  1. Whitley's stock is very low but he's just a few months of looking like his old self for his value to skyrocket again. Stuff is stuff.
  2. Hasn't been particularly good in AAA but happy for him. Appel is so interesting to me. What other prospects of the same caliber never really showed anything in the minors like Appel? Guy had maybe a few good months in AA and that was that?
  3. It's a freakshow is what it is.
  4. Well no shit. But she's not even trying to stop it. Put together a bill codifying Griswold at least before it's gone too. They couldn't bother doing that for Roe even though they had a two month heads up that this was going to happen.
  5. Maybe southern states throwing women in jail for having miscarriages will be the straw that finally flushes this fucking turd out of Congress for good. Well past time for new leadership in both chambers.
  6. This is going to be a fundraising bonanza for the dems, seemingly the only thing they care about. Consultants and party hacks going to get paid!
  7. People hate on Thomas, but I think Alito is the worst justice. Alito is just a worse, wannabe version of that fat fuck who died a few years ago. Thomas is insane and pretty stupid but ideologically he's one of the most unique and interesting of the justices. For instance, this analogy test Thomas pulled out of his ass here. The problem produced by the second amendment is that the US today has very little in common with the country that produced the Constitution. This leads to things like Americans shooting each other and themselves at unheard of rates in the developed world. How does Thomas handle this issue, by making it the crux of his bullshit madeup test!
  8. I've been a Pressly fan up until this season where he clearly has not been very good. I worry that his fastball will be the end of him as the pitch sucks but he doesn't have enough other quality offerings to keep fastball usage low.
  9. The bullpen is fine. Pressly has played like shit this season and is owed a boat load of money starting next year!
  10. I cannot believe they signed Pressly to that deal when they could have simply waited to the off-season. What is it about relievers that makes Click retarded.
  11. That’s hugely promising. People whining about the runs are idiots.
  12. I'm sure the equipment is there. They've had Trackman installed for years and now have that new pitching lab. Need the people though and a coach willing to utilize them.
  13. He's not walking many hitters though. He gives up a lot of contact and this season hitters have made more productive use of that contact.
  14. The Astros catching tandem might be the worst positional group in the history of major league baseball, but at the same time I can't see them ponying up for Contreras and who knows who they like of the rest. A guy like Stallings would probably be a good upgrade but who knows if they think someone like that is worth pulling the trigger for. Yuli should be much easier to address. Lot of good options to replace him with.
  15. I think Stevens was overrated coming into this season. Just doesn't have that impressive of stuff.
  16. Does anyone know why Pierce doesn't have a video/analytics director on staff? Almost all of the big programs have one of these guys now (Will Fox at A&M, Sean McCann at Tenn being a couple of examples) but looking at the UT site I don't see a similar position at Texas. The closest analog I can find on our staff is Caleb Longley but it's not clear he's responsible for scouting/development using video/analytics as primary tools.
  17. Outside of a few tracks, this has actually been a pretty enjoyable season, imo. Like the new car overall and it's been very competitive. Hopefully they can fix the short track issues this season.
  18. When I went to HS in Charlotte ECU was considered the TTU of the state - where you went if you didn't have good enough grades for UNC/Duke and too broke to go anywhere else.
