"In our day we didn't have 12 pitchers pitching per game, we actually had one pitcher start and pitch half the game, and we liked it!"
Ben Clemens

We had a universal DH instead of three universal DH's!

Loopy, slider, slutter

the fact that pitch com had to make more buttons just for Darvish is the greatest fact of all time

I'm pretty sure the Phillies already have 3 DHs
Ben Clemens
8:25
They're a team ahead of their time

Where's pinball enthusiast Dylan Higgins when you need him?
8:27
I'd be happy with a moat, of course
shout out to Sam Miller

I still secretly hope that the real future of baseball is Super Baseball 2020 for the SNES

Okay, so the graphic for Bell/Wheeler said 'includes postseason'
Have they faced off against each other in the palyoffs? Certainly not right?

5yr/200 offer to Judge. Full no trade, opt-out after each season. Mutual option 40M/20M buyout. Does he accept?
Ben Clemens
8:28
Like when has Bell made the playoffs?
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:28
I don't think he does
Is 5/200 really THAT much different than 7/200?
ANd he could have gotten that BEFORE the season
Ben Clemens
8:28
It's like..... 30 million bucks different, but I'm with you Dan

But I mean the expectation for the out years is so low anyway
Ben Clemens
8:29
you don't think he could get 2/30 at 36? I bet he could
but yeah
it's certainly not 80 million dollars different

Why did everyone get mad about upsets this playoffs when the Red Sox did this last year, Nationals 2019, or god forbid whatever the Cardinals did in 2006? It's not like the Padres or Phillies aren't super obscure out of the media's focus teams
Ben Clemens
8:30
The Braves won literally last year after 88 wins
Kyle Kishimoto
8:30
I wonder what Twitter would have looked like after the Phillies won it all with 83 wins
Electric guest

Personally I'm mad that there weren't more upsets on the AL side.

I too was rooting mainly for chaos.
Ben Clemens

Dan, if you were judge, would you accept 8/280?
I would

We need to celebrate the regular season winner more. MLS has the Community Shield that is celebrated by players and fans alike.
Kyle Kishimoto
8:32
I would totally be in favor of a regular season trophy.
Davy Andrews
8:32
Me too, but I would want it to be comically small.

Just a scrap of metal, literally

Does anyone in the NHL, fan or player, care about the President's Trophy?
Ben Clemens
8:33
No, but it helps that the Stanley Cup is the most iconic trophy in sports

Look at the 1991 World Series.  The Braves & Twins went from the basement in 1990 to WS in 1991
