About time for cancelling blackouts!!! That would help bring back baseball's popularity as more people would be able to watch without paying stupid extra money
I am an Apple TV + subscriber in the Philadelphia area. When the Phillies were on one Friday night this past season, I couldn't get on. I suspect there were so many people in the area trying to get on that they couldn't handle it.
Ending blackouts would be game changing. It would make the fan experience even better along with the revenue share which would make the game even more competitive.
It's interesting that younger people think an end to blackouts means that you have to pay to watch the game. Yeah, as a kid we didn't get as many games, but they were on network TV, supported by ads. MLB is a very ad friendly sport with spots for ads between every inning. The reason we didn't see lots of games was because of limited broadcasting space, not that the games weren't already being recorded.
Jacob deGrom is the one of the 3 most talented, and skilled pitchers of all time. There is no doubt in my mind that without injuries he would be considered so by everyone.
MLB Network should not have blackouts for any team at all. They should have default coverage as the controlling entity. Then if a team wants to contract local networks as then they can.
The whole point is to continually show the games to attract more fans. If you block the Championship games, you only give that privileged view to the ones who have the extra money to pay for dish ($125 a month). Championship games should be on regular tv channels, not only to be listened on a radio station. If a team your cheering for looses the Championship, it becomes weird cause you'll only see it in the news
Heard the greatest take by a caller to 93.7FM in Pittsburgh. Caller said Nutting needs to stop worrying about The Skenes RC and spend $$$ on players instead of food stamps and welfare checks 😂😂😂
Paul Skenes is the best pitcher in the league if he does what he just did for 35 games 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ and he honestly probably isn’t even at his peak bc he’s still so young
Ohtani, i love judge bit judge aint stealing bags like ohtani, this isnt just a DH vs position player thing either. Ohtani is gonna be back to a two way player and he's still gonna be playing with this kind of ferocity and hustle. Im a tigers fan too so im not biased to one side or the other.
1) their numbers weren’t comparable 2) Judge is still playing with the ligament damage in his foot (likely why he went from being an average center fielder to one of the worst defensively)
ohtani is better than judge. judge has more power (barely) but isnt a gold glove in the outfield and ohtani is one of the leagues best pitchers. ohtani is the better player. best of our lifetimes. players from the past dont compare. players from a hundred years ago doesnt mean anything important now
Your opinion on TV revenue sharing is BS; small market teams that don't get the TV money should downgrade to a farm team. There's a reason why companies invest in big market teams, because of the amount of fan base interested in watching their team. If small markets are interested, fold that team if they can afford to buy big free agents.
Judge better than Ohtani. Let me know when Judge can actually do anything in the postseason. He's a joke and has NEVER performed well in the postseason.
Blackouts need to end asap. It's a crime that i live nearly 600 miles from Baltimore and can't watch my O's play.
About time for cancelling blackouts!!! That would help bring back baseball's popularity as more people would be able to watch without paying stupid extra money
And I can watch my Braves on MLB TV! There's hope!
@@zlpatriot11I agree! As an Iowan Braves fan, I hate having like 6 different teams blacked out even though Iowa doesn’t even have a team.
Putting games on Apple TV is essentially a blackout
Fr💀

Ohtani is one of the best players of all time and judge is one of the best players currently
ok but who had the better season in 2024 I think we know Ohtani also sucked in the playoffs
@ he wasn’t the best in the playoffs but still way better than judge
@@DeadRebounds so ohtani saving the dodgers from the padres is now sucking
@@DeadReboundsShohei made more history than Judge this season
@@Iesse13the only one who saved the dodgers from San Diego was Freddie freeman
Spectrum has the dodgers for the next 30 years 😂😭
NO MORE BLACKOUTS WOULD BE PEAK
As a Jays fan, when Shane McClanahan is on/and healthy, there isn’t many pitchers better than him. My dark horse for the AL cy young next season
Judge: Best Hitter
Ohtani: Best Player
Judge: best hitter
Ohtani: wasn’t a better hitter than judge but is still a better player… make that make sense
imagine thinking aaron judge is better than shohei ohtani 😂😂💀
Judge hits more homeruns than Ohtani, plus he actually plays defense.
@@homelessjesse9453home runs aren’t everything lil bro; how many IP does judge have in his career?
@@homelessjesse9453 ohtani can pitch and run. also 5 more home runs isn't saying much
He is
Judge is kinb
If there is anything that would fix Manfreds’s reputation, bring back Trevor Bauer. He did nothing wrong.
The D'Backs are blackout games in Utah and we don't even have a local affiliate that shows the games. So freaking stupid.
Ending blackouts would be game changing. It would make the fan experience even better along with the revenue share which would make the game even more competitive.
If I can get a pitcher with no health concerns at their peak I’m taking Kershaw

Fuzzy got banned from aaron judge. Thats why 😂
Prime Kershaw over anyone. Had one of the greatest peaks of all time and is in the top 5 greatest pitchers of all time
Judge is better than ohtani: That’s the verdict.
Jacob deGrom is the one of the 3 most talented, and skilled pitchers of all time. There is no doubt in my mind that without injuries he would be considered so by everyone.
All awards were predictable but only way Manfred can fix it is by hanging it up.. Ghost runner etc..
I live in Iowa. We get blacked out of 7 teams!!! We don't even have a team in our state!!! Blackouts are bullshit. They need to end
Insatiable greed. Blackouts, contracts, etc.. Never saw this on the horizon 50 years ago.
To answer the pitcher question, give me mad Max all day! Scherzer is an absolute beast at his prime
MLB Network should not have blackouts for any team at all. They should have default coverage as the controlling entity. Then if a team wants to contract local networks as then they can.
Love the vids
wheni saw u post it made my day :)
As a dodgers fan it’s so damn obvious to me it’s Kershaw one year one more ring and it’s ohtani all day judge doesn’t show up when it counts
just finished listening to the new kendrick and then get the new fuzzy life is good 🔥🔥🔥
Factsssssss

I knew the Braves would be able to fix Chris Sale, they always have a way with pitchers
Judge didn't steal 50 stolen bases and hit 50 home runs and make himself the only one in the 50/50 club just saying 🤷🤷🤷.....dodgers blue forever 💙💙💙
Me when I create arbitrary thresholds to justify why the player I like is better than another
To answer the question about pitchers I would choose Clayton Kershaw not just because I’m a dodgers fan but his peak years were insane
Yes no black out, we got to see all the superstar.
Can you make the best prospect on every team
3:20 absolutely taking either the big unit or degrom
Shohei is the league MVP
Does this mean I can watch "the best booth in baseball ", Mets, when the Mets play the Braves and I live in Braves territory?
Jackson Merrill was the best baseball player 2024 both leagues.
Heard the greatest take by a caller to 93.7FM in Pittsburgh. Caller said Nutting needs to stop worrying about The Skenes RC and spend $$$ on players instead of food stamps and welfare checks 😂😂😂
AppleTV is a blackout on everyone! It has to go.
Ohtani. Not even close
Prime Jake Arrieta from the cubs in 2015
Love the videos. I got my dad to start watching you 😂
SHOHEI
FINALLY NO MORE BALCKOUTS
If Soto signs with the Dodgers, I may just give up MLB. I dunno.
if a pitcher wins the triple crown, there is absolutely no reasomn why he shouldn't win the cy young unanimously. baseball writers are so stupid.
MLB black outs 5 five different teams in my area and I don’t even live in one of their markets.
Judge is the best. I agree with you
I think they should have a special MVP just for DH I think playing the field and batting is more special than just batting
Shohei moved up there with Dodgers 1962 Tommy Davis. Look it up.
We ❤ fuzzy
Paul Skenes is the best pitcher in the league if he does what he just did for 35 games 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ and he honestly probably isn’t even at his peak bc he’s still so young
Health not being a factor deGrom is the best pitcher of all time by a million miles. He's the GOAT... too bad he and Trout are never on the field.
Ohtani, i love judge bit judge aint stealing bags like ohtani, this isnt just a DH vs position player thing either. Ohtani is gonna be back to a two way player and he's still gonna be playing with this kind of ferocity and hustle. Im a tigers fan too so im not biased to one side or the other.
How does a person win a triple crown and not get all 1st place votes?
Shane Bieber without health concerns
In the regular season Shohei was the best player in MLB.
Except the Dodgers. They got a billion dollar tv contract
This is not a difficult decision, it Shohei Ohtani. He is going to become the best of all time
Stop blackouts right now.
Judge because he was a top notch defender as well.
Dodgers are signed to spectrum for life
I’m going with Sandy alcantara
Ohtani literally signed in the NL cuz he knew he wouldn’t beat Judge for MVP😂
MVP that doesn’t perform in the playoffs is useless to me. Not HoF material either. MVP should be changed to most valuable regular season player.
Ohtani brought so much more to the team then judge lol
Was Judge playing post injury? Othani was playing after having a season ending surgery and still had comparable numbers.
1) their numbers weren’t comparable
2) Judge is still playing with the ligament damage in his foot (likely why he went from being an average center fielder to one of the worst defensively)
As long as Manfred doesn't end blackouts only to cover the plan/idea of reducing a minors level
I’m taking Degrom
Ohtani bats leadoff so he will have less RBU's, and he still had 130 RBI's
Ohtani was only a DH this season, so Judge is the winner easily.
OHTANI 1 Definitely Facts 👊
And Judge got off to a slow start in 2024
Zack will hopefully get his due down the road
This is stupid fight, both best in their own right and on top of that judge and othani great human being also.. and yet some people worship Soto....
What about the piece of metal?
Judge 💯 💪💪💪
Ok bet I will ask Rick porcello bc he’s my coach
Lindor is the best FULL TIME PLAYER.
how many mvp’s will ohtani finish his career with?
Under 30 second club
👇
Shohei Judge I mean Aaron Ohtani
I think Canada will still be blacked out I hope it works though.
Too little too late!
ohtani is better than judge. judge has more power (barely) but isnt a gold glove in the outfield and ohtani is one of the leagues best pitchers. ohtani is the better player. best of our lifetimes. players from the past dont compare. players from a hundred years ago doesnt mean anything important now

Fuzzy do you want to play me in the show😊
Tarik all the way
Mike Trout is never going to win a world series.
when are you going to start gaming I like your gaming videos but I wish that you start gaming on your other channel again
Judge better than Ohtani. Let me know when Judge can actually do anything in the postseason. He's a joke and has NEVER performed well in the postseason.
Judge and Ohtani are not even good, can’t even win rookie of the year two years in a row.
Under a minute
Wtf bro. Small market teams want a handout. Sounds like Elon musk. Elon must would be a broke boy without government help
W manfred??
AJ
MANFART
wheeler robbed...
Ohtani shouldn't have won mvp, he didn't play, he only hit.
He stole 50+ bags and hit 50+ home runs. NO ONE else in major league history has done that.
Ohtani is one of the best players of all time
