  1. He would need to be hotter than he already is now, which is saying something. With the way Timmy it going, you can't say no, but at the same time, that is a big ask.
  2. With the lack of off days, pitching is way more important than it was before.
  3. This is the key. A normal year has travel days between home and road games built in.
  4. And if any teams out there think Mendick is the superior player, I would love to make a deal with them that reflects Danny' status as a projected 2B starter in the majors.
  5. While he was great with the bat, he was AWFUL behind the plate last night. Uncharacteristically so.
  6. It is a false idea that there isn't a significant difference between the skill level of a 80 win team and a 90 win team. Especially if we are going to play a series of games and not a single game, while you will have upsets, the creme will still mostly rise to the top. I mean look at the NCAAs. They play one game to move on, they have upsets early, but at the end of the day, the Final Four is almost always elite teams, with an occasional fluke mixed in.
  7. Can become a millionaire is a significant move of the goalposts from must be a millionaire. It is also a much bigger move from the speaking in racist code idea that somehow the league with the most black players, yet a lower crime rate than the nation at large, Congress, or the current Presidential Administration, is somehow the thing associated with felons.
  8. Half the league doesn't see that money, so they get nothing. Another big chunk of the league is playing these extra games at a much lower rate than if they were making regular salary. The only spot where players make a real chunk of money is getting to the World Series.
  9. That is trash, and the Dodgers are a great example of why. They were a lock to get into the playoffs this year, yet still went out and brought in Mookie Betts.
  10. Owners make a LOT more money in the playoffs, which is why they want them. A guy like Mike Trout isn't making $35 million a year in the playoffs, he is making the same as everyone else.
  11. You would need to save literally all your money on the lower end of the pay scale during your 3.3 year career to be a millionaire. Your math STILL doesn't work.
  12. So by the time you take taxes and agents money out of this, and then consider that the average NFL career is 3.3 years, your math is still bad.
  13. Most players make less for the playoffs than the do the regular season, especially as you get deeper into the playoffs. it is just more money for the owners who are paying their star players a fraction of what they usually make.
