he doesn't win MVP this year I don't want to hear it anymore, foh with the "but if he wasn't injured" talk...

I agree with you. Best player =\= face of the sport

Tatis and Ohtani are the clear faces of baseball right now. Almost every national marketing campaign aimed at attracting eyeballs to the sport these last two years has featured one of them.

Trout might be the Joe DiMaggio of our generation, but he has never been very marketable.
