No thoughts just banana ball.

I saw the Savannah Bananas play against the Party Animals the other day and omg 😭 I love them so much, literally the best first baseball game experience. And thanks to my friend’s little sis for introducing me to one of the players music cause it’s been on repeat.

the baseball we deserve

(this is the savannah bananas. they dance. they wear kilts. they Love The Boys. also they have a dance team made up of seniors called the banana nanas, a "dad bod cheerleading squad", the man-nanas, and a charity organisation focused on foster care called bananas foster)

so, when i have to kill time at work, i occasionally find myself looking up baseball teams. not actually watching baseball or doing particularly deep research, but i'll chase curiosities about japanese baseball and minor american leagues.

and you want to know what's currently happening with the minor league (hence milb)?

they've expanded from 120 teams to 121

the newest team?

the malmö oat milkers!

which is... a very brave thing to name your team.

and i'm sure you're wondering where malmö is. certainly odd for a us town to feature a diaeresis, i'll bet that town has an interesting history!

oh, it's named for a swedish city. so... where are the oat milkers actually based out of?

wait, can you elaborate on what this means?

oh. the oat milkers don't actually exist in a sort of 'everyone are the oat milkers' type of way.

so oatly, an oat milk company, has paid off the major leagues to create a virtual minor league baseball team. which is insane, but baseball teams are actually owned by major corporations in the background so at least there's a sort of... honesty* to this advertising stunt?

but also zero dollars from this deal goes to the actual minor league teams themselves, despite not being allowed to opt out of playing a game as and against the oat milkers, so it's all corrupt.

also i can't find any oat milkers merch online, so what's even the point if i can't get a baseball cap and/or jersey that says 'oat milkers'!?

-

* the japanese leagues (the npb) notably integrate the parent companies into the names, which is how you get the yomiuri giants and the nippon-ham fighters
