Playoffs coming up next… and the biggest MLW announcement of all-time drops on Monday 😳

[@Sub2TeamPickle]

YESSSIRRR

[@tcircle43]

WOOOOOO

[@jandy608]

What is the announcement? Expansion maybe?

[@SH-os1ck]

Love you all!

Folks let's please help out this channel! Comment and share... I even comment throughout the video... No idea if it helps. But maybe... Haha

[@88tallyn]

Kracht striking out 3 times in the first inning and Preds still getting 4 runs is pretty impressive.

[@hosmeruberalles5650]

Well when the same guy bats 3 times in one inning it impossible not to score

[@88tallyn]

@@hosmeruberalles5650 but to have your leadoff strike out 3, every other guy has to get on every time, to have that happen, ending with a bomb, then you come up and strike out again...crazy

[@raezor82]

Yeah I would’ve loved to see the odds placed on that.

[@ryanburns3921]

@@PMurray2694 Nonsense. It's a little false to say a tomato is a vegetable. It would be very false to say it's a suspension bridge.

[@JJK657]

I think a good rule for 2023 would be: You can't use "ghost runners" if you have other players present at the game. It adds more movement and excitement to the game and would add some strategy to who is on the bench..... Also increases chances of tag outs, etc.

[@AFFECTIONATEAGE3330]

bump

[@rsn2012]

Agreed

[@ohiomoon1813]

They also need to increase the size of the field and move back the fence. So many tiny flyballs that the batter didn't get all of go over but they can still obviously hit massive HRs to where moving the fence back wouldn't be a big deal. I think this would make HRs less common but infield groundouts more common and extra base hits more common as well

[@waynemattson9143]

The rule I think they should add in 2023 should be is the 6 inning max for pitchers in a series includes extra innings, unless all available players have pitched their 6 innings. Then it resets.

I want 12 too but only problem is who would the captains be? I can only think of 2 maybe 3

[@chadgullett695]

Rumor has it Warda is still running around the bases from his 6th grade kick ball home run 😆

[@dariusswanson9898]

As I’m watching the video I get a notification from ESPN that the Preds take the first win and I got really confused lol. Apparently it was for the NHL season opener

[@rsn2012]

I'm still no closer to making a prediction for world series winner. All 6 teams have a chance. Some analysis on the year end stats: 1. The Red Baron won the pitching triple crown. Most wins, best ERA, and most Ks. He tied with Knorp with 76 but pitched 1.1 fewer innings so his K rate is better. (edit: Robles 1 more win) 2. Robles was in his own tier offensively. His pitching was good, not great. I think Davenport is as good or better of a pitcher than Robles going into the playoffs. 3. Just like in the majors, there are some guys who just can't keep up and need to be either cut or sent to the minors. The year end stats make that clear who they are. Nothing against them. Its a tough league. 4. Statistically, the Wildcats are the WS favorite going into the playoffs. 3 top tier hitters and 2 top tier pitchers. All killa, no filla.

Props to Landon on game 3. Looks like he has quite an arsenal. Will be fun to watch. Wouldn’t be surprised if another team might pick him up like gators

[@mlwstuff8204]

18:08 he really wanted that home field advantage 😂

[@jasongerber6972]

In case you’re wondering how I did this I weighted a bunch of hitting and pitching stats as well as an estimate of fielding value

[@airham777]

Gotta start handing out punishments for bat flips that go above a certain height and land in the field of play. Especially if they land outside the bunt line. Not the first time Kracht has nearly domed a pitcher.

[@TeslaDystopia]

The YooHoo arm sleeve is crazy. Drippiest league in sports.

[@nickhalfmann8397]

I feel for the Eagles having to play the D-Backs in the first round. But hey, they might be using a new rotation after today 👀

[@zparkyy1800]

The d backs are much better than 5-10.. it's just schema needs to play better. He has to be that number 2

Is it just me, or is Ryan Kracht getting bigger. Dude looks like he's put on a lot of muscle. #thick

[@zahrahayyat7865]

MLW is best part of my sunday

[@evanna578]

Dans a great pitcher but he really tips his pitches, especially his knuck drop. Can't wait until the playoffs, always look forward to mlw on fridays.

[@brendandouglas2402]

Kracht is a beast lets go preds

[@TheNewbsTube]

When the preds get the bats going like they did in the first 2 games they will be hard to beat, especially with Kracht on the mound. I feel like the playoffs this year is so deep in terms of talented teams that even the 3 seeds could win it all and people wouldn't be surprised.

[@tylermanley8046]

Dan been tipping pitches for 2 years and someone finally making him pay lol

[@wafflman64]

This looks so much fun to do

[@jynx_xdloljk3503]

This was posted an hour early, MY SCHEDULE!!

[@Dialectic42]

Dan tips his pitches on the drop ball pretty hard core and he got punished on that grand slam. The wind up for the drop ball is completely different from his other pitches. Also, Landon’s stuff is straight up nasty. Adding Landon to Dallas and Dan gives the Eagles an amazing pitching rotation.

[@rsn2012]

Dan tips that Knuck Drop so bad. I can see it coming every time. And yes, they've finally figured Dallas out and it isn't total domination any more. Landon has a live arm. Good 3rd option.

[@PJErvin]

Dallas Allen strikes out Kracht three times in one inning. Don’t know if I’ve ever seen that.

[@LetsGoPirates22]

okay I know warda prolly isn’t the slugger of the preds in numbers but man he constantly works the count or does what needs to happen! I think dan was throwing off his steeze with them sunglasses straps 😂

[@Gnomad29]

That last game was a great win for the eagles even though losing the series. Giving the eagles a chance to see Landon showcase his talent on the mound and I felt he did just that. Looking good to have another arm going into the postseason. Diversify pitching staff could be a key element for the eagles this postseason. But who knows they may just get Knorped!

[@fwlwiffleball5975]

THANK YOU SO MUCH PREDS!!!

[@zachkeene212]

Daniel has got to fix his deliveries u can tell what he's throwing and when and it makes his knuckle drop less effective

As a mallards fan we thank you predators!!!!

[@aldoparziale5669]

God I can't wait for the Playoffs, you could just feel it all season it's going to be the best one yet with every team in it having an honest chance to win it all

[@ryanjohnston9313]

So true, every team in the playoffs is close record wise except the d backs, and well… we know you can’t count them out

[@nightmeer0820]

Wonder if Daniel knows how bad he tips his pitches. Incredibly easy to tell whether he is throwing a breaking ball or fastball. No way he can continue pitching for the eagles in the post season if any team catches onto it.

[@BrettMichaelRocker]

Despite losing game 3, this series win should help the Preds carry some solid momentum into the postseason. Mallards vs Preds in the World Series will be what I’m rooting for.

[@nightshade99]

If the thrown ball went out-of-bounds after Warda steps off second base, he is awarded home base. 6:30 In the freeze-frame, it looks like Warda was ON second as the ball disappeared under the fence, so Warda advances to third. Good call!

[@caldoyle4297]

You guys should do a top ten plays this year

[@rsn2012]

They do it every year.
