Takes

It currently pays to be cheap in MLB because teams with the highest payrolls are all failing

The Mets fucking suck... everyone's pissed off at [Buck Showalter] and it kind of like speaks to a larger trend in Baseball This year, which is that the teams with the highest payrolls, they are all underperforming. Yeah. So you it pays to be cheap in Major League Baseball.

Luis Arraez chasing a .400 batting average is as electric as a home run chase

Luis Arraez of the Marlins... he was hitting 401 as of Saturday... if he ends up like, I mean hitting 400 would be insane in this day and age. Going down the stretch... those are gonna be electric games to watch. Yes. It'd be still close to 400 every single at bat. That to me is, that to me is almost as good as watching like a home run chase.

A team that missed the playoffs last year will play in the World Series this year

My take is a team that didn't make the playoffs last year is going to appear in the World Series. We have a lot of new blood. If you look at the standings This year... the Rangers are 47 and 30... and the Diamondbacks are in first place over the Dodgers. So there's gonna be a lot of fresh faces in the playoffs This year.

Shohei Ohtani is having the greatest baseball season ever and might be the best player to ever live

It's not unfair to say that [Ohtani] is having the best Baseball season in the history of Baseball. And when you look, when you, when you break it down, he might be the best Baseball player to ever step onto a diamond. It's insane.
