Re: MLB 2020: A New Hope
There is no way in Hell that the NL East is going to be that competitive, and I can't see the AL Central being that lopsided, despite the Twins additions.
I do fear they have accurately predicted the NL Central, right down to the winner barely being above .500. Is it possible for the winner to be *below* .500?“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

Re: MLB 2020: A New Hope
Is Baltimore still fielding a major league team or did they drop down to AAA? 63 wins? Think I'll take the under on that one.Legally drunk???? If its "legal", what's the ------- problem?!? - George Carlin

Originally posted by Hammer View PostThey’re about 10 games too optimistic on the Tigers. They’re not improving 22 games by signing Schoop, Cron and Nova.
I like that they're projected above the Royals, but even KC has playoff hopes (0.1%) while the Tigers have none.Go Green! Go White! Go State!

Originally posted by French Rage View PostMy wife and I were in Vegas a couple weekends back for the Fortress Tournament since Cornell was there. We were in the MGM Signature so we walked a lot through the MGM Grand to get to other places. They had a kiosk where Pete Rose was signing autographs. Note this wasn't on the actual casino floor, this way waaaaay off of it where there were just a couple gift shops and a some fast food spots. Like, one of the very empty parts of the whole complex. And they still had a guy out in the walkway trying to get people to (I'm assuming) pay for autographs and I didn't see anyone in there the whole weekend. But that's what happened when you violate the basic integrity of the sport.I gotta little bit of smoke and a whole lotta wine...

Re: MLB 2020: A New Hope
You know what, after the initial scoffing I'm all for the adoption of expanded playoff teams. But if and only if the DH is abolished.“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

Of course, I would also be OK returning the league to 1968.
Or 1948 if we swap the Braves with the Mets.Last edited by Kepler; 02-11-2020, 09:55 PM.Cornell University

Re: MLB 2020: A New Hope
I'm okay with expanded playoffs if the season cuts back. 150 games sound right? Maybe 140?Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.
