  1. These are the only remaining people who will vote for Trump: 1. Racists 2. Sexists 3. Single issue voters who think they’ll pay less taxes under Trump (most of them are wrong, because they are not as rich as they think they are) 4. Single issue pro-life voters 5. conspiracy theorists 6. people who suck brain poison out of the boob tube (Fox News viewers) There are ZERO rational-thinking, analytical-minded voters who look at truly meaningful things like foreign policy, economic policy, social policy, or character who will pull the lever for Trump. And it still might be enough for that piece of shit to get to 270.
  2. Yep. Terrifying. That is the kind of shit that will energize his moronic base and even potentially capture some swing voters. Fuck me running. Yep. They need to get this trial over with so he’s either locked up and can’t run or get on TV, or exonerated and can’t use the “I’m being persecuted” bit. This is the worst I’ve felt about Trump potentially winning since 2020.
  3. Not sure why The Athletic pays Bowden, he is terrible. Theres zero chance the Jays would accept that deal. Maybe if Houston threw in Hunter Brown and replaced Corona with Melton.
  4. Radar shows a band of red over the watershed starting around 7 tonight.
  5. Rubio would help him with swing voters but got damn if Little Marco actually goes for that…fucking pitiful.
  6. Such a badass play. It’s amazing how much different it is when a player can contribute in the field. Nobody is calling for Bregman’s head yet even though he has a wRC+ of sixtyfuckingthree because even if hes not hitting he usually makes the tough plays at 3B. That was a big part of what made Abreu so hard to watch, an absolute zero at the plate, then he’d fuck up easy plays in the field. Hopefully Loperfido can end up a high level defender at 1B.
  7. Lmfao “Let’s bring up one of my staunch supporters, she owns a restaurant that serves food I hate, I will try it later and probably hate it”
  8. This is 100% bullshit imho. If there is anything anywhere close to a legit injury causing Abreu’s collapse, he would have been on the IL weeks ago. He’s not hurt. Any amateur can see how slowly his bat moves and how far behind fastballs he is. That’s not a bum knee. That is (almost certainly) Father Time, and if it’s not that, it’s a mental issue. He is being sent off to save face. Some time will pass and he will be released or a deal will be worked out so he can retire.
  9. There was a big ding in healthcare because of Medicare Advantage, CVS was down 17% on the day. Not sure what kind of impact that had on the overall market.
  10. Zero people think you’re some kind of unicorn, you stupid shitbird. Everyone knows there are tens of millions of dumb motherfuckers just like you. Thats the problem. I would give anything for your ignorant misguided stillborn foolish worldview to be rare.
  11. When I was in college, a president cancelling student loan debt and legalizing weed would have been basically implementing my entire platform. Theres some fucked up shit happening in Gaza so it’s good people are worked up about it. And Biden should address it. But anyone who doesn’t vote for him because of that issue is a fucking dumbass, considering the context that he is in a close election with an opponent who wants to be a dictator.
  12. 70 grade raw power, 70 grade arm, 65 grade speed, 60 grade glove. Walks enough. All about contact profile to determine whether he’s a superstar, a solid regular, a bench player, or a AAAA guy.
  13. Running Hader out another inning wtf
  14. Singleton has a 720 ops, huge exit velos, and healthy bb/k rate. He should be playing almost everyday. Tonight’s lineup is money.
  15. May-Jun I’m always like “it’s fine, let’s go swimming”. By July 4th I’m like “fuck this” and by Aug-Sep I’m openly hostile to every person I encounter 24/7, spending my free time on zillow shopping prices on the west coast. Then that first front hits in October and I’m like ok f it let’s do another year.
  16. It really is weird how erratic Abreu’s decline was. 2014-2017: badass 2018-2019: ok 2020-2022: badass Mar-May 2023: sucked Jun-July 2023: good Aug 2023: sucked Sep-Oct 2023: badass Mar-Apr 2024: unplayable
  17. I don’t see any chance he ever plays for Houston again. They will either trade him or release him in the next few weeks.
  18. They may still be in limbo about Abreu even tho they know the intention is to get rid of him. So they may IL Chas or option Kessinger for a week or two while they finalize the plan for Abreu.
  19. Trump has proven logic does not apply when predicting election results he is involved in. So who the fuck knows. But I think the betting favorite would be a repeat of 2020. AZ, GA, WI, and NV will all be within 3 points. NC and MI will be closely contested, within say 5 points. If you asked me to make a prediction that goes against odds, it would be that I think Pennsylvania will not be close, Biden will run away with that state.
  20. Generally the best free agent values tend to come on 1 year deals for forgotten pitchers and 3-4 year deals for 2nd/3rd tier position players younger than 35 (guys like Josh Reddick and Michael Brantley). But really the best values are almost always extensions. I would have liked to see Houston be more aggressive about acquiring bad contracts that come with prospects as a way to supplement their approach of trading away a lot of prospects every deadline, especially after they got 4 top draft picks taken away.
