You ever actually try to read a Passan article, not just some tweet about a player being traded? That guy is functionally illiterate. So-called journalists nowadays read and write at an eighth grade level. Don't even get me started on editors (they don't exist, there's nothing to get started on).

90% of that job is the vibes. if the players are vouching for him, then thats about all she wrote. I’m in.

Pluggers and grinders...more suitable for Peters Antonacci and Meidroth. Would hardly describe Vargas in that fashion.

Seems all the players are crediting Venable for changing the vibe.

He may not know if he’s getting lefties or righties, but he knows people who know, and he knows the people that know are good people.

Sammy Sosa to the Cubs for George Bell was the grand poppy of them all! I can still remember Hawk talking about how great it was to have a “professional hitter” like Bell in the lineup that year.

Certainly a choice to talk about Miguel Vargas like he's just one of their (multiple and likeable) grindy role players rather than a guy whose Savant page is more lit up than a Christmas tree:

that s%*# is awful. if that is what passes for "sports writing" let AI take over. Too many awful fleets of fancy sentence to sentence to even bother, it's just non sense dressed up as some deep s%*#.

Ho hum...AL wins again. That's 23 out of the last 29. Well done guys!

They're practicing for when the Sox win the next 3 Series, and have 7 starters in the next 3 All-Star Games.

Why? In that scenario, if anyone should be sad, it should be Guardians fans.

Did I miss something or did Fox not announce that Peters (until his routine catch) or Muni came into the game defensively before their respective at bats? Ofc, they drooled all over PCA when he entered the game defensively, they wouldn't let us miss that.

“Somehow”? He had half the RBIs and had the game winning hit. I thought Vargas would be a good option also with the only XBH and home run, but let’s not pretend Bellinger didn’t deserve it also.

Vargas goes boom The first homer of the 2026 edition of the All-Star Game belonged to first-time All-Star Miguel Vargas. The burgeoning White Sox slugger launched a no-doubt 433-foot homer off Dodgers starter Justin Wrobleski in the eighth inning to give the AL a little more breathing room after their three-run first inning. It was the third-longest homer in an All-Star Game since Statcast began tracking in 2015, surpassed only by Giancarlo Stanton (457 feet) and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (468 feet). From article on mlb

Boob Nightengale with a nice click bait article about how Peters had to spend the night in the hospital because his wife had to be rushed there. Nightengale is a class act.

It's too bad they never got rid of that GM and VP of baseball operations. Woe is us.

Wilson's supposedly practicing 2,000 - 2,500 shots a day now. He’s going to get better...as long as he maintain that same work ethic and discipline.

The mike on Dylan and strategizing with Smoltz was probably the coolest aspect of the entire game...unfortunately. Elite pitching wins in the post season.

Philly players especially didn't show up for the home crowd 0-5 with 4K for their bats, 3 ER in an inning for their starter

FIFA rigged it...at any rare, it just provides the White Sox more fuel for their overlooked/under appreciated status.

So much for NL dominance...
