"macroscopic tunneling" winning the physics Nobel is a HUGE affirmation for my quantum hamsters project, btw

forgive me for not investigating this much, but a cursory look at Dalton Varsho's seasonal WAR for the last few years is confounding. any insights from blue jay and/or baseball bluesky?

when is the last time the Yankees had a "fun" team, in your mind? I don't mean great or good, I mean fun.

Je me souviens

I love how un-fun the Yankees are... they're so good at being the least fun team in baseball. Love that for them

The Brewers are seemingly quite good by a lot of measures but there's no way you'd know this from baseball media Underdog doesn't quite describe.... they're like an infradog, imperceptible within MLB discourse

This might be my favorite card I've ever seen, so I bought it. 1 of 8. This October is the 50th anniversary of this home run of what many call the greatest WS ever. You can see this WS on my tribute site Spac3m7n.com. ⚾️💙 #MLB #baseball #TonyPerez #BillLee

can anyone explain "The Mets" , like in baseball terms? thx

Though I don’t love it, I have to acknowledge I think Aaron Judge should be the AL MVP. I’ve heard a lot about how # of HRs actually shouldn’t matter for MVP (anymore), and good, we need to get over that. But it’s still noteworthy. For example, he got just 1 less than Shohei Ohtani. Amazing!

Do not doubt the cosmic influence of an MM-named baseball player

MLB with this Microsoft Word doc (are the interns only there during the regular season?):

Controversial baseball take, but I think Nick Kurtz should be getting about 1/4000th of the amount of attention that Judge and Raleigh are getting

Intrusive thoughts

??? 30 SB ???

The world seems increasingly menacing and I am often very sad and feel very detached. A feeling of belonging, anywhere … I miss it.

This looks like the result of one of those ChatGPT research papers.. you feed it a bunch of data about baseball games and then you ask it to model the field and you get ... Brännboll, from Sweden

the thing about Oklahoma City is that it did briefly instigate a conversation about right wing violence - a daycare was vaporized, back when killing children mattered to us. then McVeigh was executed in Summer of 2001, and something else happened right after that made it easy to forget, so we did.

Guess the baseball player. A pitcher, post-season batting: 3 PAs total 1.000 - BA 1.000 - OBP 1.667 - SLG 2.667 - OPS

Brady Anderson looks exactly the same … the sideburns 😭😭😭 Rollerblading is miraculous

Doctor I trust more than RFK Jr. Even after last night.

I’ve learned from @gaijinbaseball.bsky.social that Davey Johnson was in the hole when both Hank Aaron and Sadaharu Oh passed Babe Ruth for HRs. What a crazy bit of baseball trivia.

There is a whole world of buttons that you can purchase, with some fairly straightforward hookups to computers and arduino type things. I know this because I made museum exhibits, glorified pushbutton machines.

Ohtani being on the Dodgers is not the best for me, personally,

‘These teams haven’t played in a decade’ is a legit cool moment! ‘These teams haven’t played since e August’ okay, dude

Dodgers playing the Orioles is just weird, man. Interleague play makes a really good case for how a slippery slope isn’t always a fallacy. I do not love it.

Here’s another one: Some guys you may have forgotten played in the 21st century @immaculategrid.com

AL MVP race is heating up... your move, Big Dumper

Quick brown foxes and sphinx-loving jackdaws CANCELLED because of woke. ?? wtf, tho?? if there’s one place to be zany and loquacious with some bon-vivant words and mingle with the Goth Letters, it is here

Hader is known for making gross homophobic comments on twitter when he was with the Brewers. Has he made amends for them? I'm not the one to make that call, but he has quietly been showing up and doing work with LGBTQ organizations since, and I think that's important to note, too.

Astros closer Josh Hader has supported and done work with Covenant House. They're incredible and do great work with LGBTQ homeless youth here in Houston ⬇️

this is such a goofy film but Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift are jaw-dropping... they could sell me anything on a platter

Montgomery Clift was such a compelling screen presence.

do you guys know how much I love Shohei Ohtani and his dumb Kramer subplots

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.

Imagine explaining this to Rube Waddell

Why aren't the Pittsburgh Pirates called "the Stealers"? like pillaging??

Only since expansion player I could find who had more 500 PA .300 seasons than Segui and wasn’t an All Star. www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/st...

From the NotGaetti NEPTA Look how many .300 seasons David Segui has. lol what! www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/se...

4am experiments with ChatGPT. Notice how confidently it gives examples as though they are “known” and “accepted” allegories. It just yaps. chatgpt.com/s/t_688f185e... @jimbaggott.bsky.social

Ok.

Whoops
