Well, that was uncomfortably close.

He was outed as an Obama economic advisor on the chyron, so viewers can safely ignore and/or laugh at him.

Kenta Mazda solidifying his role as garbage time guy.

Kenta Maeda in for some garbage time.

TBF, the political environment is such that run-of-the-mill retail investors like us can’t really make reasonably-informed investing decisions and expect conditions to not be suddenly changed willy-nilly at the whim of a single individual who has designs on mad royalty. Things just are nothing like normal, even in terms of recent history.

That’ll make someone here go open MAGA … 😉

Rage “Know Your Enemy” for me.

Holy shirt, Riley!

I am frankly surprised that Holton is being brought in to the middle of games versus toward the end. I thought he had a good shot at the closer’s role after last season’s efforts.

That’s fair, although analytics could be at the root of some disagreements he might have had with other in the front office in terms of whom to sign or lock up, how much to offer, etc. This, in addition to other possible explanations such as burnout and racism.

I’m sure they’re sold. It’s just that everyone you don’t see in them is inside the nice warm club nibbling on swell food and drinking top shelf drinks. Just as with so many other organizations, the Tigers ae targeting super high net worth individuals and companies at the cost of the terrible optics of all those empty seats on showing up on TV.

Trey Sweeney’s got a little bit of pop.

Dillon Dingler’s walk up song is “Edge of Seventeen”? Is that for his mom?

Oh, Jerome Powell is so ****ing fired for this apostasy.

Here is how red hats on the ground are justifying tariffs. This, from a Facebook post from one of my wife's former high school classmates in small town Wisconsin. One might ask, "Isn't this demonstrably untrue?" Another might answer, "Does that even matter?"

And it's not even an actual defense, since prices on domestic products will rise to fill the new price gap created by dramatic increases in the prices of foreign products. The only thing that might delay that some is a honeymoon period in which domestic products do not rise yet, which will immediately trumpeted as a triumph for the American consumer, and then as soon as the next horror takes over the news cycle, the prices will unceremoniously increase, and then when the media finally notice, Biden policies from years prior will be blamed.

They're laying down in Europe. Can't have them there when our new allies attack and invade.

At least one of these was an unforced purposeful tanking.

Or maybe he wasn’t very good at the way Scott Harris wants to do analytics, which wouldn’t surprise me if it’s true. The timing is kind of interesting, though. Reddit is all in on the scandal angle.

I’ve been out of the game for a long time now so I was not aware of NPS. But I am now. https://zapier.com/blog/nps-net-promoter-score/

And to me, the most baseball aspect of that 35-5 start is how the Tigers went to Seattle and promptly got swept.

I was going off how Dan was calling the game on radio. He had said Colt was so far off second he would have been doubled off anyway, so why not keep going? But I have heard from others Colt’d’ve been nailed at the plate, so I don’t know what Dan was seeing.

The NFL and NBA and their broadcast partners would never allow it. I’d like to see MLB Network air some Caribbean league in-season games. The Puerto Rico season runs November into January. I don’t understand why they don’t do that. I believe games are already televised there, why not just pick up the feed and have a couple of minor league broadcasters call the games from a studio in Secaucus?
