Buehler has Flaherty 2.0 written all over him.

I think the Tigers #3 starter next year is pitching tonight.

11M, $1M assignment bonus to be paid by the acquiring team.

Rates and Barrells threw out Yandy Diaz as a Tigers trade candidate...

My quick and dirty 40 man math...

I came across something recently that suggest players who rely on speed and athleticism but have recurring soft tissue leg/core issues are more likely to age faster. I think it was BA.

I just can't help but notice the team went on its best run in 40 years after it shed about $60M in salary (full year, not prorated; including IL-ing Baez).

This is lost on people who think the only way to improve a team is to spend on free agents, but you are onto something here. This isn't to say the team shouldn't dip into free agency, but they need to be selective and do research on the soft factors before adding somebody to the mix.

It's a good ad, but would have done well not to drop a "goddamn" at the end of it.

I will get pedantic and say it was 6 games against the White Sox that Boston didn't have. The above implies Boston didn't get to play them at all, when they got them 7 times.

How are we both baseball nuts when baseball decided to go on strike during our Age 9 Seasons?

Mize wasn't on the DS roster.

Indeed he was.

Gonna leave this here. I was tracking this over the course of the series, and didn't know until tonight that the Guardians actually hired the guy who found this effect. In game 4, I flagged Holton vs. Ramirez and Brieske vs. Fry. If guys like Holton, Brieske, and Vest started leaking oil toward the end of the series, it may be this effect. https://www.theringer.com/mlb/2023/10/27/23935127/world-series-preview-texas-rangers-arizona-diamondbacks-bullpens-repeat-reliever-effect

Gonna go on a limb and say 2020, haha.

Damn shirt has been out for delivery all day...

Turn off the sports talk radio and talking head ESPN/FS1 shows.

The JL Lewis segment on this morning's Shotgun Start Podcast was an all timer.

A three-day weekend that will be spent cleaning up after Milton (and Helene, because fence repairs aren't quick).

It's too late for me to write in Ronald Reagan to get us a World Series.

You may have heard Dickerson talking about this. I've been monitoring...

The tornados aren't a surprise, or they shouldn't be. That is always the fear on the front right side of a hurricane and it is one of the four threats the NHC monitors. Central and South Florida were lit up on the warning maps all week. The NHC does great work preparing people for these storms. That Project 2025 plans to strip it down to the studs is something that needs to be amplified.
