I disagree. You can absolutely navigate the playoffs rotation wise as currently constructed. Three solid starters is more than enough. Of the priorities, I consider a starter well behind elite BP and impact bat.
-
The impact bats certainly don't seem to be there (outside of Suarez, but that ship has sailed), which is unfortunate. We certainly could use one. That and an elite BP arm is what we needed IMO. I'm not all that thrilled about the third/fourth starters that are available (which is what I consider Alcantara at this point), or these donkey relievers we keep signing/trading for.

IMHO, it doesn't. Enjoyed it immensely. I did finally have to read an "explainer" about who is actually related to who on that show. It blew my mind that "Uncle" Jimmy is not actually related to any of the other regular characters.

Shades of Deivi Cruz replied to Tigeraholic1's topic in Game Threads
I've become less enamored with the mix-and-match daily routine of the team. We have a lot more mix and notsomuch match. Trey Sweeney has no business being here right now. Unfortunately, the same can be said for Parker Meadows and Matt Vierling. I still like Zach as a complimentary piece, but the OF outside of Riley is an offensive blackhole. Carpenter coming back will certainly help, but for how long before he is hurt again? Kwan from Cleveland would be fantastic. Suarez obviously as well. Certainly bullpen is a high priority, but I'm also not confident in this offense getting it done in the playoffs. -
Anymore. They did in January though.

You are a brave man for keeping Kahnle on this list, while at the same time extolling the virtue of swing and miss ability.

TLDR: Skubal is a good dude and a great pitcher.

My son and I were two of them. Castro made that really nice catch at the RF fence right in front of us.

Comedy sequels are rarely decent, let alone good, so while I hope Spaceballs 2 is good I'm not actually optimistic that it will be.
-
I am three episodes in on season two of The Rehearsal on HBO/Max. Such a weird show, but I love it. Episode three especially was beyond bizarre (in a great way).

The only legal online betting in Florida is Hard Rock, so FanDuel Florida is probably not eager to drive business to them by displaying odds constantly.

Watching that Yankees/Padres game last night where they tried playing through the rain was painful, and not just because I was watching the Yankees... It looked so miserable. Pivetta was asking for a new ball after every pitch, and he still couldn't keep it from slipping out of his hand. All of that to say, I hope the Tigers don't have to do that.

After I watched Billy Madison with my children for the first time, they both said "now we know where you get 90% of your vocabulary from". LOL! It's hard to have Billy Madison on the list, but not Happy Gilmore, but I also don't want two Sandler movies on the list... I also rewatched Superbad recently, and laughed just as hard as before (although I identify more with the cops than I used to). Spaceballs is another that I have seen countless times, though I'm waffling on including it on my list. I might have to go with Dumb and Dumber and Big Lebowski.

Why can't Riley and Tork be good at the same time? I blame the Toledo Mud Hens bobbleheads. -

I really liked that park. We went to an area bar beforehand and took a shuttle in to avoid parking. Felt a lot like going to Nemo's. -

I believe he started a throwing program about a week ago. I don't know that there have been any updates since. -
The pet peeve thread
Shades of Deivi Cruz replied to Crazy Cat Gentleman's topic in General Discussion
It certainly seems like if the vehicle isn't actively triggering an alert/problem in the diagnostic software they use, they are going to say there is no problem. There have been a couple of things that we have noticed with our Honda Pilot that we mentioned to the dealer on multiple occasions. One was that it would stall out sometimes when you were stopped and the auto-engine idle was engaged. It happened so often that we asked them to go into the system and turn the feature off. They were confused as to why we would ask that, since there wasn't a "problem being reported". -

Most people have probably already signed up if they need it, but just in case. If you want to access it via Amazon Prime, you have to subscribe to FanDuel through Prime. If you have already signed up directly through FanDuel, you can't "connect" it to Prime after the fact.

And? If he's breathing, he has all the same supporters. What happened with Biden has no bearing.

I gotta say, "Magaphone" is fantastic. It's inconceivable to me that there hasn't been one already, to go along with the watches, coins, and everything else that he puts out to take advantage of his sheep.

Musk's Illegal Control of the US Government
Shades of Deivi Cruz replied to romad1's topic in Politics
I still use Twitter, but I am also low engagement. I've never actually posted anything on it and literally have zero followers (I mean, why would anyone follow when I don't post anything...). I just use it to follow some accounts that aren't on BlueSky yet. -

Uh oh, he used the "D" word in his response in a positive way. That guy is toast. -

I literally laugh out loud every time I see one of those things on the road. The most "look at me" but useless vehicle since the Hummer.
