Opening Day for AA/High-A/Low-A... But first:

I have watched a lot of minor league baseball the last few years... That's one of the worst challenges I can remember. There's going to be a learning curve.

I for one think that other sports should just follow Netflix's lead and live mic all the Wolves ant won't pass the ball to. Cut to Pete Alonso interviewing his henchman on second and eight.

Major pet peeve: The superimposed ads that distract from the action, particularly if there's a high degree of contrast. It's not the end of the world at SF since the ad is offset. Setups like Philly's, where the ball disappears or changes colors, are abominable.

What do you think the Tigers argument was during the arb hearing? "Yes, he won the Cy twice, and yes we've leaned him on like crazy, and yes he's broadly recognized as the best pitcher in the game... but did you know that in 2018 he had a start in college where he walked six guys in the first?!"
