He is boring because he is pretty good at every aspect of the game, but not great at any one thing. The sum result is an average player and an average player is a good player.

This is an intresting topic to me because every year I show my students how to make a life expectancy chart in Stata from 1900 forward and then have them discuss the results. One notable pattern is that the gap between women and men has increased since the 1940s. One theory is that women are taking care of themselves better - better diets, fewer risk behaviors and regular doctor appointments.

Men went fro 46 to 75.

What he said makes perfect sense. Go for the playoffs, but make sure you've got a team that can win before adding a closer. The closer is the last piece. You can add one at the deadline if things go well.

Wait...You want to trade Olson. McGonigle and Briceno for an injury prone reliever who has never pitched 50 innings in a season? I know he's good but that's the kind of haul you get for an ace. And I don't think you are stupid, in general. I think this proposal is stupid.

He's not trading a top prospect for a reliever. That would be stupid.

Yesterday, there was a picture going around showing Walz in a pose that they thought made him look effeminate. They are really desperate.

The average life expectancy of a female born in 1900: 48 years The average today:79 years. Is that normal?

The new Willie Mays. That would help.

Harris's speech was brilliant. I really was not expecting it to be so good. I got nervous the first minute or two because she sounded a little flakey, but after that she took off. She showed strength and normalcy, there was no sign of any radicalism and she hit all the right points. She nailed it. You know I don't like politics the way most of you do. I am generally skeptical even of the Democrats, but I've heard some great speeches the last few nights. I feel a lot better now than I did a few weeks ago.

Trump has never thanked anyone in his life. Just doesn't understand.

This guy is not happy.

I doubt she makes a difference, but 2024 is very different from 2016. Trump was a relative unknown in 2016. He is now the most hated person in America and I think any functional human being can beat him. There isn't going to be any land slide, but If the voter turnout is good again, Trump is done.

I do lead a sheltered life. It's all family, work and outdoor activities...and baseball.

I don't know them either! What position do they play?

I don't know anything about her, just know the name. I just listened to a couple of her songs to see if they sounded familiar. I'm not a fan of what I heard, but if she can help beat Trump, I'm a fan!

Joey Wince is not coming back next year. Is he?

Tim Walz seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't let them get away with it.

Walz gave the best speech I've heard in years. He's going to be a political star for years.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw the headline was MAGAts.

Today, he went into the audience to check on a cult member who had a "medical emergency". It definitely looked like a staged response to Harris's response to a medical emergency earlier this week. He is the biggest baby ever.

It makes that he would drop out. He is only running to take votes away from the Dem candidate and it's not working.

That's what I said when I was young. Now, I'd rather go back to the past.

FINALLY, someone comes out and admits tha he mocks his supporters. We all knew that was the case all along.
