#6 Diamondbacks
#5 Rangers
#4 Phillies
The Astros have a clear path to the 2023 Piece of Metal.
The Astros and Rangers could easily have been flipped, since that division wasnt decided until the final day.

Keep the Roughnecks in Houston, move the Gamblers to Las Vegas, trash the Vipers
There's nowhere to play in Vegas. Cashman sucked, Allegiant is a nonstarter, and Sam Boyd cannot host football due to UNLV's deal with the Raiders at Allegiant.

South Florida is bringing out the retro logo for homecoming this week! I’d prefer green pants too, but the helmet is perfect.

This is what Atlanta does. The Dream used to play at FKA Philips Arena, and then at Georgia Tech's McCamish Pavilion, and now they play at the Gateway Center Arena where the College Park Skyhawks also play. It's only a 3,500-seat venue for basketball, so I imagine they get a decent crowd for home games.
I think Washington shares with the G League team as well.

Good. We could always use more vibrant colors in the NHL. Black, tan, and orange is such a boring color scheme.
Orange isnt vibrant?

At some point, you have to beat the other good teams. Re-seeding is just another thing to grouse about, IMO.
I would much rather see the potential matchup between the two best teams be held until the conference/league finals, to earn a chance for the finals.

Why doesn't MLB reseed?
Like, shouldn't it be Dodgers/Phillies and Braves/DBacks?
I feel like the MLB will eventually reseed after the Wild Card round sometime. It just makes more sense.

So I'm guessing Minnesota gets moved to the East? (Like, perhaps, the Timberwolves should)
Dallas is closer to Phoenix and other West teams than the Lynx are, who are closer to Chicago, Indiana, etc.
At least for now that would make sense. If Portland also joins, Dallas could move East too

I have read that the issue with Mexico City is that the elevation is much higher than Denver and that the players might prefer Monterrey over Mexico City.
I also have seen Monterrey as the likely candidate if the time comes.

Golden State for 2025, Portland finalizing details and likely to be soon as well.

Still here, and still wondering.

Selfishly, I'd like to see what a navy blue version of this jersey would look like as an alternate. (not mesh)

I wonder if moving Army Navy to Week Zero and making it a conference game would work...

Another red and blue team. Unbelievable.
As others has said, it will probably be orange and black. This was the Firebirds look in the 90s
Even if it was red and blue, the Firebirds brand belongs in the AFL.

Per local Tampa Bay sports radio, Rays are wearing the throwbacks today against Texas.
Edit: The Rays have confirmed this officially as well

Man, if I wasn’t already sick of the Chiefs before, I sure am now with all of this Taylor Swift stuff. That’s legit the very last thing I want my football coverage inundated with. It’s straight up creepy to me that people care so much about this.
She goes on the international leg of her tour the beginning of November, so maybe another month of possible seeing her at Chiefs games.

The American is looking to bring in Army to the fold. The trick here is that Army-Navy would remain in it's regular slot, but the AAC championship would be played the week before. So, in theory, Army and Navy could play each other for a championship before playing each other for the Commander-In-Chief Trophy.
The thought is that the traditional Army Navy game would be a nonconference matchup. I think the American would not schedule Army and Navy during the regular season, but like you said there's a chance Army Navy could play in the conference championship the week prior.

South Florida going with an interesting choice for on the road against Navy (who I assume will have gold helmet and pants of their own)

Disagree. I think Miami nailed their new logo. (Do we call it the Cyberdolphin?)
I like it too, just pair the existing helmet with some modern retro uniforms that evoke the throwbacks and you have a winner.
I've also heard it called 'Cruise Ship logo" and "Toothpaste dolphin"

Clemson may have found a way out, which means FSU may not be far behind.

I can’t speak for the rest of the teams with increases, but the Rays did offer a select amount of $10 tickets (pre tax/fees) for all games. That may have assisted in the increase in attendance

Well, it would be nice to have a source on your claims and confidence that this kind of growth is sustainable.
2022 = https://www.espn.com/mlb/attendance/_/year/2022
2023 = https://www.espn.com/mlb/attendance
I know some teams aren't done with their home schedule so numbers will be more accurate year over year in a week, but this should be a decent baseline. The top of the total attendance column doesn't change much.
For those who have completed their season.
- San Diego broke 3 million for 2023 and was just under 3 million in 2022.
- Cincinnati broke 2 million in 2023, with a big increase of 642,540 total, just over 7900 per game
- Tampa Bay had an overall total increase of 312,174, just over 3800 more per game.
- Miami was up 255,332, just over 3100 more per game.
- Pittsburgh was up 308,795, approx 3800 more per game.
- Texas was up 521,681, over 6400 more per game.
- Cubs up 158,369, over 1900 per game.
- Houston up 363,349, almost 4500 per game.
There were some drops so far
- Washington dropped by just under 2000 a game or 160,569 total.
- Dodgers down 24,329, about 300 per game.

Phillies called a guy up that wasn't even on their 40-man. He's making his major-league debut right now on September 24th, and is likely to be put on the playoff roster. That's insane. I didn't even know that was legal.
Guy played at 5 levels of minor-league baseball this year (A, high A,, AA, AAA - his only year of MiLB), and starts off his major-league career with 6 straight sliders.
Had never even heard of this guy (Orion Kerkering) until the other day, but he's surpassed all of their other top prospects in less than a year. 1-2-3 inning for his debut.
Kerkering played college ball at South Florida and I also saw him in Clearwater. He's good.
As for calling up guys, Rays called up Shane McClanahan for his MLB debut in the 2020 ALDS.

The Tampa Bay @ Buffalo game last night was pretty sparse too. The announced attendance was 12598.
