According to BA, Max Anderson has looked very good defensively at 3b, and will probably win the MVP. He should be the 3b for the Tigers next year.

so the left side of the Tigers infield will be 2 rookies by July, and they will still challenge for a playoff spot?

its a win, and no one, include Cade, thinks that last night's formula should ever be repeated

they were content to take the loss, but the Wizards are pure garbage

This does not bode well for John Morton.  

obviously, something has been off all season.

Ben Johnson was with the team for 3 years, include a half year as passing game coordinator (quasi offensive coordinator), before getting the coordinator job. He knew these guys and how to use these guys.

Maybe Morton will be better in 2026? the problem is, he may not have/understand the mixture of ground & pound and aggressive play calling that Dan likes. And they do not have time to wait for him to get up to speed.

Convicted felon and serial rapist swears in new military recruits, getting them to defend something called the Consti-Lu-tion, while getting booed by real Americans, which Fox edited out of their coverage.

A healthy Kim makes a lot of sense, IF his repaired shoulder will allow him to play SS and 3B. If not, he just does not fit.

He declined a $16M option. FG has him at 2/26, and crowd source at 3/45.

Bradley Beal is averaging 20 MPG and 7 PPG so far this season.  

Beal returned to Phoenix, and showed them what they are missing after they dumped him with one of the biggest recent buyouts.

with Harden and Kawhi out, Beal stepped up with 2-14 shooting and 2 turnovers

glasses!?!?!?!?!?!?

pedo idiot

for those trying to twist multiple wins into some double secret probation loss:

when you run a candidate, they have a chance to win

cannot find the exact quote, but anyone who bends the knee to the Orange Pedo Turd now,

does so because they WANT to, not because they have to

note to politicians, companies, universities, the media - the Orange Pedo Turd is incredibly unpopular with normal humans

 And then move on to find a better 3rd base option than what we have. Suarez? He may have "only" hit 16 home runs after being traded but he still hit 49 home runs.

cannot preach control the zone to the organization while having your 3/4 hitters K 400 times

11 second knife twist for Cuomo

not surprised at all that Spanberger won, but an easy 10+ win, with a clean sweep with both LT Gov and AG, and a super majority in the House of Delegates, and every county moving Blue - that's an ass kicking.

Looks like the entire county has one message: F*** Off MAGA!

Yup. This is such a stock pro forma denial from Trump it isn't even worth talking about. But it is one of Trump's most interesting techniques. He has figured out that appearing dumb only hurts him with people that don't vote for him anyway, and he's shameless enough not to care how dumb he appears to his non-supporters. It turns out to a be lethal combination.

Aggressively Ignorant.

Athletic writer Tim Britton projecting  Flaherty receiving a 4 year $78 million dollar package. Putting him between Edwardo Rodriguez and John Gray's pay....

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6774254/2025/11/04/mlb-free-agent-contract-projections/

It just seems a bit steep for me...

hmm. that could happen, I suppose

he seems to be taking the Over for all of these deals, which might be correct

Dylan Cease at 6 years, $174 million? yikes

Bregman at 6 years, $171 million, makes sense

I do not think Pete Alonso gets 5 years, $140 million

Michael King at 3/75 I would support

Edit: he has Torres at 3 years, $48 million, which would mean no 1st round comp pick

I’d be ok with ending the Morton experiment today. I think he’s shown he’s just not good enough to be in charge of an offense like this and he is holding them back.

so who calls the plays than? Dan Campbell? Brunell? Montgomery?

wonder if a Dingler extension is on the table? he started a bit late; he is 27; 5 more years of control has him hitting FA at 32 in 2031. catchers take a beating so who knows where the bat is then. 7-year deal buys out 2 FA years and sets him up for life

If the Tigers win the WS, I like their chances of extending him. If not, then not. So odds are, what, 15%

if they win the 2026 WS, it would be much, much easier for both sides to move on

I don't think I would ever see a team hit with injuries like the 2024 Lions, but this Commanders team probably has it even worse
