Rooting Angles

[Edgy MD]

Tampa Bay Has

• Steven Matz 🧡🧡 out of 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 
• Freddy Peralta 🧡
• Cedric Mullins 🧡

Milwaukee Has

• Gary Sanchez 𑣲 (half a heart)
• Daniel Vogelbach (coach) 🧡
• Big Jim Henderson (coach) 𑣲 

Not a lot of emotional connection there, but TB out-hearts Milwaukee, four hearts to two.

Milwaukee is the NL team, but only because of a stupid flex by Bud Selig trying to prove he can make teams switch leagues.

Tampa, as a franchise, has pretty much undisputably the least character of any MLB organization — despite a lot of success — and is near the bottom even if you measure them against all the major team sports, and that's due in large part to Tampa/St. Pete not really projecting much of a civic character.  I'm sure people love it there, and probably for good reason, but to the rest of America, they kind of just give the impression that it's just a place where people live.

I think I'm going Milwookie.

I had trouble rooting for Milwaukee even against the Dodgers. It feels comfortable to be rooting against them now. Rays Up! (Whatever that means)
