    Gambling note: over the Reds' last 20 games you could have laid -2.5 runs with their opponents (as opposed to the regular -1.5 run line) and gone 15-5. That's crazy.

    Cincinnati Reds are the biggest joke of a baseball team since the last year of the Cleveland Spiders.

    Reds just leaving flamethrowing phenom Hunter Greene in to give up five homers in less than three innings and turn a 3-run first-inning cushion into a four-run deficit.

    I'm not so sure, the AVG daily attendance in Oakland is .....4,700.....no not a typo. And the A's had the audacity to DOUBLE ticket prices this year. That's the very definition of a joke of a baseball (or any big 3 professional) franchise in the 21st Century. I hope they move to LV and melt into the landscape. As a former taxpayer in OAK, f**k them, they've done nothing to deserve any public handouts from Oak and I hope they never get a ballpark in Oak.

    If you were wondering if MLB’s deal with Apple TV replaces its YouTube deal, nope.

    Since their final 2-3 years in Philadelphia, it's hard to think of a franchise more mismanaged than the A's. With rare exceptions, like Walter Haas, they've been cursed with so many bad, cheap, vindictive and/or underfunded owners, starting with Earle and Roy Mack.

    What's worse is that counts the 17,000 they had for their Opening Day

    I thought for a minute there I was watching another Madison Cawthorn video.

    Watered down product and raising prices? Owned by a newspaper chain?

    Ohtani goes 7 shutout inns, 11 Ks, 0 BB, plus 2-4 in 3 hole. That's amazing.

    Impressive day. He was flat-out dealing.

    I'd never seen an Ohtani game pitching, not the whole thing, because he pitches past my bedtime. He was most most impressive.
