The regular season kicks off in Japan tomorrow super early in the morning. Dodgers are small favorites in Tuesday morning‘s duel between Japanese starters. Anyone betting on this?

Peel has a thread

I will not be awake for these games much like many MLB games
 
Took advantage of the DK boost on Freddie Freeman. My only play for this but happy baseball is back.
 
I played this on cubs pitcher gm 1 and I like it with Steele also. It pricey at -165 but Steele under 4.5 hits allowed where I’m at. Dodgers lineup a tad depleted but they still work counts and take walks, I can’t imagine Steele staying in long enough to give up 5+ hits, he getting hit like that he won’t be in long imo. Most likely he either really good and goes 5 innings, or he walks some guys and his pitch count up and he out after 3/4 innings, don’t think he will give up 5 hits in that time frame. I thought bout being greedy and pairing with cubs 1st 5 but I don’t know anything about this jap cat pitching for lad.
 
Hey whattaya know. Fifth inning meltdown as usual.

soon as cubs pen came in. I happened to wake up and ended up playing cubs Ff, thought I had it but damn dodgers even missing guys managed to get 4 walks off Imanaga who really don’t walk ppl. Soon as he left game I was worried, cubs pen vs lad pen is a mismatch from hell, I mean cubs have a guy they jumped on soon as lad cut from their pen. Bad enough all
The talent dodgers have now the pen is insane, think they thru 4 no hit innings!
 
I’ve got quite a bit on this one, but I am not going to wake up to watch this time. Hopefully wake up to a nice start - keep in mind these plays are decently correlated:

Cubs ML +130
Cubs F5 TT O1.5 +100
Saski U12.5 Outs -130 (think it’s way up now)
Played DK super boost even though I don’t love it of either Ohtani or Tucker to get an RBI +100

Here’s to hoping I wake up and don’t have to become apathetic to my Cubbies before the season really even starts
 
Mmkay just woke up and will watch this shit and interact if people are awake. I don't really enjoy regular season baseball per se but at 2:30 am it's this or ping pong
 
I like Steele tonight. Fuck the Dodgers. Hate both pens.

Cubs ff is how I'm playing this shit. It's cold which isn't really a thing in March here. but high 40s, desert breeze. Feels like some frozen bullshit.
 
By the way peel that corned beef linguine was so good I told them it needs to be on the everyday menu

I rarely give a shit about food but that dish....every bite was like I was on cloud nine

I’ve actually made something very similar. Corned beef pasta salad, drenched in russian or 1,000 island. You actually reminded me of it cause I totally forgot about it.

Had to order no cabbage but that's a personal thing

Sauce was white wine and dijon mustard. Incredible. Kim and I sat there for over two hours (mid day so no real disruption for the server) but I actually kept eating bites til we left. Never do that.

Love that. I found the recipe I used. It was a "Reuben Pasta Salad". So essentially the samething.

Going to listen to Sympathy for the Devil on repeat during this game because the Dodgers and Cubs are literally of the devil
 
We can talk about how cool that Alabama State win was but that call on the broadcast sounded like you could be reading War and Peace. Holy shit that was terrible.

Yeah, I noticed the same thing. Funny how Jay Wright and Jalen essentially had almost no reaction while watching live in studio too.
 
Just shut the game off. Remember when Justin Steele was an all-star and in the cy young talks a few years back? Yeah me too. He's figured out now. Brutal.

Man I think I'm still young but went to a party Saturday night, year 22...complete St Pat's party which it's always been. But this year 4 bagpipers in their 70's/80's paid tribute to four people we lost over the last year. I get that it's going to be the norm but fuck man I'm too young to comprehend that shit. People around my age dying doesn't pass the smell test.
 
Going out on a limb and took the Doyers to win the WS +268. They’re too stacked for the rest of the league. Can’t beat em join em.

And it's only going to be happening more and more as we go on. Take care of yourself and others best you can man. Our time here is extremely short.

Wish there was a care emoji but that's what I'm trying to post. It's not been a fun year in that sense. People healthy and younger than me passing away.

Fuck man my family lives into the 90s and I don't want that! Going to have to work on just getting fucked up.
