I just saw a stat showing that there have been more Americans killed in day to day gun events since 1968 than have been killed in all the US wars ever. It sounded fake to me, but after looking at it, it seems to be true. About 1.4 million killed in wars, about 1.5 million killed in other events involving guns. There was another Mass shooting in Texas today.

Which recession happened under Coolidge's watch? The economy was great during most of the 20s and wasn't he done before the depression started?

yeah, I don't know how a broadcaster makes that mistake. He is Duane Kuiper's brother and I think he's a professional bradcaster as opposed to an ex-jock. He did say it while discussing his trip to the Negro Leagues musuem, so I don't think he was being deliberately disrespectful. He apologized for it rather than acting like an ignorant person complaining that "Blacks get to use that word, so why not us?".

Rental pitchers sell better at the deadline than hitters. I think they can get something decent.

The season is looking a lot like 2021 with the slow start followed by a lot wins in close games led by a surprsingly strong bullpen and timely hitting. They played over their heads in 2021. This year, they don't seem to be. I don't think they are hitting up to their potential and are still hanging in there. That is a good sign.

It's free, but it's not baseball. I have turned it off and will rely on you guys to keep me up-to-date.

I doubt he'll lose his job. He's probablity an idiot like Jack Morris who doesn't know better. He'll get warned about it and apologize. As long as he doesn't double down and start talkng about Woke and cancel culture and MLB fascism, he should be OK.

6 games in 5 days and they don't want someone going on 3 days rest.

Castellanos is having a good year though.

Maybin is pretty good, but I prefer him on TV. He doesn't have the right cadence for radio. I would like to see a permanent Dickerson and Petry pairing on radio. On TV, I'd like to see Maybin and a professional broadcaster other than Shep.

Nothing is ever 100%. If there is a great pitcher available and no strong position players around at your pick, then go with the pitcher. However, you can usually get a talented position player with the 3rd pick and that appears to be the case this year.

You have to consider that the poster to whom you are responding most likely would be disappointed to hear that Dump was not interested in him under any circumstances.

Dump doubles down on the Hollywood Access Tape. He actually thinks he can assault any woman he wants. And his followers have no problem with this.

Allen's career OPS+ was 156 which is 19th all-time. His career up to age 33 was basically the same as Miguel Cabrera, but all you hear about is how much of a problem he was.

**** Allen is getting disrespected again. You can't even type his name now.

Pitchers, in general, tend to have bad things happen to them.

I was neutral on McKinstry when they got him. I didn't think he'd do much, but they didn't give up anything to get him. His first month was good. Vierling, Rogers and McKinstry have been solid additions so far.

and 4 is semi-retired in honor of Bobby Higginson.

The Tigers have the highest minimum by far (7).

The Republicans had their golden opportuntity to lower the debt when they controlled the Presidency and both houses iof Congress for two years. They failed, because they are no more interested in reducing the debt than Democrarts.

It looks that way...but the second game has probably been their best of the year.

Scherzer gets electrocuted.

I like 68 and 84 nostalgia. Old guys that are still playing is not nostalgia yet.

I just looked it up. He has Addison's Disease. Interestingly, JFK had it too, although it may not have progressed so much before his life ended.

I saw Kennedy Jr speak for the first time yesterday (interview on CNN) and I was surprised to learn that he's a terrible speaker. He has a bad voice and isn't very glib. That won't help him.
