like I’ve always said, Tyler Mahle is the greatest deadline addition in Braves history

I hate it but gotta wonder if he’d make the most sense in a prime Andrew Miller role or closer/high leverage relief

Chris Sale doing this at age 37 is just wild. Sometimes you see a guy who takes insane care of their physical condition outlast Father Time for a bit, but this guy is built like Gumby and still snatching souls out there.

This game was too electric to end on that call. That’s gotta be an outlier bad call. It’s real bad. Someone @fangraphs.com should quantify this.

Funny thing is, Tyler Rogers’ brother is Taylor, so they went for the third option: Trevor, who is not related to either

My org @immcouncil.org represents those two gay men. They had been arrested on charges of sodomy by Iranian moral police, and fled the country seeking asylum. They face the death penalty if returned, yet the Trump admin denied their asylum claims in a kangaroo court process. They are terrified.

Two Iranian men, who are gay, told their lawyer Bekah Wolf with the American Immigration Council that they were set to be deported on the Sunday flight. Homosexuality is illegal and punishable by death in Iran, which executed two gay men in 2022 and is considered one of the world's most repressive countries for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.
"They're terrified," Wolf told MS NOW. One of her clients "calls every 45 minutes begging me to save his life."
"We need a court of some sort to fully hear their claims before they're sent back to a country where being gay is punishable by death," said Wolf.
She said her two clients have no criminal convictions and entered the U.S. in early 2025 on asylum claims. Both were in the middle of appeals though did not have stays of removal, Wolf said.
Ultimately, Wolf said, "they did not have full hearings of their asylum claims in any meaningful way."

Indiana football is Cinderella with a chainsaw, a combination fairytale and horror movie. On the one hand, you've never seen the story go this way before! How will it end? On the other hand... THE BLOOD. BLOOD EVERYWHERE. SO MUCH BLOOD

Indiana football is like if Cinderella had a chainsaw

The story of Indiana football is simultaneously a fairytale and a horror movie. PLUS ... oh yeah, Miami! In any other year, we'd be unable to shut up about the Canes. And we relive the College Footbal...

every story about this person reads the same she made a career claiming media was lazy & politically biased, having no clue how journalism works or the rigor involved in reporting. now in charge, she assumes she can easily produce her own lazy, politically biased work, but keeps running into walls

just to get ahead of stuff like this: don't bother coming up with cap/floor numbers that "feel right." If you're going to bother, you have to base it off the revenue split. So what % goes to players and what goes to owners. THEN you have to define what revenue belongs in the pool.

shohei's 10 strikeouts and moonshot home run distances were really just for style points. short of pitching a complete game he completely maxed out all channels through which he could deliver objective value, so he poured his leftover brilliance into knocking out side quests. it seems impossible
