Peak Marisa Tomei.

Not yet.

Living in China, you get two nightmares in one LONG day/early night. 133 am Almost chose to deliberately sleep through it. Waiting to get all thirty teams collected under ESPN/Disney... Certainly those power franchises don't want an even split over 30 teams when it provides massive well documented financial advantages.

This is how you start a post season series for the Guards. Gavin Williams a strong #2. Then you have Griffin...unless they went with Bibee based on match ups.

It has been reported/rumored about for years....that was the end of both those players with the Guardians/Francona. Tampering??? Drugs at party? Nobody knows except JR and the front office.

It's actually on JR. Minority shareholder's son (since deceased) and friend/s partied with him and Zach Plesac during Covid quarantine in Chicago and something untoward must have gone down. At least to the point Sox were trying to hide or cover it up by signing him three separate times.

in a compromising situation? these fascinations with guys like Clevinger and Pham are bizarro world stuff

Sigh. Just can't ever score that runner from third to save their lives.

Kwan would have had that one...

But he has pretty pedestrian stuff. Better than Adams/Thorpe but not a classic repertoire scouts love. Seems highly unlikely Taylor suddenly is moved out of the pen.

Blue Jays were also one out (and miracles from Yamamoto and Rojas) away from taking down the WS champion Dodgers...a dynastic superfranchise that's a major reason for the impending lockout. The majority of that core is still intact.

I couldn’t take it anymore só started DTF St. Louis. It really sucks when you’re stuck with a loss like that all day and night long and just can’t forget about it by going to sleep. I don’t even think losing Game 3 in 2020 or inevitably falling to the Astros’ machine on the road in 2021 made me that upset. Only the last ten days of 2008…but that had the best ending, ofc, knowing they still weren’t going to win at Tampa without Quentin.

Pham is hitting something like 650 the last three years combined against lefties. Hardly a só called lefty killer like Adell, Jose Ramirez or Grichuk. This can’t possibly be a serious/legitimate big league lineup in the most important game of the season. It’s just not.

WestEddy/Cali back into hiding...preparing a missive about how they are already one year ahead of schedule and all is basically well.

Notice when Vogt utilized Cade Smith yesterday? And still should be available again today, when Sox will have to go with Hicks, for example. If it's even a close game in the later innings...

provocative? adj. inflammatory，aggressive，belligerent，incendiary，defiant n. stimulus，irritant I have always looked at that word as more neutral...like the outfit that Shailene Woodley wore to the Emmy's was quite provocative

“They refer to Yellowstone as ‘the conservative show’ or ‘the Republican show’ or ‘the red-state ‘Game of Thrones,’ ” Sheridan told the Atlantic in 2022. “And I just sit back laughing. I’m like, ‘Really?’ “ “The show’s talking about the displacement of Native Americans and the way Native American women were treated and about corporate greed and the gentrification of the West, and land-grabbing,” he added. “That’s a red-state show?” nypost.com Having watched most of his shows, they do FEEL conservative. Especially the Michael Bay-ish male camera gaze fixed on Ainsley in Landman. That said, his comment at least made me think. Perhaps also because some of his main characters like Stallone, Thornton/Sam Neill and Costner feel like they're pulled directly from the 1950s and 80s...even Zoey Saldana and pretty much everything but the two lesbian Lionesses in that show. The operators themselves come across like a good 'ol boys recruitment video for Navy Seal Team 6.

I think we'll be repeating all off season long that they were just one well executed Taylor slider/curve against Rocchio away from an almost insurmountable in reality 3 1/2 game lead (considering CLE had to finish a game ahead due to Sox 7-5 season series lead with one to go) with just 10-11 games remaining on the schedule for both teams. Didn't expect anything in the postseason...they're clearly not close to TB NY or Boston in talent...but just feels like a terribly cruel twist of fate after leading the division for months and months. Ofc, all White Sox fans shpuld be used to this by now...at least those of us in our 50s. 2005/08 really are the pretty much the lone exceptions.

baseballsavant.comStatcast Expected wOBA, xBA, xSLGBaseball SavantExpected outcome stat is interesting... Vargas 8th in mlb. Antonacci second on the White Sox...then Murakami and Grichuk. Kolson way way down near the bottom for the team. Didn't anticipate Braden actually being ahead of Peters. And Meidroth was pretty low as well.

really would have been 3 1/2 with tiebreaker now 1 1/2 lose next two and technically tied with nine left to go

Brazoban down there as well gave up a run in 4-2 loss

Thorpe 4.1 3 2 2 4 3 0 2.79

Walk him to face Doyle or Braden??? okay that's some strange logic there

Phantom dl for forearm strain/overusage by nym/general ineffectiveness...

WIL he or won't he? Princeton education says no, not if he wants another job in baseball. Quitting on your team with 11 games remaining would be absolutely unforgivable...unless he had a health emergency.
