Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is the 12th player with at least 9 RBI in his team’s first 4 games of a postseason (RBI official since 1920)
His 9 hits in those games are the most of those 12 players
In Division Series opener, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. finally gets his postseason moment. Column: www.nytimes.com/athletic/669...
That’s what I was expecting

Despite some who said that trading to get him was a “fireable offence,” Straw has been huge part of the #BlueJays success this season. Mostly with his defence, but he’s swung the bat pretty well too. I had my doubts at the time. Thoughts @wilnerness.bsky.social?

That isn’t exactly shocking I guess, but not what we wanted to hear.
Good for him. Figured someone would give him a shot.
@petermansbridge.bsky.social love your pod. Wish someone would correct the spelling of Chantal’s name on the intro to “Good Talks” on Apple. Always incorrect. She’s the best and her name should be properly spelled
Not sure how to contact who ever writes in intro to Good Talks, but Chantal’s name (first and last) is spelled incorrectly (all the time) on the Apple Podcast descriptor. Perhaps someone could review their work?
We’ll all be watching Bowden’s start with bated breath.
Well said David.
We’ll said Matt
Lucky you Tao!. It’s increasingly hard to watch a full game!
It was another tough loss for the #BlueJays who aren’t generating enough runs to give their overworked relievers a breather. @bnsbaseball.bsky.social updates the current state of affairs with the team #LightsUpLetsGo www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/...

All I know for sure is thank gawd the world won't be subjected to Kamala's quirky laugh for the next four years.
We really dodged a bullet there.
Hoffman is proving to be the real deal. Despite the fan reaction to the front office cutting Romano loose, getting Hoffman has made fans forget that angst.
Pierre Poilievre is seen in a screenshot from a recent press conference with a deeply tanned face
An older picture of Pierre Poilievre taken from his Wikipedia page shows a much more pale man
Continually caught off guard by the amount of bronzer (or tanning drops??) Poilievre appears to be using these days

The French overseas territory St. Pierre et Miquelon (population 5,800) now has the highest tariff rates in the world at 99%
Their exports are valued at just $3.5 million dollars a year.
Great show guys. Let’s enjoy it while we can!
ok, but when Donny’s team of economic brainiacs got to Heard and McDonald Islands, by what insane fever dream did they calculate a ten percent tariff? because it’s in the middle of the Antarctic — and, as noted at the top of this post, is inhabited only by pengiuns. how are we generating a trade imbalance with penguins, for fuck’s sake? because I’ve seen penguins in the zoo. you throw a fish at them, they catch it in mid-air and swallow it down — and then they waddle around, hoping for more. that’s it. that’s their whole deal. it’s an economy based on free fish. and pray tell, why the fuck did they slap an 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory? because the only thing there is a US military base. these morons just tariffed their own soldiers. they also slapped a 10% tariff on the meteorological station of the Arctic Sea island of Jan Mayan. it’s a small Norwegian island with no permanent residents. something like 18 researchers work there. they don’t have an economy.

This is quite the response to Rosemary Barton by Elizabeth May. Elizabeth May is widely respected because she calls it like it is and has never been afraid to stand up for her values. I look forward to having her join me again on the OShow this week. #CdnPoli #CanadaSky
