The most memorable game I have ever been to is the Magglio walkoff in 2006, and a close second is the Saturday 12-inning walkoff the second to the last day of 1987. Some of the other memorable games I've been to include: Shohei pitching a one-hitter in the first game of a doubleheader in 2023 Henderson Alvarez no-hitter in Miami in 2013 The ALDS clincher against the Yankees in 2006, in which A-Rod batted eighth! Tigers' first-ever regular season game in Wrigley in 2000. (We lost 😢) The second-to-last game ever in Tiger Stadium in 1999 Bobby Higginson three-homer game in 1997 Tram and Lou's last game together in Baltimore 1995 Ken Griffey Sr and Ken Griffey Jr playing in the same game 1990 Cecil Fielder's roof shot in 1990 Kirk Gibson's roof shot in 1983 George Brett's three-homer game in 1983 Hank Aaron's only Tiger Stadium home run in 1975 My first-ever game in 1972 against the Texas Rangers, a game in which Ted Williams had a duty to perform

You're right, of course, that's her calculation, although he can never get there on his own. There would have to be some sort of putsch.

We may have gotten the comp sandwich pick as a consequence of our not-so-goodness, but point is, all 29 other teams had a crack at Kevin, so they could have seen the exact thing we saw. I would love to know what the thinking inside the office was when it came to this pick. Did they have their eye on Kevin the whole time and calculated that everyone else would pass on him because of his presumed price?

On the one hand, I have to ask, is he the best she could do? On the other, if the Intertubes are to be believed, at $12 million, he's worth six times she is. Aim low, that's where you go.

Yes, because any link will tell us the Trump administration always follow the rules.

There might be something to that ...

I thought he had a 70 hit tool? Did they upgrade him or did I misread that somewhere?

Bet you can still make a few bucks off it.

Clark was a high pick, #4 overall, after the 2022 season? Rainer was 11th overall after 2023. McGonigle was 37th, meaning every other team had at least one shot at him. For context, Tork was #1 overall, Casey was #1 overall, and Riley was #5 overall.

The NYTimes publishes a million words from hundreds of people every day. Super easy to find a few dozen words that make people's hair combust. Beyond that, I read the article, and I'm having trouble seeing what the problem is here.

Talk about a nutshell—this says everything about not only Trump, but also the people who worship him. And the best part is, the red hats will insist he's kidding!

Well, if Congress demands it, no way the Trump people would ever dare ignore that.

Fun fact: Cale Iorg played for Canada in the 2013 WBC. 1-for-12, six strikeouts. His highlight was hitting a sac fly.

he's trolling

I have a feeling he’s made peace with it.

I think anyone would love to have a career as dead as that!

This tells me more about the America League at the moment than it does about the Minnesota Twins.

Aren't they trying to overturn the Presidential Records Act so Trump can take home all the documents he wants if/when he leaves, and destroy the rest?

That we know of as of now.

They couldn't even be bothered to change her name for the different states? Weak sauce.

I too would like to believe that because all the prior crises in American history resolved normally while keeping our constitutional order intact, that this crisis will resolve the same way, by definition.

He does appear to fill most of the main criteria: he's the ruler of an empire who exercises widespread authority and demands allegiance and worship; he's a deceiver who misleads believers and their ministers; he exalts himself above all objects of worship and even sets himself up in God’s place; he rejects divine and moral order; and he is waging war against the faithful in his attacking of the Pope. All he has left to do is deny that Jesus is the Christ (i.e., the Messiah) and deny that Jesus came in the flesh and he's pretty much 100% there.

lol the pope is weak on crime. guess i won't be voting for him this november.

I'm not one who typically agrees with MTG, but Stopped Clock definitely applies here.
