If they do that, then they need to drop interleague play, or wind it back to when it was only against one division each season, and the regional rivalries. As a NL East fan, I have no burning desire to see the Yankees and Red Sox every friggin' season.

Your discussion about how thin available good starting pitching in this league is is reason number 1 why MLB should not expand anytime in the near future.

I went a Red Wings game on 7/17. I heard Weimer announced into the game and thought "Joey!" Then I looked at his picture on the scoreboard and thought "Wow. You didn't take this send-down well at all." And his lackluster plate appearances and and body language seemed to confirm it.

Regarding Weimer. I went to a Red Wings game a few weeks ago. I heard him announced into the game and thought "Joey!" Then I looked at his picture on the scoreboard and thought "Wow. You didn't take this send-down well at all." His lackluster plate appearances and body language seemed to confirm it.

Whenever you guys declare that "X versus Y should be a good pitching matchup," it seems to as well for us as the Sports Illustrated cover curse. Stop it. 🙂

On today's episode, you mention that the Nats are leading the league in runs scored in the 1st inning and the 7th-9th innings. I think that is a result of this organization finally becoming more data driven.

I get the Nats strategy here with Rochester-DC express. But how does Rochester navigate this? It feels like they're getting the short end of this deal. "We're going to take this pitcher for a game and send him back spent, so you can't use him for a couple days."

So, how is this a "strategic partnership" if the university is generating no income from Ideastream for basically giving away this broadcast license? And the internship thing is a joke. It's like someone stealing your watch and acting like it's amazing generosity to tell you what time it is.

As CSU is WCSB's license holder, does that not make it a state-owned asset, making that NDA shady AF and potentially legally dubious?

Also, the "shutdowns" are nothing but stupid political theater. If you can't pass a budget, shut it all down. Don't pay anybody, no military, no Secret Service, no National Parks, nothing! And least of all Congress, FFS. This is nonsense invented by Gingrich.

I need the left to focus now. With no power, this was the least shitty deal the Dems were going to get. People of lesser means were really feeling pain and SCOTUS was not likely to help. We, the voters did our part to get us to this point. Fume, primary, whatever, but be at the polls on 11/3/26.

Old school thinking is one of the things that got us where we are now, so I'm good with this. The Rays farm system is top notch (unlike ours). So, I'd rather go this route than throwing idiotic sums at free agents that may or may not be a bust.
