Plus, Treinen is having a lights out season, as well, on a team that also desperately needs his contributions. It won’t go to a closer when there are Sale’s and Bauer’s pitching the way they are. 

Just the author of the article.

Hopefully this comment takes off.

@catlady ... get a cat diffuser. It really helps calm them down. If that doesn’t work...

This is so good.

The Astros lost app. 150 more games than the Dodgers over that time frame. Whatever, it isn’t what it is, and the Astros are in a great position, but it took some brutal seasons to get there. There’s nothing wrong with spending money and fielding a good team.

They didn’t tho... their payroll is so low bc they have so many rookies and they have so many rookies that are superstars bc they tanked for ~6 seasons. Yea, the Dodgers spent more money, but that’s not really the whole story.

The Astros lost 100+ games each season from 2011-2013. They were under .500 in 2009, 2010, and 2014, as well. Their payroll is so small bc they lost for so long that they stockpiled a (gloriously) capable farm system. It’s certainly one way to win... the Cubs did something similar. Don’t kid yourself that it’s more…

Ugh... I hadn’t thought of that.

I mean, Gardner is making $13 bills, but yes, a lot of their best contributors are their youngest guys.

Yea. He’s absolutely worth a long listen. Gifted song writer and musician. The most recent album (the Nashville Sound) is his best / most accessible yet. Anyway, hope you like.

Posted elsewhere, but have you listened to ‘Chaos and Clothes’ by Jason Isbell yet? He wrote it about their relationship.

Anyone who hasn’t listens to Jason Isbell’s fantastic new album, The Nashville Sound, should stop what they’re doing right now and give it a whirl. But one song on the album, Chaos and Clothes, is a song Isbell wrote for Ryan Adams about his divorce. I believe they are close bc Ryan helped get Jason into rehab years…

This headline sucks. No one cares about the league specific records, and the MLB record is either 21 or 26, so this isn’t a record-breaking win. Unless you’re talking about the AL record, which no one cares about.

LION?!?

LION?!?

Would it kill you to explain WTF “shoot” means in this context? Is this supposed to be something casual readers would have any possibility of understanding?

Yea, I misread your comment. Carry on.

Right... bc hockey is the one sport that has their fist fights down to the bare minimum?? 

lol

WOW... that’s some odious shit he said... (initial email and follow up texts). Glad she went public.
