Just like a shark dies if it stops moving, a writer's gotta write, right? So, after two frustrating book projects (nobody reads books anymore...), I've decided to start a Substack newsletter. Will I be able to keep up with a weekly publication schedule? 40+ years and thousands of evergreen articles say I will. Piece of cake. I hope. Check it out. It's free until February. #FantasyBaseball

And it wouldn't shock me if Seymour was trotted out again tonight, considering their lack of options.

To better understand Bob Uecker’s significance to Brewers baseball, he called both Hank Aaron’s last MLB home run and Jackson Churio’s first.

The explicit reason for a salary cap is fairly clear.
Private equity is buying majority/minority shares of pro sports teams, and MLB owners can do that more if they have a salary-cap league that would continue to increase franchise evaluations at rates that exceed the current ones.
Owners can cash-out, PE can invest in something with more lucrative ROIs than other investment ventures, and we the sports fan gain absolutely nothing.
I keep thinking Maki doesn't have the power to play 1B in MLB, and he keeps hitting home runs. Very impressive.

He improved his walk rate from 8.8% to 9.5% and then 11.1% the past 2 seasons. MLB average is around 8.5%. He obviously won't hold a 11.1% walk rate or even a 8.5% probably. But neither will he have the worst walk rate in MLB. Brandon Lowe, Buxton and Burger seem like good comps.
