Not a single team won more than 100 games this year! Even with the White Sox in the mix handing out wins to anyone who asked.

IIRC MLB Gameday app allows you to listen to live games through their app. It's a subscription service though. The good news is that since you're out of market you shouldn't have to deal with blackouts.

Looks like everything went well! We've migrated to object storage!
I'll be doing some server maintenance today around 11 AM EST. You will be unable to upload images to fanaticus until the maintenance is finished. For the technical, I'll be (finally) migrating the pict-rs data to object storage. I was lazy last fall and simply upgraded the server size (and therefore the volume size) instead of doing the proper thing and migrating. This is bad for two reasons: 1. It's not scalable -- volume storage is limited and requires regular updates to increase the size of the volume. Object storage automatically scales. You pay for what you use and that's it 2. Our server is way beefier than it needs to be, soley so our volume size can be large enough to store all our images. That means I pay more for server power we just don't need. I knew this was an issue when I kicked the can down the road last fall but my life got busy and I needed to just buy myself some time. I'll be following these docs: - https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/#user-content-filesystem-to-object-storage-migration I'm not sure how long the migration will take, I'm guessing a long time considering how large the volume is. With any luck, we'll be back up and running within the hour.

Unless you'd like to run the game bot yourself (definitely encouraged), I can re-enable it for you.
I mentioned during spring training that I would be turning them back on by demand only in order to cut down on perceived spam (perceived by other instance admins).

100% Ippei's his best friend! That's how you know Ippei's a real one. Only a best friend would fall on his sword like that
The Los Angeles Dodgers fire Ippei Mizuhara, Shohei Ohtani's long-time interpreter. Mizuhara was accused by Ohtani's attorneys of engaging in a “massive theft” of Ohtani's funds to place bets with an illegal bookmaker, according to the LA Times.

Best case scenario as a Yankees fan. Those Astros rumors were making me nervous. I didn't want the Yankees to sign him but I sure as hell didn't want the Astros to land him either.

Pre-season stats matter very little for pitchers but I agree, the rotation looks bleak without Cole.
Hey all, Baseball season is almost upon us! For those of you who were around last year, you'll recall that [@cerevant@fanaticus.social](https://fanaticus.social/u/cerevant) and I ported over the redball baseball bot to Lemmy and subsequently created a bot for each team. While that was a lot of fun to work on, not many people interacted in the gameday threads. This year, I am considering scaling back the game bots to an on-demand basis (although you're certainly welcome to create your own!). For those communities that want a baseball bot for your team, let me know in this post and I'll set it up. If you want to run your own and want some help with that, I can help you with that too. Let me know your thoughts! I am open to suggestions. If you found your home team's community is without a mod, let me know and I'll turn over the keys. I'm really excited for this year's season and am hoping we get a lot more participation and posting from all you lurkers! Big shout out to [@runwaylights@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/runwaylights) for keeping us going through the offseason! Offseason MVP right there!
Hi all, it was brought to my attention that Lemmy.World is not federating with Fanaticus as of about a week ago. I did a little digging and found that we were recently added to Lemmy.World's blocklist. I've reached out to the admins on multiple channels and am hoping to resolve this soon. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Check out the new features [here](https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue).
Fanaticus will be upgrading to 0.19.0 at 1:30 EST. According to the release post, this will likely take 30 minutes. Check out the new features [here](https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue).
... contingent on Glasnow signing an extension with L.A., which is expected, sources tell ESPN.
Just catching up on off-season news here. > The New York Yankees today announced that they have acquired three-time All-Star and four-time Silver Slugger Award winner OF Juan Soto and two-time Gold Glove winner OF Trent Grisham from the San Diego Padres in exchange for RHP Michael King, C Kyle Higashioka, RHP Jhony Brito, RHP Randy Vásquez and RHP Drew Thorpe.
How does it feel?
