The link goes to KTNV’s website, the local news station that named the store in their reporting, and not to the store directly.  You would’ve known that if you actually hovered over the link (you don’t even need to click it) instead of rushing down here to post your disingenuous garbage.

You and I may have disagreed on how good the Stroman trade was, but overall I think the Jays have done a great job overall in July. They’ve taken fliers on interesting upside guys like Font, Kingham, & Brock Stewart, they moved Sogard at the absolute height of his value and get to pick two lottery tickets out of…

The ‘Claw has been a crucial part of my life for the last 2 years and I’m so glad it’s become such a big part of the world.  I first came across it at a music festival in Florida in October that usually runs on PBR - it was a hot Saturday and I needed something other than a usual beer and noticed that this thing…

Perhaps I should have been a little clearer:

Bartolo Colon’s age 39-43 seasons would like a word

BEST FRAUDS IN BASEBALL

Personally, just grant amnesty and a pathway to citizenship for anyone already here. Then zero tolerance going forward. Come in illegally (absent asylum cases of course) or jump your visa and you’re gone.

Bauer’s gotta be careful - that ball flies so fast out of the park in Cincy that he’ll have to be careful not to brain some random pedestrians during his next tantrum.

1 - 78 IP is not a large enough sample size to reach any sound conclusions about a starting pitcher. I can easily find you a 78 inning stretch where Jason Vargas looks like a stud #2 pitcher, or where Blake Snell turns into a 5.00 ERA, 1.2 HR/9 stiff. There’s enough time to notice trends but you’re crazy if you’re…

Again, I can give you a list ten miles long of guys who looked like studs as 18 year olds and flamed out. The BTBS link you gave says SWR ranks admirably amongst “27 pitchers age 18 or younger to pitch at the Low-A level since 2006 (minimum 70 innings)“, which a)screams of small sample size and b)seems odd that of the…

Here’s the issues I have with comparing Paddack to SWR: I can find you a ton of guys who posted similar to SWR’s 11.1:2.0 K:BB ratio in A Ball and never amounted to much of anything. The list of guys who did what Paddack did in 2016 and followed up in 2018 after coming back from TJ surgery is a much much shorter list…

I think this falls apart not just for the reasons others have pointed out, but for the fact that a season and a half of Marcus Stroman =/= half a season of Fernando Rodney. Even if you think SWR is on a similar level to Paddack (a debate it’s hard to back up because SWR doesn’t show the elite stuff that Paddack was in…

I love Howie and will listen to the radio when I’m in the car - but you’re gonna throw Gary, Keith & Ron under the bus like that?

I think it boils down to what is more likely:  Mitch being a big fan of 1940s film noir, or Mitch disingenuously repurposing a phrase progressive use for his own shitty purposes?

even land given to you for free by the government is an asset COM(E)ing IN, hence:  income!

It does bring up one thing that always confuses the hell out of me - why doesn’t the Hall ever seem to take the player’s perspective into it w/r/t the team they represent on their plaque? Sure, Hawk played the most games with the Expos but he won an MVP with the Cubs, and it’s not like he was asking to go in with a…

I think 3 time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl Champion Michael Bennett has a better shot at winning the nomination than this guy

Aw man, Nick has written some amazing articles and his voice was a great one around here.  Can’t wait to see what he gets up to next!

whatever parasitic form of law you practice when you’re talking to your clients that couldn’t afford the better firm and had to settle for you *still* fucking pales in comparison to delivering a state of the union so your anecdotal comparison is still fucking useless shit

You gotta hang in the way way way back usually (unless Mark is doing sound that night cuz his tinnitus is out of control and then *everything* is too damn loud)
