Around Baseball 2023

Everyone seems to be throating the Reds right now like they are this new young, great team and the team to beat in the NL Central.

 

While they certainly are hot and everyone loves Elly - I just don't see this ending well for them. They don't have the depth or the pitching to keep this up.

 

Reds are still at least 1-2 years away before they start making some real noise in the NL Central. They should be a fun team to watch for the rest of this season and moving forward.

 

Brewers likely will take a back seat once Burnes and Woodruff leave via free agency. Cardinals core is getting older. Cubs look like they could be promising but they'll likely have to add some arms along the way. Pirates will always be the Pirates but they should continue to improve. Overall NL Central could be wide open in the next year or so especially if the Brewers and Cardinals take a step back.

Love seeing Votto come back with a big night. One more decent half season to really lock in the HOF.

Interesting. Would anyone here buy one of those hats? I would not.

Logo on the side is a little bit big but otherwise they aren't bad. I probably wouldn't buy one either way though.

Sides are too busy

Agree, those logos on the side are too large for the hat. Shrink them a bit and they'd be wearable, but yeah they dont really stand out much from a normal team hat.

The Guardians are a terrible org... how can they not call up Karinchak today when eligible. I still don't get why they optioned him in the first place???

Best guess is a clubhouse issue. Wasn't there some issue with Karinchak before?

That’s like me playing The Show and pressing the R1 button when I didn’t need to

The covid thing, that's it I believe? Nah, that was Clevinger and Plesac, I don't think he's an issue.
