Did you catch the video of Ichiro coming out in full uni to throw the first pitch with a full windup? Awesome.

From what I read, Chicago offered him the biggest contract. Looking at the deals the Giants made, they clearly have enough payroll to match/go over Chicago's offer and still sign Joc Pederson on that one-year deal.
Farhan and Baer are going all-in with their farm system and that's great. But after the first 9 games of the season, Seiya's production better than all the Giants' outfielders. I don't see how Slater and or Duggar are valued more than Suzuki at this point. IMO, I would've kept Duggar for his speed on the bases and let Dubon or Slater walk.
With Heliot Ramos, Matos, Luciano, and even Bishop on the wings. It looks like the Giants will be fine.
But coming off a big year with 107 wins, signing an big name from Japan, along with all the signings they've done this year, would have a been great.

Nor did I imply that anyone was …
Just sayin' that if he ever reaches the same level, he might be known by his first name only, like Cher, ya know?
I do like that the Giants didn't let last season's unexpectedly strong team sway them from their disciplined approach to signings and free agency, though I thought they might make a bigger splash with Posey's unexpected retirement. Seiya was the only right-handed bat I wanted them to sign, but in the end I think the Carlos Rodon signing will prove to be more important.
I'm not exactly sure how close the Giants' hitting prospects are. Ramos had a good cameo, but Matos and Luciano won't make their debuts this season. Doubtful that Luciano will stick at SS, but his bat will take him very far, indeed.
Although I'm from NL but I haven't heard about DH. I have to google it in the internet https://www.google.com/. Or maybe because I'm new in gaming? I think I should be up-to-date to info at least in my country.
He's one of the most humble players to ever play the game. Just a decent human being, all around IMO. Happy to see him hit that milestone. He's a first-ballot guy, for sure.Miggy got # 3000.

That bit yesterday with the Guardians outfielders was a terrible look.

I agree, the come from behind victory for my Yankees was mired by the horrible fans in right field. Their display was unacceptable and I hope they are banned for the season.
Yeah no excuses for what they did. And it's unfortunate that some people looking at that and saying the entire fanbase is like that, which is not true at all.Sadly, some of their fans haven't
Speaking of the Yankees, they're somehow tied for best record in the AL. I know that doesn't matter in April, but it's shocking given how abysmal their offense has been up until today.
Kyle Schwarber was right. If you haven't seen it, and would like to:

I don't understand how Angel Hernandez has had such a long stint as the most incompetent umpire in the history of Major League Baseball. Obviously, any evaluation of umpires done by MLB has no impact on weeding out those who clearly got the job in error. The union must be protecting him, and others who are pretty bad, such as Laz Diaz. Joe West wasn't so good either, but he retired.

Kyle Schwarber, who lost it after a ninth-inning call by Ángel Hernández, sounded off after the game.

Yeah, that was disgraceful. Hopefully there will be some appropriate punishment for the guilty parties.
So what happened?Sadly, some of their fans haven't
Fans in Yankee Stadium throw trash, beer cans at Guardians outfielders following walk-off win

What I did like, was the Yankee players actually went out and tried to stop their fans from throwing stuff. Sadly, the fans, doesn't matter what stadium you are at, can be real jerks. I agree with others, hopefully some of these folks have been ID'ed and the appropriate punishment has been leveled against them.
I am glad to see the Yankees looking "a little" better!
I’ve been in other ballparks, and you’re right on fans being jerks. I’ve seen some awful behavior, even during meaningless spring training games.
That I don't know... I would assume all of them sell beer. And I would imagine that contributes if not the major contributor to the fans being jerks!
