They're talking about Wrigley like it's actively suppressing homers this year, and I hate to be the guy who checks Savant right after hearing that, but

X doing what needs to be done (not hitting the ball near PCA)

if they don't let tarik skubal throw a vintage 130 pitch complete game while he's throwing 101 they should have to sell the team and move it to nashville

what if they made the entire guy out of @jonhendren.com 's shoes

I can't tell how much of this is Skubal The Best and how much of it is It's The Guardians

RETWEET BY SHAMS: Napheesa Collier’s full statement today, where she challenged Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and the WNBA with directness and stunning detail we rarely hear from active players. Worth listening to every word. [First 2:57 of 4:23 clip posted] x.com/malika_andre...

I do appreciate that Skubal had an immediate "oh my god oh no" reaction to hitting Fry in the face, and then going to the hospital after to see him was even better. Sometimes a pitcher clearly injures a hitter and his face says "and I'd do it again"

I just looked at the Guardians "batting order positions" splits for 2025 and this team is either going to somehow lose the Wild Card Series in one game or get to the World Series. We are playing with forces we do not understand

if we want bluesky to have the oft-invoked "juice", i need baseball posters to step up this postseason. none of this namby-pamby "we lost but i like your team and im rooting for yall" reddit crap. i wanna see bloodlust and vendettas. i wanna see death threats. i wanna see feral, ape-like hooting

my reaction to Manny Machado not being happy about being asked a question by a reporter is that at least he didn't go to Charlie Kirk's funeral

OK Bluesky friends. Use the code “BSTariffRefund” on checkout to save 15%. Let me explain. So, since the new shipping restrictions and tariffs went into effect my sales have fallen off a cliff. And in the last 2 weeks I have received only a single order. (1/5)

I made a tier list of Bugs Bunny's enemies by power/threat scale

god willing, in a few years, we'll be in a golden age of ironic 'couldn't have happened to a nicer guy' drops

If you’re a Sims player, modder, or make videos/art/anything primarily around Sims, I’d like to chat about your feelings on EA’s private acquisition. My DMs are open here, can also be reached by email in bio or exal.04 on Signal

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

Good morning, I covered the reported frustration of the Pirates players with the organization, why the Mets collapse is funny, sure, but ultimately just part of the process, and also a whole lot of writing I've done in September.

please enjoy my photo choice on this story I wrote yesterday

I've been meaning to get to these, anyone in the know care to tell me where I should be starting so I can aim my purchases in that/those directions

it can be kind of hard to forget with a lot of game music becoming oversaturated on the internet - but people forget how niche of a position it was even in the recent past to openly state that videogame music was actually not totally disposable and worth taking seriously as music

Capping off my month of Playstation 30th anniversary coverage with R4: Ridge Racer Type 4. It's the last of the series released on the original Playstation, the console that was as successful out of the gate as it was because Namco brought Ridge Racer to the launch party in the first place.

Barry Bonds was thrown precisely 149 strikes in 2002 and connected with every single one of them for either a base hit or a home run.

The bees have discovered Brutalism

i don't mean to single out baseball fans here, because you see this in lots of fan communities, but in certain corners people talk as though baseball is real. they think all the players are real people and the stadiums are places you can actually visit. to each their own, but that cannot be healthy

new recession indicator just dropped

the person asking for a long-form read on why grocery stores in the 90s all sold lobsters doesn't have replies on, so I can't just say "there wasn't as much food regulation and there were more lobsters being caught before climate changed further destroyed their habitats"

Me and my friends killing that thing with hammers, only it’s a five minute news video with no attached article

the Mets (will spend whatever) seem like the right team to bet on Alonso continuing to mash since they can work around it if he craters at 34 or 35 or whatever, and he hasn't even shifted over to DH yet or anything, but that's a tough one to figure out long-term more generally

are the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette workers still striking?

Aaron Judge just posted a 215 OPS+. That's his third time topping 200. (Only 4 AL/NL hitters ever with more.) It's the 4th-best righty batter season ever. It gives him two of the top four, and three of the top eight. stathead.com/tiny/0SA1J Sometimes i feel like we underrate him somehow?

It is actually peak absurdity that we still have people arguing that voters should bend to the positions of their political representatives instead of the other way around.

Wife brought her 100 year old film camera to that pirates game from a few weeks ago and she got this shot that's just perfect

I love whenever Kimimi writes about something I want to play that I simply do not have a setup ready to play.

man it was bad enough when the news was just PIF, Silver Laker is involved, too?

I also still think the more rigorous schedule, lack of rest, and small roster size are the BIGGEST contributor to the increase in injuries we've seen this season. Reffing is bad but if we want to take better care of players, schedule & roster size need to be addressed too.

ok but it's a hard correlation to prove bc people aren't saying that players got injured on plays that should have been called a foul, but that the lack of foul calls means increased physicality overall and so people are more likely to be hurt in general

trails FC remake is essential because of the constant stream of agonized joshua faces that did not exist the same way in the original

I've made it to Grancel Castle, and Joshua is not thrilled about it.

Al Horford noooo

Listening to Brain Salad Surgery again

The Guardians clinching a postseason spot on a walk-off HBP is way too on the nose. What a goofy season. If this is what it takes for José Ramírez to get some shine, though, then so it goes.

does anyone know if there are any sites still looking for a reviewer for demonschool? boosts would be appreciated! 💜

Mets fans mad at the Brewers is just misdirected anger don't take it personally, Milwaukee

The Rockies lost their 118th, just one more L Colorado you can do it be top-3 worst season do it

College football is truly incredible though
