  1. The opponents are more ready too! However, the really good ones often start early, so starting at 21 years old is not that rare.
  2. When I say he'll probably start at some point, that means I am assuming there will be injuries. A team should have 8 viable starters at the beginning of the season. I think he's one of the 8 along with Melton , Anderson and the top 5. Melton and Anderson would probably be ahead of him. A couple of them may start in Toledo.
  3. Keider Montero wasn't bad We'll probably see him start at some point. He wasn't bad last year. I could see him as a long reliever to start the season.
  4. That is funny because I have my own 85% rule which I like to follow. I just made it up myself 21 meals per week - 18 healthy ones and 3 not so healthy. That is roughly 85%. It seems to work for me.
  5. OK, I have youtube, so I probably don't need ESPN. I really don't understand any of this stuff.
  6. Do you have to spend an hour with them on the phone in order to cancel?
  7. yes, they make things difficult for you on purpose, but if you are able and willing to do the work, you can win your case. They know that most people won't bother to do that though.
  8. I am happy though that the Supreme Court did not cave on the tariffs. It does not matter whether they are good or bad (which is probably the case). They are illegal.
  9. You and me and everyone else we know!
  10. WAR was still in the development stage back then. It will be interesting to go back throught it and see how much it agrees with modern WAR calculations.
  11. I actually liked the logo...but not for the Tigers. It was minor league.
  12. I still have one of those caps and wear it frequently!
  13. They got very colorful in the 1970s (not the Tigers but other teams) and then they eventually went back to more traditional uniforms. I don't really care anymore. If they have to screw around with the game, let it be the uniforms rather than how the game is played.
  14. Tony Clark is too soft. He just doesn't care enough. You can tell by his body language. He has the talent, but never does anything when it counts. We would lose all of April and May with him in charge. now, we can hope for a full season.
  15. It can be done, but they don't allow it. Whether they do anything about it probably depends on what you do with it, like if you try to sell it.
  16. Right, that is what started the epidemic in the first place.
  17. They could try, but really smart people who follow that stuff closely would pick up on it right away and these are people with a lot of money and power. I don't think it's so easy to just make up numbers and get away with it.
  18. They don't have to create fake numbers though. They can just tell maga world that the numbers are at record low and they'll be believed. Wall Street won't fall for it though. The CPI is real, although maybe not so meaningful as it's made out to be.
  19. Is Stefania Constantini involved in that in any way?
  20. This is really interesting. Producing a live tracker is not something I have done before, so I am curious . Are you using excel to do this? The hardest part would seem to be getting data from sites automatically. How are you dealing with baseball-reference which doesn't allow aotomated scraping?
  21. I am putting more and more money into a CD ladder as I age. I am still in S&P 500, but also have a global fund which has done significantly better than S&P since the beginning of last year. I am not sure what to do with maturing CDs as interest rates drop. So far, they are still decent (close to 4% in January).
  22. The worst numbers for measuring economic health are the probably market indexes. They are measuring something in which the majority of American are unable to participate. Why would someone who has no money to invest care about the S&P 500?
