I think people who are paid well to talk about baseball should also know that Fernando Tatis had shoulder and wrist surgery at the same time as his steroid suspension, and shouldn’t necessarily ascribe all of his struggles since to steroids. But I’m build different

So, obviously this isn’t true. But if the CEO actually believes this nonsense, it implies he thinks maybe he’s enslaving a sentient being that has the capacity to feel emotional distress. And he hasn’t immediately halted operations to suss out how to resolve that?

You know what’s handsome?
Game-tying homers. Even Jeromy Burnitz was handsome when he hit game-tying homers.

My biggest WBC takeaway: I didn’t realize Harry Ford was as handsome as he is.

writing about starting pitchers is so stupid because what do you mean I wrote 4500 words my "SP Preview" piece and only directly wrote about like 30 pitchers? that's like 1/4 of the fantasy relevant names (really, less than 1/4, but trying to be generous)

Gosling is such an interesting actor because, well, he looks like *that*, but he's often at his best playing a silly little guy -- BARBIE and THE NICE GUYS are my two favorite movies with him.

Which is to say, I think he can pull off the goofy middle school science teacher who refuses to curse!

I've never read/listened to THE MARTIAN, but I love the movie, so I'm probably gonna check that out once I finish PHM.

THE MARTIAN really is one of my favorite movies of the past few years. Just a rollicking good time. My favorite Ridley Scott movie since ... GLADIATOR?

I'm doing the audiobook for PROJECT HAIL MARY right now and it's just terrific. I've heard some complaints about the dialogue/writing style being a bit cheesy, but I really think it all plays very well in audiobook form, if you're looking to check it out before the move comes out.

I’m almost through four seasons of BREAKING BAD and my only complaint is that the show is really bad about letting you know how much time has passed between events. Is it 3 months? Is it 7 years? No way of knowing!

Let’s Go Full Rockies And Punt Pitching Entirely! | Baseball Prospectus Are you ready to bet your whole fantasy season on Joey Cantillo?

Zero-RB is a strategy in fantasy football, so I decided to try to go zero-pitcher and see how it would work out.

My latest for @baseballprospectus.com where I go full Rockies and punt pitching.

it's just funny to remember that Eury Perez, who debuted in 2023, is younger than Nolan McLean, Bubba Chandler, Andrew Painter, Payton Tolle, and basically every prospect you are excited about for 2026.

okay did he update it when strider was chased in his second inning by the Blue Jays C-minus squad or when his velocity was down to 94.1 in his third?
