Fuck this - Maldy isn’t the perfect anything anymore. He sucks at hitting. His defense is atrocious. His magic power was supposedly preparation and game planning but it didn’t actually reduce anyone’s ERA when compared to the other Astros catchers.
Earlier this season to watch one of the Roku games, I was able to get the game in my internet browser on my phone and shared the screen to my Appletv. It was a pain in the ass but ultimately worked.
I know that Bernie is an independent - however, why is Bernie forcing D senators to take this vote?
It only forces you to piss someone off in your state. I may actually agree with the policy but taking these votes when they have zero chance to pass may have negative ramifications as you try to win seats in 2026.
You can’t enact better policies until you have a majority.
I would really like to see the numbers on how the new districts looked based on the 2018 and 2022 midterms. Presidential election turnouts are clearly a different animal.
For those who don’t want to trade Matthews, what is the comparable player who has eliminated a similar whiff problem?
In the minors, he strikes out 30% of the time.
Marcus Semien may be a comp as he struck out around 30% of the time in his first 2 partial seasons with the White Sox. He eventually worked that rate into the teens.
Jeremy Pena started out with a 24% K rate and has reduced it annually to his 16% K rate this year.
The solar panel is a game changer. I highly recommend getting the solar panels for any game camera and then forgetting about the batteries. I have some Cuddeback cameras with the solar panels and it eliminated the need to change batteries on a monthly basis.
Powell is done in less than a year anyway. I agree with your comment on the outcome regardless if he’s fired or leaves when his term as chair ends. I think the bond markets are going to start pushing up rates on longer term treasuries even if the fed lowers the federal funds rate.
In the last round, they specifically shored up incumbents because the Rs thought they reached the limits of their gerrymandering in Texas. To do this, they will have to make seats more competitive. If they believed there were 5 seats to be gained, they absolutely would have done that in 2020.
TFG has demonstrated a significant disregard to any and all risks. That’s how you end up with Herschel Walker winning the R nomination in Georgia. He’s requesting that several of the R incumbents walk the plank and they are hoping it doesn’t break. I hope they all end up drowning in the ocean.
I was stuck listening to the Rangers radio broadcast on my way home today. They specifically mentioned that Brown’s fastball velocity was down 3/4 mph from the first inning. Hopefully, he just needs rest.
Espada’s quoted in Chandler’s article that they didn’t do any imaging of Jake’s calf upon the initial injury. The medical staff didn’t think it was necessary. These guys have to be the dumbest mother fuckers on the planet. After everything that’s happened including the failure to identify fractures in Yordan and Tucker, they still didn’t think Jake needed any imaging. Stop being cheap and get every test/xray/image taken. They will never learn.
