>my face when "people" actually think the team with the best pitching depth in the NL and a top 10 offense in the MLB will miss the playoffs this season

>Justin Turner (objectively and statistically a top 5 third baseman, it isn't even debatable)
>Hyun-jin Ryu (best Pitcher in the game who will be 100% healthy, unlike the entirety of last year, he will put up 1.98 ERA, 280 SOs, and a sub 1.000 WHIP)
>Cory Seager (a top 3 shortstop already and going into this season will be fully recovered from causing all those errors in the NLDS (2.9+ dWAR, .290 BA )
>((((Joc Pederson))))(literally a top defensive outfielder that is way better than just a platoon guy .700 OBP)
>Josh Reddick (top 10 hitter in the NL 35 HRs, .700+ slg,)
>Kike Hernandez (a white guy trapped in a black's body, one of the smartest players in baseball, elite measurables, incredible upside)
>Adrean Gonalez(one of the fastest and most explosive players in baseball)
>Clayton Kershaw(one of the best post season pitchers)

>Best Bullpen depth in the NL
>Best pitching staff in the MLB
>Best infield in the MLB
>Top 5 total

Barring major injuries to key players, there is literally no way the Dodgers are losing the NL west this season

The Dodgers WS win drought ends in 2017

Do you guys remember in 2013 and 2014 when the only two words Cubs fan knew how to say was "MUH PROSPEKTS".

Every day same thing
>muh prospekts
>but muh prospekts
>prospekts prospekts prospekts

Remember that?

And then they broke their postseason drought in 2015 making it to the NLCS
And then they won the world series the year after in 2016

How does this make you feel when remembering "MUH PROSPEKTS"?

A failure
>>
>>78258923
not really though
the only money in question is the 4 seasons between 2020 and 2023 after which he'll probably sign a huge deal anyway with a similar if not greater annual value than whatever he would get as a free agent in 2 years.

if he waited he'd probably make something like 25-30M a year for those seasons, if he comes over, with arbitration he'll like 10-15M a year for those seasons. not a huge difference.

The A's literally built there draft around those who had good plate discipline through college, and made it punishable if you didn't take your walks in the minors. What happened to all of those shining stars?

How about Jeremy Brown? The A's specifically targeted him in the 2002 draft because of his plate discipline in college. He wasn't a good defensive catcher, particularly due to his weight, but they thought his plate discipline and power would make up for it. You probably know him best from the scene in Moneyball where they're watching the video of a minor league player tripping over first base, and and running back to first base, not realizing he hit a home run. He lasted 5 games in the majors. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=4512&position=DH
In fact, the only player who the A's drafted in 2002 that actually went on to do anything was fucking Nick Swisher.
>>
>>78264918
And how about a more contemporary answer? Just look at Aaron Judge. He hit for extreme power first half, and had elite plate discipline. His plate discipline has pretty much stayed the same from the first half to the second half, yet Judge has still hit a really hard slump.

That Indians game was amazing. Baseball at its best. A great piece of oppo hitting by Naquin on a 2 strike count to put the tying man on. Then the ending of the streak came down to one strike and Lindor delivered with his own piece of brilliant hitting (I love when pitchers attack away on defensive counts only to get burned by opposite field hitting).

what in the actual fuck. since its baseball and not top heavy like NFL or NBA where you know GSW will destroy everyone except for the Cavs, you know a team can have an off night any given night. What the fuck 22 in a row. I remember 15 being a lot. This is ridiculous.

So what's the verdict, /mlb/?

Are the Indians the official record holders?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Major_League_Baseball_longest_winning_streaks

>The 1916 New York Giants hold the record for the longest unbeaten streak in MLB history at 26 games, although an unrecorded tie-game occurred in the middle of the streak.

>Unbeaten streak
>Tie game.

I say yes.
>>
>>78269253
...i thought snooker was just the british word for pool
>>
>>78269145
>Do you guys like snooker?

I like all the cue games (various forms of pool, 3 cushion billiards, snooker). As a lifelong player, snooker is hard to play here since a pool room might only have couple of 12 footers, and they are always occupied by gamblers playing a game called golf.

Fun fact. Canadian World Champ Cliff Thorburn, unknown in the States at the time, hustled a big time golf game for like 100K back in the late 70s.
>>
>>78269285
26 is the record. It's unfair to punish them because they literally weren't allowed to finish a game, and if the game doesn't count towards season stats, then there's no reason for it to count here.
>>
>>78269097
top kek, that shit was like a movie

>>78269423
cleveland fans will acknowledge that 26 is the record if/when they reach it
>>
>>78269457
If they get to 27 they will, yeah. I hope they do because it's fucking stupid that people are treating the 26 as some asterisked streak.

>it's fucking stupid that people are treating the 26 as some asterisked streak.
i agree, if anything the fact that it comes from the 1910's should matter infinitely more (and even that doesn't change the record)
>>
>>78269285
nobody even brought this up before injuns started on the streak desu

tbf no one even brought up the cubs win streak, all you heard about was the moneyball streak, it's basically the modern record. not that any of that matters because no one will ever shut the fuck up until they break every relevant record, legitimate or not

how is it not asterisked? you go to wikipedia and there's a footnote on it, everyone is constantly debating it's legitimacy, and it's unlike every other record streak in that they had a game that wasn't a win in the middle of it. it's the literal definition of asterisked

>but win streaks don't count if you're literally not fucking allowed to finish a game

>>
Honestly, given Cleveland's schedule they can get to 27. I can see them sweeping Kansas City and taking 2 from Anaheim. If they don't, it's still incredibly impressive to have the second longest win streak in the history of baseball. Whether or not you agree with the Elias Sports Bureau's(The Official statkeepers of Major League Baseball) decision to not consider ties as games played really is irrelevant, because they do that and thus the 1916 New York Giants do hold the record for longest winning streak in Major League history.

The bungholes have two AFC titles and no super bowl wins. and a playoff record of 5-14. yikes.

26 is the record, but the player stats did count towards the rest of the season. They stopped The game because it was too dark, but they replayed it the next day by making the next day a double header. It was the 1916 equivalent of a suspended game; back then, they just replayed it ASAP because no one wanted to see two innings of baseball.

and that's fine, I'd rather have characters at the all-star game too, fuck it, Big Sexy should represent the NL at the dinger party but it's ostensibly an event for the best first half players and your point that sanchez deserved a spot due to having comparable stats to LoMo at the end of the year under conditions you deem fair is quite frankly stupid my good man

Thank you Irma

Sure they could. But the playoff games in the middle wouldn't count.

Redirecting Norcal water so that people could live in the deserts of Socal was a mistake.

We should turn that useless leaky faucet off and keep it for ourselves.

No, it's right.
When have postseason records ever counted toward the regular season?

LoMo's entire complaint relied on two points: 1) It's not fair that the HRD is a popularity contest, and they only pick popular players. and 2) I had more home runs than this guy who missed a month of the season.

The HRD has always been a popularity contest for the best power hitters. Do you think the fans would rather see someone who just came off a historic rookie season, while playing in the pressure cooker known as New York City, and who was also putting up good power numbers for this season despite missing the first month; or a literally who having a career year? That's a pretty obvious choice. Sanchez also had the added boost to being in the HRD because he was on the All-Star roster (which was deserved). It was always a dumb controversy, and LoMo looked like a jackass when he complained about it.

I agree completely.

You should have traded him.

Twins, Mariners, Royals, and angels fans: all of you could grab a WC spot, but all of you have a series left with the Indians. Honestly, how do you feel. Is anybody jealous that NYC doesn't have to face Cleveland again this season?

Are you jinxing our streak?
Stop it please

No. I'm genuinely curious on how people feel about
>our
team. And the Yankees. People might have guessed a close ALWC race, but no one saw the Indians getting THIS hot. But 4/5 of the teams within 5 out of the second WC spot have 3 games each against Cleveland. Only Rangers (and Yankees) don't, but they have a series against Houston.

It's just crazy.
>>
>>78276902
>Royals
Royals weren't going to be successful even if they somehow got to the postseason, everyone's playing while badly hurt and 80% of the pitchers are playing while badly bad
We got ours already

>>78276877
But why? We can keep him and win the World Series as well.

I'm not sure what's the point of what you're asking other than kinda coming off a bit cocky, and I say this as a fellow Tribe fan (assuming you are one too and not just a falseflagger since you don't recognize the dutchbro).
I suggest you read or watch any of Tito's comments about the streak and how it's just about taking it a game at a time, and each day is different. Any of the teams left on *our* schedule can just as well beat *us* on any given day. 22 consecutive wins doesn't really change that.

The Indians have been blessed by repeating numbers. I think they will break the 26 game streak.
