Tapper has retweeted a whole bunch of other tweets about Biden, FWTW.

He knows Dr Jill is not a medical doctor and there is no such thing as stage five cancer. He’s purposefully marginalizing Biden and his illness with a classless joke. Millions of red hats are cackling at it.

I’ll bet you a dollar to a dime that he has something they’re not telling us about and that we may never definitely learn about.

Joe Biden has been diagnosed with a super aggressive from of prostate cancer. He probably won’t see the end of the year. It’s a very, very sad way for a very good president to go out. 😢

Andy Ibanez owes Will Vest and Gleyber Torres BIIIIG steak dinners.

I don’t want to walk Vlad but I sure don’t want him to beat me.

Oh s***, Andy Ibanez!!! Need four outs from you, Willie.

I’ve never noticed that.

Didn’t want to put this in the Red Wings forum and it doesn’t comfortably fit anyplace else, so here it is. The latest ETTD tidbit:

So, “Anderson”, and neither “Andersson” or “Andersen”?

As long as their future earnings potential turns on certain statistics, they will always want to maximize those statistics. Wins is definitely on the way out as a descriptive statistic, but I do think it’s hanging on with some pitchers, at least in perception.

Probably because more southern whites migrated to Detroit versus the Norwegians that predominate in Minnesota. Different approaches to their racism.

Even more depressing then the fact that this person felt completely at ease spewing her hateful garbage in this video, is the fact that she started an online fundraiser to “protect her family” after the incident and has raised something like $700,000. My guess as to why she’s been able to raise so much is that she has the look of the kind of woman that Nazified white Christian nationalists would like to get busy populating the world with. C-word is too kind a description for this person. “Monster” seems more apt. Her poor kid doesn’t have a chance.

The majors is rough on 21-year-old rookies. I think this is something to monitor with Jobe.

He’s not having clean innings, but Jobe is gutting his way through this start pretty nicely.

Chart must have showed them something.

Ooh, Jobe is turning into a pumpkin here in the fourth.

Man, Dingler is smacking the ball pretty good today.

The Akil Baddoo game! You can see just how much he’s feeling himself as he stands at the plate, and practically flips the bat on that walk he took.

Maybe. Or maybe it’s that they think their inner lives are so interesting they think we all wanna hear about it. Or maybe they’re basically amateurs and never gave any thought to structuring their podcast to maximize listener interest.

Thank you! I came across that when I went back to one of the Athletic podcasts just yesterday. Well, first it was 3-1/2 minutes of commercials. Then it was five minutes of talking about their own taste in music. Then at the 8:something mark they said, well, we should probably talk about baseball now. Eye roll.

I don’t listen for sports, because too much of it is guys trying to be too cute by half, but I do like news and issues oriented pods, such as On The Media, Pivot, Fresh Air, or Planet Money. I also listen to the occasional American History Hit or This American Life. I’m like Bert: I don’t have the attention span to just sit and listen to a podcast. Maybe I would have during the golden age of radio.

I guess it’s three fresh guys for tomorrow.

Didn’t Hanifee throw 30 pitches yesterday? EDIT: Maybe AJ’s idea is, if Hanifee gets us through, we still have three fresh guys for extras, and if he gives up the game here, we still have three fresh guys for tomorrow.

I get that we have a baserunning philosophy, but maybe we suspend it for Torres.
