Livvy Dunne >>>>> Kate Upton.

Skenes is also the Golden Goose for that entire franchise.

It's not escaping my notice that the self-proclaimed Worldwide Leader in Sports™ is advocating a far higher price for the flyover team than for the Los Angeles or New York teams.

Yeah, probably, but the difference between Riley and Julio is so great that the Comerica Park left field alone almost certainly couldn't be enough to explain it.

DRS, OAA, FRV, which ever letters you like, Julio is just better. He positions better, he covers more ground, and he has a better arm. That’s OK, Riley is outhitting Julio by a mile, and the Tigers are ten games better than the M’s.

Julio is a premier defender in all facets. Riley is average-ish. Fangraphs has Riley up on Julio 2.9 to 2.4.

Good thing he's too stupid to know what he's doing. 1 big thing: Trump's early Christmas present Photo Illustration: Allie Carl/Axios. Photo: NurPhoto via Getty Images Christmas shoppers got a gift of sorts from the White House this week when President Trump again paused new tariffs, Axios' Emily Peck writes. The shift should give retailers more time to stockpile goods ahead of the holiday season, potentially pushing some tariff-related price increases to next year. 🗓️ Where it stands: If higher rates do go into effect Aug. 1 — the White House's new deadline — it's likely that consumers won't feel a difference until the new year, Paul Donovan, chief economist at UBS Wealth Management, wrote in a note. 🚢 How it works: Goods en route to the U.S. as late as Aug. 1 should be exempt from additional tariffs, Donovan said. Because it can take as many as six weeks to move ships across the Pacific, some items could arrive as late as mid-September and still be tariffed at the lower rate. Retailers stockpile ahead of the Christmas season — and have been doing so earlier than usual this year to avoid higher tariffs. Go deeper.

Vignettes ads on my iPhone appear about once in every three to five or so clicks. On my iPad, though, I can't recall whether I've seen any at all. Strange because they are supposed to be mirror operating systems, or so I would assume.

Feature not bug

Fun fact: Kevin McGonigle is a 37th over all pick.

When I first saw this I thought, i would definitely take Carroll before Riley. Looking at the records side by side they’re a lot closer than on all fronts that I thought, except running. If Riley can stay off the List, they might end up with really similar careers and shots at the Hall.

At least forecasting works for Ted Cruz since he always seems to go on vacation right before weather disasters strike the state he purportedly represents.

He’s done a hell of a job of setting them all up to either do his bidding or else.

There's no question that Flaherty is having a bad year, but there might be a tiny bit of light coming through the cracks. Flaherty's FIP- is kinder to him than his ERA-; and his fWAR is better than his RA9-WAR. That said, his Statcast and PitchingBot Stuff cards are blue as the sea, dramatically different from last season. I do think Hinch is still a long way from bailing on him, although putting some space between Flaherty and Skubal might be a sign. If he continues at this pace, he might end up being the spot starter in October.

All true. And it's working far better than anyone, possibly except he, could have imagined.
