What the actual fuck? I really enjoyed Anderson. I worked just a few blocks from Edison Field in 2002. I literally watched the Angels win the World Series while at Disneyland.

Curious how ABS is working? This is an interesting read on the numbers: diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/...

Mason Miller has broken baseball. He has a negative FIP. No, for reals. www.fangraphs.com/players/maso...

you won't believe this one small trick to fix the orioles' city connects

every word in this sentence is a fresh, new surprise you don't see coming

I don’t use next door, but they occasionally send me emails that remind my why I don’t use next door

Editing a piece, and had to double-check to confirm that Benito Santiago played for the Royals... in 2004. Dude.

A visual representation of MLB's *brilliant* idea to have virtually no back-to-back games after Opening Day. Just a massive unforced error, yet they do it almost every year.

1. Twins/Brewers 3. Padres 4. Savannah Bananas

i don't cheer against players, but the moment Cooper Pratt slumps, i'm busting out a "prattfall" headline

william contreras this season

has baseball ever considered a buddy comedy with paul skenes and mike trout

it's weird that mlb network isn't talking about the minnesota twins, because neither are twins fans

brutallllll

It is so frustrating how much of my brain space has to be dedicated to combating spambots and bad actors. Get a life, you fucking losers.

Started watching Succession, and I don't think I'm going to make it long. I find myself cheering for the fire. Literally any fire. I may start the fire. Fuck these people, this shit is awful.

This is an absolutely brilliant read grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/...

holy shit this is an ugly read arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Officially starting a new thing... I teased it on Microbrew with JR a couple weeks ago, but I have a Patreon out *now*, called Backfield Brew. I'm going to try to put everything you need to know in this thread, but don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have! patreon.com/BackfieldBre...

i'm starting to suspect these guys might be really good at baseball

what happens when I sneeze while typing my name

I hate those goddamned Canada hats so much I had to do this. It took eight minutes to create this.

Huh. I just noticed that Bert Blyleven put up a 6.0 rWAR season with the Angels at age 38. That's kinda crazy.

"why can I not find a photo of this brewers prospect" he says as he types "cameron crow" over and over again in the search bar

My wife and I just had a very important conversation and, after long deliberation, we've both concluded that Orlando is the worst city with a major sports franchise. Columbus Ohio and Green Bay can now celebrate

we're all winners in this great britain-mexico game, as we get to see those fantastic uniforms

I don't complain about UI changes, or updates to software. It's part of the organic life of the apps we use. With that said, macOS 26 is the worst Apple OS I've used in a long time. It's buggy af and absolutely CONSUMES resources. What the fuck were they thinking

canada's wbc hats are terrible which is doubly sad, because you can't go wrong with a white maple leaf over a red background, but they went and garbaged it up

if there was ever a use for this gif, here it is

i want this hat, but without all the spring training garbage on it brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/...

these olympic gold medal hockey games are living up to their billings holy moly

baseball-reference tweaked its layout and it damned near gave me a seizure, i've grown so accustomed to the old layout

I’m in Atlanta and in my giant hotel a young girls’ dance competition is happening. I’m basically surrounded by everything I hate about this country; these people are gross, this is gross, I hateeeeeeee it

I couldn’t remember the name of the skeleton event so I’ve convinced my eight year old it’s called “extreme sledding”

has anyone else ever noticed how close "ESPN" is to being an abbreviation for "enshittification"?

It's funny how late-career players so drastically impact how we remember those players. For example, from 1984 to 1989, Tony Gwynn stole 206 bases.

it's 2026, right? www.freep.com/story/sports...

and democrats wonder why they lose all the fucking time

People can (rightfully) trash AI when it's used to create what *should* be human-generated content, but it's really good at some of the worst shit people have to do. Spent the day writing prompts so that AI tallies how much to pay our contributors, leaving me open to do... literally anything else.

Catherine O'Hara died? Oh fuck off, world

Prime's ad frequency in Fallout is basically at broadcast network levels. Yet more enshittification from one of the worst offenders.

it's really sad that i see something like this and my first thought is "a rogue staffer got hold of chuck's twitter account!"

objectively, it's pretty funny that dhs invaded Minnesota on the pretense that we are uncooperative oh boy, that didn't go great for them

This country needs to keep up this anger because it's terrible about following through on putting bastards in jail for political crimes. One of the biggest mistakes this country made in its history was not cutting the testicles off every fucking slaveholder in the south after the war.

me reading my inbox today as it's flooded by whiny snowflakes crying about us "getting political"

Twins Daily replaced its front page with an ICE Out message today, and my inbox is exactly what you expect it would be

This is why I stopped taking the Hall of Fame seriously ages ago. Sure, vote for a guy linked to several gross scandals, but GOD FORBID do not vote for anyone who stuck a needle in their own butt. It's borderline incomprehensible. The BBWAA is such a fucking circle jerk.

white conservatives today
