I guess if you follow the A's from Montana, the team moving might not be an issue and if anything it may motivate them to try and be competitive.

But what ownership has done in the last decade is pretty deplorable. And Cubs fans don't get to complain. Winning a title = moratorium on complaining for at least 20 years.

Bearcat-Doug | 5,125 Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 The National League looks wide open. Things could be interesting at the trade deadline, especially for the teams close to a wild card spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's my daily melancholy dump now: I might as well rename this the Reds news and historically bad A's season thread. It's like how the yearly football thread ends up being 99% about the Dolphins and 49ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kguillemette | 1,635 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Popping in to say I was enjoying watching Boston quietly put together a decent year where they could still make a run at the wildcard. Now I am quietly pretending this year never happened and when do we give up on the Bloom experiment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be some Houston fans that would post in the MLB threads, but they haven't showed up this season. @NESfiend is a Cardinals fan, but I have a feeling that he doesn't want to talk about how they're doing.

Was this thread created to kick me while I am down? Mo needs to be fired 3 years ago. Strange as it may sound, I am also a tigers fan. Despite not being super relevant, they have been better than expected and show some promise for the future. About the only positive I can think of this season.

About the only positive I can think of this season. I make a MLB thread every year, but it usually turns into a support group for fans of losing teams. The Reds are hanging in there and they've brought up several of their best prospects already to get MLB experience, so at least next season could be interesting.

You think the Cubs had it bad? The Phillies had to wait 97 years (and only two NL Championships before that) just to get their FIRST World Series Championship!

docile tapeworm | 4,275 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) @Bearcat-Doug a guy at work gave me a huge tote of opened packs of cards. He said he used to work at the dump and someone trashed them. He said his son opened all the packs pulled what he wanted and put the others back in (and that his son “really didn’t know what he was looking at”). Well I been going through them little by little and honest had given up finding anything. My one year old son pulled this pack out of the tote a few days ago and it’s been getting tossed around the living room. Tonight I decide to look through it and well….. it’s no 10 but I bet it’s a 50 dollar card. Edited June 13, 2023 by docile tapeworm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just glad they are competitive. The Reds actually have a winning record and are only 0.5 games out of first place. The Central divisions in both leagues are terrible, but for the Reds to go from losing 100 games last season to division winners without any real effort outside of promoting their top minor leaguers would be pretty wild.

Been a fun team to bet and watch lately. 73 games in, showing that the cards suck no longer hurts. I gave up 20 games ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
