I've said it before and I'll say it again, people are busy during the week. Their weekend games will get sold out ahead of time because people want to get to games but can't during the week. You have to realize too that you're comparing Cleveland to the some of the largest cities in America

Who the fuck are you? I've been an Astros season ticket holder for 15 years. Longer than you've been alive, kid. Too bad my season tickets are worth about 6 jar of pickles because the Astros fucking blow it every year. I know your type. You're a Houstonian who just oh so loves baseball season, right? You go to the game, probably with your bf, snap some pictures, take some selfies, eat a hot dog, and just LOVE watching the Astros lose. Guess what, I FUCKING DON'T. Take your fake ass back to The Woodlands bitch. I speak nothing but the truth. This team is filled with perennial failures, beaners, white trash with disgusting beards, and worst of all, accountants and gardeners who held Jim Crane at knifepoint and demanded jerseys and are now hoodwinking an entire city.

That feeling when the Astros finalized a deal with Orioles for Britton but the senile old fuck of a owner vetoed the trade because he didn't want to give up britton unless he got Trout, Kershaw and Kimbrel in return for the fact that "The orioles need their closer if they start winning"

So when can the Orioles start rebuilding to shut up that old fuck?

where the fuck is Verlander?

The Yankees aren't scary now. What's scary about them is a couple years from now, when their team is filled with seasoned players under cheap team control, and then the free agent market explodes, so the Yankees deep pockets can fill any hole needed with whatever amount of money is needed. We've seen what the Dodgers are doing, but this is a whole nother level of scary. The Yankees first 5 could realistically be
1. AJ Pollock
2. Manny Machado
3. Bryce Harper
4. Aaron Judge
5. Gary Sanchez

>>77516480
McHugh: 3.24

>>77516485
he'd be 2nd to last, rocking a 4.20 ERA.

>>77516492
His postseason ERA is a solid 3.29. Keuchel would be above him with a 2.57.

I'm not sure if the others have postseason experience.

And mind you, I'm not saying they'll buy everyone, I'm just saying they could fill every single hole with the most expensive player and still be under the luxury tax for a few years. They'll likely get an arm and a bat, so just Harper and insert pitcher here

If you mean Altuve, he's never leaving Houston, even if it means throwing all of their money at him, franchise players never leave. Save for Altuve's Agent probably dick riding the Yankees or Dodgers to get him on their team. Fuck i hate big market teams..

>>77516510
Pitching has to be a concern then too. Gray has arbitration in '17 and '18. Sabathia is getting old. Tanaka is erratic.

Winning the Eries is just as much luck as anything else, but a record like 118-44 would stand for at least a generation. If they got the record and won the Eries in 2020, i don't think many dodgers fans would be upset

Unlike your sleeping pill of a sport, we actually watch other teams play as NFL fans, because the game is so good that even a Jaguars-browns thursday night shitfest is preferrable to watching 3 hours of guys playing catch and ocassionally having to move 10 feet to make a 'play'

>>77522296

You could literally apply this description to football and it wouldn't be wrong. Change "feet" to "yards" maybe.

>>77522247

>>77522316
you forgot that it's actually 90% commercials though

>>77522373
Kluber, Severino, and Sale will be the top 3 finishers in Cy Young votes. What order they finish in relies entirely on if Sale doesn't shit the bed the second half, like he usually does.

>>77522316
Except the 'catch' part of football is secondary to the incredibly intense physical chess game that goes on within every play. In baseball, there are 2 parties involved in 90% of the 'action'

AL
>Red Sox over Rays in six games
NL
>Diamondbacks over Nationals in five games
WS

Here's my prediction: The Sox go godmode in the ALDS and destroy the Indians.

Chris Sale is unstoppable in 2 starts, the 2nd on short rest.

The Sox don't have a reliable 4th guy, meaning Sale will probably opt to pitch on short rest more than once if needed. That doesn't bode well should they make it to the WS.
