Barnhart's hit off Davis would be his first as a RHB since the 2019 season.

Tiger pitching with 'only' 5 K today, but ZERO BB.

LOL- Jack says the one thing you can't do is throw it down the middle, so Soto does exactly that but has enough on it that JD comes up 15ft short.

Victor losing his hat isn't nearly as much fun as Baddoo.

we want MOAR runs!

Miguel actually looks pretty good. He's hitting the ball hard and he's driving off the back leg. Obviously feeling pretty good Hope he can stay healthy.

I think maybe the new guys have been helping.

I agree that the fiscal stimulus the the Dems came in with no doubt helped drive inflation, but my complaint is that the Fed should have been cutting back at the same time so that the stimulus transitioned from monetary to fiscal. There was no reason for the Fed to remain so expansionary once the Fed government shifted into spend mode. It been discussed here before that given the choice, fiscal stimulus is preferable to monetary stimulus on employment and equity grounds anyway.

Barnhardt is a lifetime 700 OPS hitter. He should regress to adequate.

It's not dumb that there is a black out per se, it's dumb that you can't buy your way out of if you want the package of all the games from MLB and your local team. You should be able to buy MLB TV with something like a $3-5 month upcharge and have it include your local team. Everyone could still get paid that way, but MLB and the RSN's are too siloed to work that out. You shouldn't have to pay DirectTV for HSN and 100 channels of other crap just so they can pass that same RSN upcharge to Bally when MLB could do that themselves.

and too many skinny big men.

The record function on DirectTV is really idiosyncratic though - it would be too long to describe all the weird things it does, but bottom line it's too often not what you expect.

Lets the purges begin, what will follow is that Russian society will slide further toward immobility and economic irrelevance.

94 probably sees as much truck traffic as it does in part because i-80 is toll. Put a toll on 94, you'd probably reduce traffic because cross country routes would lose any motivation to ever come north. That would not be a bad thing in most people's view I think! The absence of toll roads in MI has a long (and probably now obsolete) history. Of course the auto-plants didn't want them, and that is probably the biggest reason, but back in the 40's 50's and 60's, when the road nets were being planned but railroads were still a thing, there was an arg that since MI was a peninsula, we had poorer cross state rail connections than other states so it was only 'fair' that we not have toll roads since there were fewer shipping/travel alternatives. That seems a quaint arg today, but I remember it being a pretty stock political talking point when I was young - so that is a little bit of how we got to where we are.

you can turn off location services on an IOS/MACOS device. You would think that would make a difference, but maybe not....Haven't tried it.

I'm guessing you have guessed right.

sure, as long as the VPN was located outside the blackout area. If you are buying VPN service expressly to avoid a sports blackout, that is what you are looking for, but just because it's a VPN doesn't necessarily mean it's somewhere else. My employer runs a VPN I have access to, but it's hosted here. It wouldn't do me any good for watching MLB.

better read would be, "Won't bring stability to Putin's regime"

maybe go to the ticket site and see if you can buy a ticket to the 2nd game?

Bingo.

Jeez, Lee's already written one book, you expect him to write another here?

that was a pretty nice swing on the triple - rotation right down to his feet. That swing was not the Reyes of 2 yrs ago. It remains to be seen if it makes any difference to the bottom line OPS, but he certainly looks like he's giving himself a much better chance at driving the ball now. And Cabrera scored from 1st!

But he'd have to know something about another country to know he said that.

One the scale of issues with a JOTSC, retirement choices are pretty small potatoes on any side. For all we know Kennedy tried to cut such a deal because he was worried about Trump nominating someone crazier. But the fact is that the sitting Judge has no leverage. POTUS can walk away from any kind of understanding once a retirement is announced and the existing judge can't do squat - can't even go public without looking like.....a conniver! So it's a bit of red herring to argue that a retiring judge was very responsible for anything more than his own retirement.
