We could basically give him Sale’s money plus JDM’s, and net a roster spot.
Oh yeah, I think we may actually be strong contenders in the Ohtani sweepstakes (especially since Bloom and the FO have, ah, practiced some financial restraint going into this season) and we'd be a pretty logical fit from an on-field perspective. The idea of a decade of building teams around Ohtani and Devers is pretty exciting. Not letting myself get too invested in the possibility, obviously, but I'd expect us to at least be in the mix to land him.

I think he's fine in his role as pre and post game host. I much prefer Jahmai as the in game reporter and please, even once a year in the booth is 10 times too many.
I like Jahmai, but he's no Gary Striewski...who I saw yesterday hosting SportsCenter?! The Red Sox sideline reporter gig has a pretty good track record for future success.

I'm not a fan of the in game interview (most guests in the booth being an exception), but I think Jahmai does a decent interview and does a nice job with the "My Story" series.

For sure; Heidi Watney and Jenny Dell have done very well.

OB must not watch mlbn. "Are we giving this guy his due?" The guy is frequently being described as greater than Babe Ruth, the best in the history of the game.

Ump missed strike 3, but Bello definitely has to bear down and keep throwing strikes. The HBP and the homer were really awful pitches

One of the downsides of having half your rotation injured to start the year is you then need to give each of them a few starts to get their legs under them.

Have to imagine the weather and the delay are a factor here, Bello doesn't seem to have any feel for the slider and keeps leaving the sinker up. That or he's overamped.
