That might be true at the tippy top of the class, but the right now the 90th overall pick gets a million dollars right off the bat, and I'm not sure that would be the case if it were an wide-open free agent situation. As it is, the top guy got $9 million, so I don't know that a bidding war—if one were to develop in the first place—would have pushed that much higher.

Sure worked that time.

This is a really good idea ... ... and it's going to completely flop. Reason being, it's already the third day of February, and people are hearing about this only now. We’re already in the middle of it, so folks are gonna be, like, well, I’ve already spent money on these companies this month, so **** it. There needs to be a pre-boycott ramp-up period during which people are educated on the concept, learn how to participate, and the date it's supposed to start. It needs to be well-promoted so there’s a critical mass of awareness before the boycott actually starts. I think this should have been called for at least a month in advance.

I consider myself a decently-educated baseball person, and I don't really understand how this works. If anyone can explain, I'd appreciate it.

The idea is to get you to drop your small business idea and get a job so you can have healthcare and, bonus, not be a competitive threat to the established business community that supports them.

I dare somebody to defend this.

I think there’s a good chance we will be at least league average at third, if for no other reason than Colt sticks there and gives us enough stick out of the position to make that happen.

Nope … not goin’ there … 😉

I’m seeing they may be trying to avoid mlb.tv by going to an independent streaming service. I hope it’s not because Baby Doc is doing everything he can specifically to keep that sweet, sweet gambling money rolling in, because mlb.tv (so far) don’t play that.

Plus she is super gay. Another strike against her.

Point of order, Mr Reichlin-Melnick: Judge Reyes is not comparing George Washington and Kristi Noem. She is contrasting George Washington and Kristi Noem. Difference.

Well, now, here’s a low-hanging-fruit prediction starting to come to fruition.

Two things: If you're gonna arm yourself, you better be ready to shoot, no cap. Police are mostly on the same ideological side as the Clive Bundy people and the red hats protesters, which may be why they didn't respond by shooting. It might be different when it comes to people they regard as degenerate communist animals.

Here in Big Shoulders, we use a touch-screen which then prints out a paper record of your vote to take with you for your reference. The paper contains no PII,

Oops! Looks like Bari Weiss is dropping the ball here.

His market was ****. That's why he fell to Cincinnati for a single year. At least the team is a devil he knows. I for one am glad Harris didn't sell the farm off to get him last year.

Explain?

He may be short of 60 WAR right now, but I think if Jose Ramirez were to walk off the field Moonlight Graham-style today, he'd be in the Hall of Fame within a couple or three years. And if his career continues and then concludes on its current trajectory, he'll be a slam-dunk first-ballot inner-circle Hall of Famer.

Bowling is definitely one sport in which I can agree that analytics leading to lane and ball optimization should be strangled in the crib. Flip side: higher scores = more bowlers = more revenue.

That's what you get for living on the edge (of the lane).

That should be a fait accompli in a healthy, or at least functional, democracy.

Feature, not bug.

I see, OK. I never felt that when I voted with those machine, but I can feel why people would feel that way.

Projection Exhibit A.

Can you share with me why those machines are untrustworthy? I don’t know anything about them, specifically.
