Am I a special kind of hormonal, or is Nolan McLean—King of the Mets Rotation™️—doing post-masterclass press while wearing a Jonah Tong shirt making everyone else feel things? I love our baby pitchers so much. 😭🧡💙 #Mets #LGM

Nolan McLean speaking to the press after today’s game at Citi. He is wearing a Jonah Tong branded shirt that says “Canadian Cannon.”

A shirt with a south park canadian style jonah tong on the front, finishing his pitching motion. it says “The Canadian Canon Jonah Tong” in a circle surrounding him.

Sara @sportsandsuffering.bsky.social · 11h

Can we also get scouting departments that aren’t oops all white guys? @royals.com

you can always count on me to start the “players are workers” rah rah labor fight 😅

And while we’re at it, teams should be required to provide livable wages, healthcare, and paid parental leave for all stadium and front office staff as well as adhering to a salary FLOOR to qualify to receive revenue sharing.

It’s fine—I’ll start that discourse.

Players are workers. Owners are billionaires. No to a salary cap forever.

bobo tucci @no-flashlight.bsky.social · 11h

Not to start any discourse but it’s weird that no one brings this up when the Brewers pretend they’re just a bunch of poors. Too many small market teams coast on ticket sales and revenue sharing from teams like the Dodgers without giving a shit about the quality of the product on the field

Under the new collective bargaining agreement
(CBA) negotiated in 2022, each MLB team pools 48 per cent of local revenues with the total amount split equally between all 30 teams.
This results in each team taking in 3.3 per cent of the total-an estimated $110 million USD, if not more. Teams also receive a share of
national revenues, totalling around $90 million
USD per team.

I'm not going to claim that Yoshinobu Yamamoto's performance tonight was more impressive than, like, the Don Larsen perfect game, but contextually pitching a complete game in the postseason in 2025 is absolutely one of the... 5 or 10 most remarkable postseason pitching performances ever.
