    I should’ve said “since the start of the WBC.” I don’t know that all of those guys were in it. Raley I know never actually played a game.

    To be fair Diaz had a historically great last year. He is pretty much irreplaceable unless you can trade for a Clase or Doval.

    Remember last season the Mets practiced celebrating in Spring Training so he definitely could have been hurt without playing in the WBC.

    Actually that would have been a much more hilarious injury.

    Athletic did an article on young pitchers and what extensions could look like.. yes please on 6/144...

    Max Fried, 29
    Controlled through 2024
    2023 Salary: $13.5 million

    Fried, basically the only player in Atlanta who isn’t signed through 2030, starts on sturdier footing than either Burnes or Bieber because he’s a Super Two player. Like deGrom mentioned above, Fried earned enough service time to reach arbitration a year earlier than those peers. That’s why he’s making more this year than either Burnes or Bieber, and he’s slated to make more in arbitration before hitting free agency at the same time. (I’d estimate Fried to earn about $32 million over the next two seasons.)
    He’s pretty close to Bieber in terms of comps, coming in right alongside someone I brought up on Tuesday.

    2015 31-36 5.6 11.6 19.1 6 155.0 25.8 29.5


    Cain’s deal valued his free-agent years at $27 million in today’s money, Lester’s at more than $29 million. Given that Fried’s a year older than Burnes and Bieber, let’s say Atlanta buys out four free-agent years at $28 million each. Add in the $32 million over the next two years, and you get a deal for six years and $144 million — what Hamels signed a decade ago as he was about to hit the open market.

    I only got it just to be able to watch the braves. I did end up buying one of their refurbished stream boxes and having the controller with actual numbers to key in channel numbers makes it much easier to navigate.

    The interface can be real clunky on our cheap in tcl in the bedroom.

    DTV Stream just seems clunky and bad. You need a "device" to stream the content (which doesn't make sense). That's $10 a month after the 1st year so it ends up being 72 vs 110.

    I'm sure this is also a "discounted" contract that you have to hassle and renegotiate each fucking year too.

    I have a balley password but it's always kicking me out and having to get a code everytime drove me nuts. I watched was less baseball last year because of it.

    Not sure on alacart. All the premiums are that was but there are just a few package options.

    I have one of the new apple tvs and the direct app worked pretty well last night when I tried it.

    All I watch are live sports and 2 of my top 3 teams aren't on YouTube. If it's 110 in a year that's fine. My cable/internet bill was insane before I dropped it. 185 is doable until balley dies and MLB offers something else.

    Also I'm sure needing a device is for non smart tvs.

    So almost all of the outfielders we brought in are hitting and there's a bunch of them.

    Shewmake is apparently a thing.

    I have no idea what this roster looks like. We keeping 3 catchers?

    This thread’s cable/streaming discussions are always a low point for this once illustrious message board. Y’all end up paying 95% of the cost of cable and still get no Braves games and then you come in here to bitch about it and complain like some 70 year old that has no idea how to illegally stream games or use a VPN. Absolute amateur hour year after year. Idiots.

    I have access to watch as I please on hacked streams. Asking MLB to create a product suitable for 2023 vs focusing on pitch clocks, player positioning, and juiced balls doesn't seem like a bad request.

    Get cable for the 6 months that Braves play and then cancel it. It’s literally so easy that anyone besides you could do it.
