very easy to him to say he's bored and doesn't care, but one small detail remains - the Strait is still closed.

fun game if you don't mind SLOPPY

over extended or not - Vest has 97 tonight

NOW Short goes to SS.

oh boy - we are on our way to exhausted Will Vest - again. 1st out on 109 off the bat.

I get no indication at all the the management is willing to take responsibility for the poor defensive play by guys they won't let learn and settle into regular positions.

a slight swing in Hinch's luck - one of his PH actually reaches.

ironic that a management that talks so much about run prevention has collected such a menagerie of misfit toy infielders.

Tork has no excuse, the other guys are all wandering fielders, so I've come to expect it.

LOL -two balls off a glove in one inning. you can't make it up.

the options may all be bad, but I still really wish Hinch would pull guys after the 2nd runner. Just hate to see a guy come in with the bases loaded.

it's going to be another too big to fail fiasco. The exposure is going to be so widespread that these jerks are going to get bailed out -- as usual.

platner is politics as entertainment - as long as it's not your state to worry about.

just because he's another guy who has never managed to stay on the field long enough to prove his bat and until a guy does that, the odds remain that he isn't going to hit.

there isn't a single bat at Toledo I'm even interested in seeing. Earlier this year it would have been Anderson, but he's tailed off, Maglieri is just an old AAA player on a decent AAA run. Julks ran out of gas in ST as soon as the pitching got serious. Clarkisn't doing anything much. They need to get Skubal on the mound pitching well and then move him for at least one major league ready can't miss position prospect - something along the line of an Austin Jackson (but that could stay healthy!) Then you hope you can cobble together next years pitching staff from Valdez, Melton, Maddon, Jobe, a fixed Flaherty and/or a Mize you're able to resign cheap because of his injury history.

And it only adds insult to injury that given Mize's inability to stay on the field no-one is going to want to give up a bag of balls for him.

Platner's wife is standing by her man. As was the case with Hillary and Bill, this aspect won't have much traction as long as she's still on board. So it will be on to the next thing - whatever it is.

Reality bites, but it always gets the last word.

It would be nice if he'd stay on track for a while - 920 OPS in his last dozen games.

the economic threat of open source SW and increasing local computational power are huge risks to the current industry model maga data center model that are being pretty much ignored. That's easy when the vendors are mostly giving away the product to try to build market, but once the price starts going up, those open source tools with 90% of the same capacity at an order of magnitude less cost become easy purchasing decisions.

Anthropic has filed for an IPO

The ol' rope-a-dope. Turtle up and let your opponent exhaust himself, then come pick up the pieces!

LOL - DOA. Unserious legislator - as he has ever been.

Give me the best bat on ball skill player of his generation and I can appreciated if he stands alone with respect to that skill, yet still understand that that much skill aimed at batting average becomes art for art's sake, which is fine, but it isn't necessarily the best way to win baseball games.

I wonder how much large funds buy index instruments - what would be the point for them? Laziness I suppose? I know I've gotten notices from Fidelity that the current market has put their S&P index fund bylaws into self contradiction as the bylaws have limits on how large a % of the index any stock can be. I don't remember if they said they were waiving the limit or just leaving some stocks capped and thus diverging from the index - that was the point I started getting out so I didn't care which.
