 Hi everyone, Joe for jasmine'scasebreaks.com with a full case break of 2023 Bowman's best baseball picker team three Brand-new release just dropped today big. Thanks to this group for making it happen Here on the 17th on a Wednesday picker team three if you have up three next year And that means one those teams that update break Adam. You've got official last Bob Mojo with my Dodgers and there's everybody else Thanks, everybody. Ethan. I talking a little bit about the salary cap in baseball. Does that would that actually help? salary cap wouldn't Wouldn't help the A's Ethan's arguing that well less money for the big teams less money for the big teams would get To get big players would limit other teams that can afford big names allowing for team like the A's get cheaper deals For big names because no one else can I think I get what you're saying, Ethan I think in a perfect world. I think that would be the case but That implies that teams like the A's were interest are interested in spending money in the first place I think it's divided up into to owners that are willing to spend and owners that are cheap not willing to spend I think in a salary cap market. I think that would that would tell them Hey since the big teams are limited. I could be even more cheap And I think the teams like the like the A's. I don't think they're actually interested in In Scoot this over a little bit. I don't think they're actually interested in in improving the roster You're also suggesting that every team is interested in the team But many owners are not interested in Interested in decent guys on that could help a roster improve A's they're gonna move to Vegas and they're gonna double the money They're gonna double the money the value of their team Here's what I see in the NFL Ethan Ethan saying hey, that's true, but you don't see any stacked teams the NFL With the salary cap and if a team has a lot of good players big names have to take pay cuts to make that happen, correct And you know what else happens? That means that means any good player you develop Ends up going elsewhere You can't retain those players Because they price themselves out of that your team so a team that player that you drafted and you trained and you home grew You're like ah now. I can't keep another too good So I got now I got a shade that player away Let someone else take that team take that player that was a fan favorite and now you hurt the fans by trading away a Popular player that you couldn't that you couldn't afford because of all the other positions And because you're busy spending a quarter of your salary Cap if not more on the quarterback So now you're all you almost feel like a college basketball team in the one and done era where you were where a team has No identity because no player stays on a team for more than five years No team identity except for me with a quarterback who gets signed to the big deal There's Otani speaking of which this is what kind of sparked this whole debate here Salary cap does that actually help baseball I Know sometimes you kind of want to see a stack team you want to have like a team that can stay together for a good period of time create a generation of Of Raiders for Packers imagine Devonte Adams if they could pay Devonte Adams and Aaron Rodgers Keep him happy have that team together. That'd be a lot of fun to watch. There's Nukua Puka Grego Short soft for the Phillies. That's gonna be for Gary. There's Matt McLean astral projections And there's Dylan head 87 out of 151 of the big Padres prospects here He's been saying right, but I meant by big names to spread the league Making Harvard the same teams make the playoffs every year give all teams a decent shot Yeah, I suppose so so I give so Spread Otani Freeman Mookie bets out between different teams To make those teams more interesting I Feel like a lot of people in the NFL will complain about how there's too much parody. So it just creates a bigger Middle-class of teams and so it's just kind of in a way. There's really No team creating dynasties or There's Mack Hovarth Although it's harder to build a NFL roster, but that's for the Oreos. That's for EA It's Gunnar Henderson But I think I think it would be fans having the teams have a decent underneath class. They do The expanded playoffs I think is one of the most generous in professional sports. So now with that incentive That should incentivize teams to spend money, right? But the cheap owners will stay cheap and they even then They won't do it. They won't spend money. Why aren't the Orioles spending money? There's Brock Jones Tampa Bay Rays that'll be for Michael Spencer Jones to 150. I think there should be a salary floor There's an Adley Rushman green mini diamonds 99 and if you can't if you're If you can't afford the salary floor sell the team What happened with the A's is that they have a cheap owner. I think that's what it is That's all it is You can what's wrong with the MLB is that they allow John Fisher to retain ownership of that team and Refuse to spend on that team and then claim that oh Fans don't want to come and see Oakland baseball We'll do an autograph and hit recap at the end of this Salary cap or not John Fisher is not spending money on that team Even with the opportunity to get better players for cheaper because of the salary cap All right spreading talent around I I believe that he would never spend that money anyway No matter what the average payroll or whatever will be. I think you'll always be in the lowest percentile of spending money Yeah Well, you know what he's doing gets what he owns the building The A's will only play in that stadium Ethan 82 times a year 81 times a year Not the playoffs That's only 81 days out of a 365 day Calendar right guess what else that stadium is gonna do Ethan it's gonna have it's gonna have a WrestleMania it's gonna have concerts. It's gonna have other It's gonna have what else is it gonna have? It's gonna have the rodeo It's gonna have conferences. It's gonna have all sorts of other things happening motocross could be there They're gonna fill up, you know, they're gonna fill up that stadium with events The rest of the year and guess where that money is gonna go into John Fisher's pockets So 81 divided by 365 That's 22% of the year is gonna be for Oakland A's home games You know the other 78% Is gonna be all other revenue-building things that are non-A's related but stadium related No wonder he's so excited to build his own stadium to fill with other events where he can make money That he will not put into the A's Nice Jackson holiday to 199 Baltimore Orioles EA and Daniel Guarte brewers You don't get why Oakland fan showed up when they found out they were moving just to protest it It wouldn't show up during the rest of the year. Well, because then they're putting money into the pockets of a greedy and cheap owner Jimmy has the brewers. They'll get that one. They have to have events in Oakland too, right? new Have you seen the Oakland Coliseum? No one's booking concerts there No one's booking extra events there and that stadium is county owned not owner owned So the ownership would not get any money out of whatever the stadium does in non A's games There's camcaller Autographs it's gonna be for Gary the Reds. I mean the Oakland Coliseum was was is Easily regarded as the worst stadium in professional sports over the last 10-15 years Here's a mini diamonds Colin Hawk Davis Martin There's Roman Anthony Now, here's the here's the here's the crappy part. He does have the money for a stadium. Why is he not? building that in Oakland Because he knows it that if he moves that say if he moves to Vegas that his that the value of his team probably doubles almost instantly New stadium would be his Pockets more money Skaber Gonzalez to 150 Seattle, that's for Ryan Yeah, Raiders play Raiders played there since like the Since the beginning maybe And here's Axel Sanchez 16 out of 150 nice Seattle, that's gonna be for Ryan Yeah, Raiders owner Mark Davis hates John Fisher With the with the passion of a thousand sons the burning passion of a thousand sons John Fisher Continually made it impossible Because they both leased the stadium together John Fisher made it impossible for for the Oakland Raiders For them to build a stadium together Yeah, and now they'll be neighbors Mark Davis is livid There's had there has been some unflattering quotes that he's made already I mean he pretty much told the story. He was just like he's feel like oh, what do you think about time? He's like, you know what that guy effed Oakland and their fans He's like, I never wanted to leave Oakland. I want to build a new stadium in Oakland I want to get out of the lease and start the process of building a stadium and arena Or maybe even co-build that with Oakland because we needed their help And all they did and I think the a's at that time had had Had like the deciding factor in the lease or something like that and he said that they Decided to continue that lease Railroaded the Raiders into to any attempts to make a new stadium or partner with making a new stadium giving them no options Or much fewer, you know, not very good options and then that that precipitated the move Meanwhile, John Fisher and the a's You know, I don't know they made a lot of It's gonna be interesting having them in the same town, that's for sure in Vegas But it'll be funny that they're gonna be neighbors. Yeah, it's a sad story. I mean, I know No, Oakland Oakland County is not exactly a place that's flush with cash, but You know, there's there's a lot of passionate sports fans out there. It's a shame that they're gonna get They're gonna lose. I mean even the Warriors moved across the Bay Here's Junior Caminero Tampa Bay Rays Michael Golder Right. Yeah, I think that's gonna be an interesting battle. There's a manual Bonilla now when the new You know when the new a stadium is there what kind of events because right thing about the Raiders stadium They're only hosting eight nine home games a year and what do they do the rest of the time? I Think I think nice Paul Skeens here for the Pirates John with Pittsburgh. I think they'll be You know, obviously the stadium sizes are gonna be really different. So they probably won't be competing for the same events There's Bryce Eldridge Because I think that a stadium is supposed to be a lot smaller 48 out of 99 on Bryce Eldridge for the Giants. That's gonna be for Darren Think big part of them. No, I don't think so. I don't think it was a f you specifically to mark Davis Don Fisher moving to Vegas. At least I don't think so It seems more like hey Here's it. Here's an opportunity for me to go to a new market build my own stadium bright shiny new new stadium in Vegas You know go to maybe moods more desirable part of the world for For rich people, you know what I mean Here's Davis and Gutierrez for the Mets. I think just Fisher saw an opportunity for a place where I hey I can build a stadium. I'm in a fun emerging market Here's orange Taj Bradley 20 out of 25 I'm gonna double the value of my team Same with the Chargers thing by the Chargers They doubled their value there. It's probably already a billion dollar franchise When they were in San Diego I Spencer Jones for the Yankees. It's gonna go to Tristin But I think Think Spanos constantly made it difficult to build a stadium outside of outside of San Diego You know a lot of people will point to oh, they did a vote They did a vote to see if they wanted to keep the Chargers the people didn't want them But I think that vote was only extended to the city limits of San Diego proper Not San Diego County, which I think would have been completely different Outside of Vegas is there another kid as a minor and major league baseball team in it? No Maybe well there the Dodgers A rookie ball team I Think the Dodgers rookie ball team is in Rancho Cucamonga, which is only about no traffic only about 45 minutes from from Dodger Stadium That that's a rookie ball team or single-aid team or something like that single-aid team I think I think Great Lakes is the rookie ball team, but I think Rancho Cucamong is a single-aid team and I think where the aviators play versus where the A's are gonna play Vegas's population wise is not as big as LA obviously But the city is pretty widespread probably would take about 40 minutes to get from that part of town north think northeast Northwest part of town to where they're building the A stadium in the southeast part of town so across town That's about 45 minutes probably the same But I think the aviators are a triple-aid team, right? I think there are there are teams That have other minor league teams within Right exactly exactly Ethan. So yeah, so there are teams that have minor their minor league teams pretty close I think it often makes sense sometimes you'll have major leagueers do a quick rehab start on like a on their single-aid team You know, and it's good to have them close by Do I think they'll change the logo much I doubt it everyone thought the Raiders were gonna change the name and logo, but the A's are a team that has so much history Over a hundred years of history probably right so to change it now I think would be Would would kind of suck I think Or if they do change the name, I hope that I Hope that they let Oakland retain the athletics name and logo and all that but I doubt it. I feel like I feel like they 88 out of 99 here's Masahoshi But I don't think Veg veg A's you want them to go with veg A's I don't think that would be a very good name. I think they'll do stuff like that like marketing They'll kind of incorporate sort of A's puns in there, but but I think for the most part they'll probably If they get if they have like a Nike City Connect Jersey or something like that Maybe that will be more related to the to Vegas itself But I think their main their main uniform I doubt will change Yeah, much further away. I mean not that much further away, but far far enough away. It's a crosstown Here's a manual of Bonilla It's Toronto Evan. How was I supposed to say it Toronto Toronto with this one vague A's Vague A's I don't know if that rolls off the tongue nicely. I'm sure there will be a lot of Teenagers who think that's gonna be awfully funny. There's Phelene Celestine to 250 and a Caden Wallace for the Royals. It's gonna be for Gary There's Phelene Celestine is supposed to be one of the Mariners big prospects coming up the ranks Ryan the m's Junior Cameron era mini diamonds to 299 and There's Dean Jorge For the Rockies that'll be for Gary won that team in the filler after this break Ethan anyone else who's curious Think we should have a little bit of time close to the top of the hour, but nice Dalton rushing One of the big died one of the many Dodgers catcher prospects. They seem to be collecting over the years And so it'll be for Adam and the Dodgers very nice I think one of the top prospects in the organization and One of the top pitching or top catcher prospects in all of baseball They should just say you know who already has a Vegas aces the WNBA team the world champion WNBA Team are your Vegas aces Which is owned by Mark Davis But yeah, I'd be I'd be Not ashamed WNBA team got it first their world champs And the world champs something they can't haven't been able to claim for a long time It's really smart for them to for the WNBA team to To get that name wrapped up Um, I I don't think they'll change if it was any other team You know without the kind of history that the A's have I Think they changed their there. I mean maybe they will I don't know it doesn't seem like there's any rumblings of that though I mean the Minneapolis Lakers Went to Los Angeles kept the name the Lakers even though not very many lakes in Los Angeles or some Not thousands of lakes. All right next the soccer team. Did Jose Bautista bring a soccer team? I don't think I don't think it's an it's a it's a major league soccer team though But I'm sure that's not too far away whenever MLS expands There's say a Suzuki to 199 soccer team they'll probably play in a They're probably play in an at a legion where the Raiders play Because you know V now plays there Unless they play where the UNLV used to play the football team. Oh, by the way, really nice Ethan solace Greg dash Padres Here's a say a Suzuki for the Cubs Dennis To 199 it's kind of crazy to think that oh nice masatake Yoshida masterpieces autograph That's for Todd and the Boston Red Sox It's strong season last year it's Michael Harris to 250 and he reveals a Nicao Puka Grego Phillies Gary Yeah, that you she is really nice But it's kind of crazy to think that Vegas is gonna have Vegas will eventually have NBA. I think the next The next time and Adams. I want to say Adam Silver has All but said that we are gonna expand at some point, right and LeBron James It says he wants to be part of the ownership group if not the owner of the next expansion franchise There's Davidson de la sound I think you should just buy the buy the cows There's a nice de la Santos going to Michael and the Diamondbacks Yeah, I think the NBA will expand. I think they're at 30 teams right now. I think they want to get to 32 I Think I feel like that's a nice sweet spot for For American professional sports 32. That's what the NFL has. I know base major league baseball wants to get to 32 Hockey's already got to 32 Right with the Golden Knights and the Seattle Kraken that gets them to 32 More teams mean more money Ethan for the league more teams mean more money More revenue to be made overall more More games to put on TV. I feel like the general consensus has been Seattle will get the Super Sonics back and then the Vegas will have a team and then they'll move Memphis and Minnesota over to the east Because I think they're considered they're still in the West right now both of those Yeah, I know someone who was saying this I think Buffalo Braves is a sick logo I want to say that I have a we have a friend I think I think Think Gilo who is our who is our resident Kansas City fan and supporter He's like, hey, why is it Kansas City? You got baseball. We got football. We don't have a where's our basketball team? You know the Kansas City Kings used to be out there ABA days or something like that. So But yeah, I'm not sure if basketball is gonna get back to Buffalo anytime soon. I think they've been saying Seattle and Vegas Move Memphis and Minnesota to the east and then redo the divisions and then go from there Baseball now that now that the A's are going to Vegas and now that the Tampa Bay rays have their stadium situation sorted out allegedly which I'm personally not a fan of a Fan of where they're reloc or where they're building their new stadium They're kind of staying in the same area, which is kind of difficult to get to but I guess it's part of a big long-term Redevelopment plan, but now that those two stadiums Situations are figured out and some of you may have seen that Amazon has bailed out the diamond sports network So that might actually help with two things with with some of those markets Getting Yeah, Amazon will invest in diamond sports as part of its bankruptcy Restructure agreements into there's like a number of teams 11 baseball team 15 basketball teams 11 HL teams They have their ballet sports networks interrupted because of the bankruptcy that that media company has been going through This includes like, you know teams like the Rangers the Royals the Padres, you know diamond backs, etc, etc, etc So I think they're gonna save those media rights there Which may read I mean, which may finalize the remaining Freedons left there, but once all once that was squared away the two stadium situations and TV stuff once that gets squared away Here's Machado to 75 Baseball is gonna look to get to 32 teams. Here's Fraley and Cronos you own for Boston. That's for Todd Now the big question is where those two expansion teams gonna go. I don't have a clear picture of that just from all the reading and research and listening that I've done over the Over the years That seems to be wide open Really Ethan saying there's some rumors here in the past coming is that we're selling the Sabres in Buffalo I'm trying to get a basketball team because her owner pays no attention to the Sabres Sabres make horrible revenue. What's the value of the Sabres? I wonder Here's Amborius Tavares and Boba Shet back there Here's the thing the values of those teams are still so great that the owners really don't have to make revenue in order to To keep the valuation of the team although hockey might be different That goes to the Braves Joey Pruitt and this is a nice Corbin Carroll shell act You can kind of see the word shell act in the background there Some of these can be autographed to this is a fun little insert That's gonna go to Michael and the Diamondbacks You know Ethan though if if like if Seattle didn't exist and if the Vegas market wasn't so Attractive right now first for sports teams and just the ease of travel into Las Vegas and nice Corbin Carroll mini diamonds and Dalton rushing another one another Dalton rushing for Adam the Dodgeville Dodger Joe mojo But unfortunately, I don't know if a basketball team is going back there Now if Seattle already had a team and if if Vegas wasn't a hyped up market, I could see markets like You know I could see markets like That used to have an ABA team You know get a basketball team An NBA team and that would be pretty interesting Another Corbin Carroll mini diamonds for Michael nice all those out up. I guess hockey is a little different. I Don't think they carry as much Kind of crazy value as and here's a brailing to Vera Future team at a Gunner Henderson someday EA without me. I don't know maybe Maybe teams maybe hockey teams franchise are a little bit different, but I guess they could be sold Does that mean a basketball team will get back there? That'd be kind of kind of cool But bring back the Boston Braves logo and all that would you be really awesome? Be cool to see it happen Vase will eventually get a major league soccer team too. Are they on the list? so I think Austin go Charlotte got a Got a major league soccer team. I think Think St. Louis is supposed to have a soccer team No, I think they had I think they made their debut this year in 2023 as an expansion team San Diego is gonna have a soccer team in 2025 and That's it for now current expansion can is So they're at 30 teams out right however after the San Diego's awarded the 30th team in May The Commissioner said I don't think sitting here today that we have any plan in the year for you to go beyond 30 teams Okay, so there looks like they're gonna sit at 30 for a little bit But I think Vegas and Phoenix according to this Wikipedia article Is is stated as being potential? Potential expansion teams Buffalo Ethan would would Buffalo take to soccer there are cities where you least expect it has to have taken to soccer pretty well There'd be a natural rivalry maybe with the Toronto and Montreal teams Be kind of cool if it was just like you know If it was like Buffalo FC and you lose you use all of the old a minor league soccer team What I mean this 80 much be indoors I Think the MLCC is during the summer anyway But if there could be like a Dome stadium or something like that that could work in England They play soccer in this no There's Mike both Going to the Brewers that'll be for Jimmy be kind of cool to see a major league soccer team in Buffalo Call it Buffalo FC. Maybe take over the name of the minor league team and then use all like kind of use Braves a Old Buffalo Braves ABA logo and coloring which would be kind of awesome 61 as 75 Juan a burrito for Cleveland. That's for Gary in the Guardians Cleveland This is for you. They're we still there were you scheduling soccer games because of the rain Gotta watch English soccer there. They're they're playing rain sleet snow Little little summer rain and they're rescheduling games. Here's Paul Skeens shall act for John and the Pirates It's gonna Henderson. Oh nice 124 out of 250 shall act on card auto drew Jones That's for Michael and the Diamondbacks one of their up-and-coming prospects It's a nice looking card there Save that for a little social media picture time here Ziegel Tovar and Daniel Montero Padres Greg Nice Ziegel Tovar 36 out of 50 for the Rocks. That's gonna be for Gary All right final box coming up Thanks everybody I don't think we have any other orders coming up and keeping an eye on orders. That's why I've been kind of Kind of stretching this break out a little bit because I think I've got time knowing nothing's selling out You can take our time with this break and we can have some nice conversation in the chat as well So I think it's yeah, I mean I feel like if you want to establish You know especially since I mean in the summertime. What are you doing? There's no baseball in Buffalo You have to go all the way to Montreal, Toronto Drive down to New York for baseball. That makes it kind of tough You know a major league soccer team to have a professional summer league team a soccer team I think would be pretty cool. They could play in the bills new stadium Are we excited about the bills stadium? Yeah, I guess we'll have to unless you know unless people Want to sell out that absolute right now. I'll do it even though we're over 11 past 11 right now on the west coast I'm down to do it because I already have the case out here anyway Yeah, best bet's from Buffalo to go to a baseball in Toronto Pittsburgh or Cleveland Yeah, I think the big question now is like who's gonna We're gonna be the expansion team the new bill seems gonna be wild. I'll bet you could put an MLS team in there the office in the Summer That's right, Eric East Coast three hours ahead 11 o'clock West Coast 2am East Coast That is how time works. I Think I want to say because someone have to may have to fact check me on this But I want to say that there is a time zone that doesn't go by the hour. That's like there's like half hour Here's Welben, Francisca Cleveland, this is for you Gary with that one Yeah, I was hoping so too. Listen, if there's a if we've seen it happen before if there's a wild late night rally where that Absolute two box break sells out You know, I've seen it happen I've seen it happen where someone's like effort. I just bought 24 spots in a break Here's Tommy Troy for the dime backs 1999 Prince Michael with that one So if you want to do that I'll do it There's a Fraley and Karras he owned for Todd in the Red Sox, maybe someone's was thinking Joe's probably gonna go to bed or he's gonna call it because it's already past 11 and He's not gonna want to do another break. I will if it's absolute I all other breaks will be tomorrow, but if it's at that two box break of absolute I'll do it. Jasper's case breaks.com. There's a ton of spots left So I'm not gonna hold my breath for it, but if you want to do it, I'll do it So I'll put that out there if you dig deep if we've got a few people that knocks out 25 spots together and again I've seen it happen before so I know it can happen I'll do the break.
