okay sorry just sort by ERA moving forward if that's what you want to do!

yeah i just don't think he's stuff's good enough at present

I do not think he's actually good with a 9.5% strikeout rate, no

Is this anything?

Today was a whole bunch of "this pitcher who is not good had a very good start" which is really annoying as someone who writes a daily recap newsletter, because there's only so many ways to actually say that

This feels like one of the more insane things I’ve seen an “insider” tweet???

I feel like this is pretty notably not true?

I watched him play everyday for a pretty long time and honestly this is about twice as many as I would have guessed

Would guess Tolle, think he’s on the taxi squad already

Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.

There's just gotta be a line somewhere.

Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.

okay but I would rather spend that money on concerts or actually fun things over maybe saving myself 30 minutes a couple of times a year

The Onion plans to turn Infowars into a comedy site with satirical echoes of the fringe conspiracy theories that Mr. Jones is known for. Tim Heidecker, one of the comedians behind “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, has been hired to serve as “creative director of Infowars.” He said he initially plans to parody Mr. Jones’s “whole modus operandi.” Mr. Heidecker has been working on his impression of Mr. Jones. But eventually, when that joke gets old, Mr. Heidecker said that he hoped to turn Infowars into a destination for independent and experimental comedy. “I just thought it would be just a beautiful joke if we could take this pretty toxic, negative, destructive force of Infowars and rebrand it as this beautiful place for our creativity,” Mr. Heidecker said in an interview. During a recent trip to Philadelphia, he traveled to the Liberty Bell to film a video in character as the new creative director of Infowars.

Get excited.

I believe research shows that two of the stats most likely to spike during contract years are "games played" and "stolen bases"

Ugh: Twins to Place Mick Abel on 15-Day Injured List with Elbow Injury The best story of the young season for the Twins has been the impressive work done by their starting pitchers, especially Taj Bradley and Mick Abel. Now, they'll be without one half of that duo for a ...

Updated my piece on Mick Abel's elbow issue with the rejiggered rotation status, plus the actuarial look at how long he's likely to be out. Wide error bars, but... it's not good news. twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/...

it's a thing apparently and anyone who does it needs to be kept away from the general populace

(No, not "being from Boston")

One of the absolute worst trends among sports fans.

Between 2024 and 2025, it was

Judge: .326 average, 111 HR, 517 combined runs+RBI, 22 SB
Ohtani: .296 average, 109 HR, 512 combined runs+RBI, 79 SB

If Ohtani is a 25+ SB guy, taking him over Judge makes sense. If both are like ~10-15 SB guys, gimme Judge.

Ohtani only stole nine bases after returning to pitching last year, I thought people were really overstating the stolen base gap between him and Aaron Judge at the top of drafts (and Judge is pretty clearly a better hitter by the other metrics)

it's technically navy, but they went too far

ruins what would otherwise be a pretty solid look

I keep seeing people call these "Navy and Orange" and I'll take your word for it but it's giving "Baltimore Orioles knockoff you find at Marshall's" to my eyes

it's so bad

I think the uniforms look fine enough from the front I guess, but it's also giving baltimore orioles knockoff you find for $22 at Marshall's

it's so bad

I think if you're moving Yordan Alvarez right now, you probably have to get a first-round caliber player back for him. And if you're looking for pitching, you already have Crochet, who would be the most obvious target, so...

The white bits between the letters on these jerseys is causing me psychic damage, who signed off on this uniform design

injuries can happen to anyone at any time. Sure, some players are more likely to suffer injuries, but it's really hard to quantify the difference.

But it's not hard to quantify the difference between Yordan Alvarez and most other hitters. He's better than basically all of them.
