Gah, these things stress me out. Mostly post about baseball (#GOMS), rugby (#allezlesbleus #oToulouse), being a dad, & why we shouldn't be sh***y to marginalized people.

I watched it once when I was a kid. The one Sean Burroughs played in. I’m so sorry.

You guys considered covering how to get to heaven from Belfast? Seems like you’re searching for good new(ish) content to cover.

We're barely even part of the equation. But you have to figure we can't keep them out of the US market forever if they start dominating literally everywhere else and we're just refusing to let people buy the very good $30-35k EV our manufacturers have been trying and failing to deliver for years.

May have said this before but when my kid was a toddler I convinced her friend we couldn't watch Caillou because my wife was allergic to it.

About halfway through Pete's run I looked up the team's total franchise record on pro football reference. I wasn't surprised to see they were still a losing team overall. 1984-2005 were tough years and it was tough to see the Hawks as anything other than a losing franchise. Now we're at 416-376-1.

Optimism heading into ST is a weird feeling. Leaving one spot open for one of the kids to try to claim is so much better than leaving 2 open and hoping for the best.

If he stays healthy I think he'll probably split the difference between 2024 and 2025. If he does that for 2 years and then ages semi-gracefully through 33 or so I think that's a guy with a pretty compelling HOF case.

Yeah, I saw. He got started late for sure, but it's going to be a lot easier for him to rack up more value moving forward than Yordan, who's only 6 months younger and who needs to be one of the best hitters alive to rack up real value.

Surprised not to see Raleigh on here. Even accepting he's not likely to repeat 2025, 3 more years like 2024 will have him at 250 HR and pushing 40 (f)WAR through age 31.

Seriously considering an edit to the "critical reception" section along the lines of: "Baseball analyst Christopher Crawford described it as a "nonsense song" and dismissed suggestions of deeper meaning and complexity as "pretentious bull crap." But I probably won't.

This isn't my proudest moment, but I interpreted this as you saying there was a reference *to you* in the Wiki page for Feeling This and I looked for it for longer than I care to disclose publicly before figuring it out.

They're in perpetual rebuild mode. Likely because once they got there a few years back, they realized it's a pretty sweet place to be, financially. This would've been reasonable in 2021. In 2026, when you've got the chance to improve a team that came one swing/pitch from a WS, it's a major bummer.

The best-case “realistic” offseason is probably re-sign Naylor, trade for an average-ish RF who’s not so good you can’t bench him if healthy 2026 Robles is good, a bullpen grab bag, and a lot of platitudes about waiting for the young guys to develop.

Maybe, though the team just made a chunk of change from the playoff pool. $39m comes off the books between the Mitches, Solano, and DMo (and another $7m from Polanco but that’s a real loss). Bigger issue is FA’s basically Naylor/Bichette or bust and we all know they’re not getting Bichette.

TBH I think there’s a hole at 2B/SS too. JP should probably move to 2B and the 2B who played this year, though young, aren’t very good (yet).

It’s gonna be a tough offseason too. Holes at 1B, 3B, and RF, probably shouldn’t re-sign Geno and bringing Naylor back won’t be cheap. Need a real bullpen upgrade and could use at least 1 more starter.

Not to be all zen or anything but this season was a gift. Now let’s improve the manager, lengthen the bullpen, and sign Bichette so JP can play his last year with the team at 2B where he belongs and our bad 2Bs can learn to be not bad in AAA.

Seattle and Toronto should switch ballparks. Not cities, mind you. Just deconstruct each ballpark and move them. It’s a win-win.

Maybe, but I’m still hoping we see Hancock at some point. He’s good in relief and it would help keep other arms fresh. A 4-run lead seems like a good time.

So is Hancock just on the roster in like an ornamental way or… I’ve been a skeptic for years but dude legitimately looked great in his last start and has been nails in relief and it feels like Wilson’s forgotten about him. Would be a solid 3-inning opener.
