Apparently you can pay $299 to have a cardboard cutout of your face in the stadium. The Dodgers sold 4500 them. That will make a little dent in that Betts contract.

They need to make those cutouts flinch when ball are fouled straight back.

Yeah. Totally agree. Thing about arod is he’s a pretty face and apparently thinks about baseball all the time. So I’m sure the powers that be said he checks off a couple boxes. Now that he’s been dating j-lo he’s become more irritating because he has pr people working with him to get in the media and project a wholesome image. He still comes across as a dolt now it’s just amplified when he’s on social media every week.

I actually liked it. Better than empty seats.
I think they should green screen behind the plate and play different crowds onto it. They could have fun with it. Put each team's home crowds, dogs/cats, whatever. Would be fun. maybe.

Wonder if the players can hear that piped in crowd noise or if it's just for tv?

CB Bucknor already in midseason form umping the Cubs/Brewers game. Two awful pitch calls and not even through an inning. Mind bottling that guy still has a job.

The fake crowd noise people didn't know what to do. Should they cheer? Do we have a sarcastic cheer?

Braves lineup is SCARY good.... have some good options on the bench too. If they can find a solid 3-5 in the starting rotation I think they have a shot this year.

Interesting that there were no sweeps on the weekend. The last undefeated team were the Padres who lost yesterday afternoon.
