As AJ said, fantastic to clinch at home, and with a win.
Royals I'm sure are thrilled, but they are on the road, and backed in after a loss, waiting a few hours to see the Twins final collapse
before the season, if you told Tiger fans that Brant Hurter was about to go 6-1 with a 2.58 ERA as a bulk reliever and get the win in the Playoff clinching game, most fans would say, "Who the eff is Brant Hurter?"
Crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
people are looking at this wrong.
yes it's unseemly for a "billionaire" former POTUS to be hawking all this crap.
but the real issue is money laundering. $10M seems to be the going price for a bribe for Trump if Egypt report is correct.
so pick any oligarch in the world; he "buys" 100 watches at 100K - that's $10M.
he does not even need the watches to be delivered. if they are, fine, throw them in the trash.
Trump is accepting payment in bitcoin which is key to evading taxes, sanctions and audit trail
Flaherty has pitched 55 good innings for LAD, he was a little better in Det, but regardless, Hinch covered those 55 innings just fine. (with added bonus of getting 3 young arms some ML experience).
assuming Javy would have season-ending surgery in either scenario, having Sweeney as SS is a HUGE part of the surge; I don't think it would have happened with Kreidler and McKinstry at SS
Yankees have lost Nestor Cortez (maybe for the year)
Grayson Rodriguez is out until 2025
Austin Riley is out until 2025
This just reinforces the importance of getting into the playoffs every year - anything can happen!
