I am seeing A LOT of people reposting this/quoting this. When I go to MLB dot tv I do not see this listed. The only things listed are for the offseason package, MLB Network+ at bat, and MLB Network. When I go to ESPN I also can find nothing related to MLBtv. Maybe MLB/ESPN deleted it?

I love the world we live in where words have zero meaning anymore.

Today has been a hell of a week.

Six Cincinnati #Reds will be participating in the World Baseball Classic, but Eugenio Suarez is the only big leaguer from the group www.redlegnation.com/2026/02/05/s...

Team Netherlands has Ryjeteri Merite on the roster. The LHP dominated in the Dominican Summer League for the Reds in 2025. He had a 0.81 ERA in 11 starts/3 relief appearances. 33.1 innings, 23 hits, 15 walks, 44 strikeouts.

I know that I'm not the target audience for this show, but just give me the rosters for the 20 teams!

So in this fantasy world of a salary cap in baseball.... How does arbitration work? Do you have to have the hearings on like November 1st?

This sucks. I don't use any music streaming service. But when I want to listen to music at home, I pull up a video on youtube, then go about my day listening to it that way.

ESPN's Cincinnati #Reds prospect list notes just how many potential power hitters they have throughout the farm system www.redlegnation.com/2026/02/05/e...

Someone reposted this onto my timeline. The video started autoplaying at the same time I was listening to some Le Tigre and it broke my brain for a second. Kathleen Hanna >>>>>>>> Kid Rock

Just got my internet/cable bill. A new $5 per month fee is applied to mail me my bill. But also a another surcharge of just over $4 for paying with a credit card instead of a debit card. This kind of shit is exhausting.

Batting average is more important than what some of you want to admit. It's also less important than what a lot of other people want to admit. Thank you for coming to my DUGTalk.

Good news: I am feeling so much better today than I was yesterday when I pushed myself through a bunch of work that took way longer than it otherwise would have. Bad news: I have a ton of work I am trying to do today because I feel good and have time.

I probably spent 90 minutes editing the video and then transcribing all of this. Go read or watch what Eugenio Suarez had to say this afternoon so I don't feel like I wasted my time when I could have been back in bed.

I say this every NBA trade deadline, but if I ever have to learn what a trade exception is or how to calculate it for my job, I swear to God I am going to hunt down everyone who rooted for a salary cap in MLB and fill the air vents in their cars with bees

Shout out to the instagram ad I just got asking if I wanted to work at a pizza place. In Tucson, Arizona. Which is approximately 1,800 miles from where I live.

Gentle reminder to not have a substack, don't start a substack, don't read anyone who writes at substack. And by gentle, I want to scream about it every day. They don't have some monopoly on sending emails to people.

Absolutely insane. Get me out of here, man.

Phew for now www.dispatch.com/story/news/c...

This has been updated in the last 10 minutes with new information that was not available when it was originally published this afternoon. We now have pricing and information on where games will be available to fans. Once again - tell your friends.

No one wants it.

Looking at the "others receiving votes" totals like

Some big news about the #Reds broadcasts for 2026. Tell your friends.

Losing the ability to click a starting point and an ending point in the @baseball-reference.com game logs and get the stats for that time range for minor league players has been a real time killer. It still works for big leaguers, but hasn't for minor leaguers for months now.

I quit.

Gonna retire from baseball writing and start up a cooking channel. My dinner tonight: 1 package of Easy Mac. 1 can of green beans. How many views would that video get? 1, 2 million?

The front page of Redleg Nation currently has photos of Joey Votto and Eugenio Suarez on it and it feels weird

The Cincinnati #Reds got their power bat, signing free agent Eugenio Suarez for 2026 www.redlegnation.com/2026/02/01/c...

Gmail cutting off the ability for me to use my third party email's on the computer, but not in the app, is going to be the thing that makes me lose it. I know that I'm the weirdo here, but I just don't use my phone for the internet. I do 99% of my internetting on a computer.

The Caribbean Series starts this afternoon. I haven't been able to find all of the rosters, but so far the only Reds player I've seen on a roster is Ichiro Cano, who is on the Team Mexico Verde (Culiacan) roster. Hector Rodriguez is not listed with the DR team. No Reds on the Panama squad.

Shout out @psr1973.bsky.social

Was talking farm system rankings and it all got me to thinking how the Reds farm system has historically rated. Baseball America has been ranking farm systems since 1984. That's 43 years worth. Cincinnati has never ranked 1st or 2nd. They've ranked 3rd once, 4th once, and 5th once.

Not the best place to be when you plan to build through the farm system and are already well behind several teams in your own division at the big league level.

Had to leave the house today for about 2-3 hours. Came back to an incredible shit storm of news. More evidence that I should never leave.

So I have a lot of questions here.... According to the story here, the city is spending $2,200,000 to "repair or install 99 new cameras". Folks, that's over $22,000 PER CAMERA. And some of them are ones that just need repaired, not bought and installed.

I know that this is all still fairly far away, but I'm not thrilled about this forecast.

Former Cincinnati #Reds star Joey Votto returns to the broadcast booth/studio www.redlegnation.com/2026/01/29/f...

Some days I truly wonder if they are the dumbest people alive or if they just believe we are

The 2026 Chattanooga Lookouts Coaching Staff has been announced and it's largely unchanged from last year www.redsminorleagues.com/2026/01/29/2...

He was foiled when his FBI shirt was one of those female body inspector versions.

The 2026 Cincinnati #Reds are projected to finish below .500 and in 3rd place www.redlegnation.com/2026/01/29/2...

The Louisville Bats coaching staff for 2026 has been announced and there are a lot of familiar names returning, but there's also a new role and a new coach to the organization filling in www.redsminorleagues.com/2026/01/29/2...

Ohio is stupid. It is entirely too cold out right now.

When you sign up for/get signed up for these emails they begin INSTANTLY. But when you unsubscribe from them it may take 7-10 days before you stop getting the emails. Burn it all to the ground.

I do not remember how this came into my possession, but it hung on my wall for several years along. Not bootleg, but still wild and I wanted to share.

The Cincinnati #Reds have signed right-handed pitcher Darren McCaughan and invited him to spring training www.redlegnation.com/2026/01/28/c...

This was written for me.

I will never get over the fact that ESPN covers a soap opera.
