Bad luck for Montgomery there. Holy crap is Carrasco terrible. Insane to me the Braves have him on their roster.

Nice of the Braves to punt on a game with the lead. I can’t believe Carrasco is still getting work. He’s been totally washed up for years.

It isn't even remotely interesting in terms of Dybantsa. The Wizards would laugh in the Bulls face at that trade offer. The Wizards just traded for Davis. They aren't going to hurt the value of the #1 pick to move him.

Barring injuries it is hard to see anyone other than the Spurs or Thunder winning the title the next few years. Both teams are young and loaded. The Spurs lottery luck going back to Robinson in 87 is just absolutely ridiculous. They have never had the best lotto odds but have won the lotto 3 times, twice with generational talents in Duncan and Wemby and one time a guy probably just a bit below that in David Robinson but still a clear cut #1 and hall of famer. Then two other times right after getting Wemby they move up and land Castle and Harper. Props to them on Castle since that draft sucked and they made the right pick but getting a no brainer stud like Harper to pair with those two because Wemby had the blood clots last year (similar to getting Duncan because Robinson got hurt) is off the charts good luck. Obviously the Spurs have made a lot of other good moves over the years (Ginobili, Parker, Leonard, etc.) but their run as such a good franchise is built almost entirely on lotto luck.

I'd say he processes the game well and has really good ball skills for a defensive player (initially walked on as a wide receiver). Not particularly fast for his size would be the knock on him.

This Rays team has so many bad pitchers. I don’t understand how they are winning games.

Quero is pretty much the worst player in MLB right now

Mayo really just doesn’t seem to have any real talent. Looks like a classic AAAA player to me.

These Orioles at bats are insane. Smith really struggling to throw the ball in the zone and all these guys are going up there chasing constantly.

4 walks and a HBP in less than 2 innings is kind of a problem lol

Smith command has been really bad today. Thankfully the Orioles have been chasing everything.

Not missing any bats even when well ahead in the account.

Bad BABIP luck this inning but also too many missed spots and this is why you have to miss some bats.

I don’t even see any real talent.

Yep, there is mountains of evidence that sports stadiums just do not bring in jobs and the jobs they do bring in are often seasonal low paying jobs. And in the case of Arlington Heights, I wouldn't be surprised if they do build an entertainment district if it actually shifts some revenue away from downtown Arlington Heights (in addition to other towns as well).

They aren't a great defensive team even at 100% but they were down 2 starters (and their best 2 defenders) last night.

Eh, everyone in that sport says this isn't totally uncommon and she was one of the best performing athletes in each training run. And the 5th ranked USA downhill skier doesn't even have a remote chance at placing in the medals (probably wouldn't even finish top 20).

All groups will be. Expanded world cup has made the group stage pretty stupid. 8 of the 12 third place teams from each group make it to the knockout round as well.

He wasn’t until after Caleb released the ball.

These committees are hot garbage at picking hall of famers.

Yep, absolutely zero chance a super star wants to come to this trash organization. I’m a former season ticket holder that hasn’t been to a game in 7 years and won’t go again anytime soon.

Unlike the Booser trade where they stupidly gave up a live arm for a bum, I don’t care about this one since I don’t think Hernandez does anything. But Murphy’s ERA this past season was purely reliever small sample size luck. K rate wasn’t good for a reliever and he had a high walk rate.

Zaccheus have money on the Giants?

Williams played an awesome first half. Everyone else sucked

Yep, there are a lot of players better than Kent that are not in the Hall of Fame. Bobby Grinch and Willie Randolph at 2b are both much better. And while I know there are no direct links to steroids for Kent, all of his big seasons coming from age 30 on in the middle of the steroids era is suspicious (although I think he basically got easy pitches to hit because everyone was so scared of Bonds).
