It is this yes. When he gets frustrated he relies on his sinking changeup and slider. But he has never thrown those for strikes; now that his velocity is down and the fastball isn’t a threat hitters lay off of those. So even if he gets ahead he often easily works to being behind batters.

If make the playoffs then Diaz should get MVP. Traditional advanced metrics won’t tell the tale here because so much of his work has come down to the margin he has had to work with. The current WAR leader is Mookie Betts at 8.1. Which is amazing. But with (just about) any other closer the Mariners would have lost ~5-12…

Plenty. Though it would be tough to get into here due to time/space constraints. The gist of the argument would be that

But they’re not. The right is not making these attacks in good faith. They do not care what she said except as a medium to attack her career. They aren’t offended because she made fun of white people (in like, the most inoffensive way possible) without being hateful or using slurs. They’re just trying to push the…

It is highly dependent on where you live. Because some states and localities enforce their agreements with carrier in order to keep those natural monopolies from exploiting their position.

Seattle already does this. Its why the Mariners are still here.

This is actually a fairly city friendly deal. The $180M was from the original deal and isn’t a new demand or something unknown. Its just... how things were shaking out because the city owns the stadium it is required to put up some (but not most) of the continuing capital fund.

A note on this section “Pennsylvania voters complained that the ES&S machines were changing or “flipping” votes.”

I did not say that the Republicans “make appeals to centrism”; i said that the right integrates its rightward parties(like libertarians), while democratic leftward parties refuse this integration and that is why they, and the nation, has been pushed to the right.

To expand on Publius. Besides his agitating for unions (which, while HamNo is dumb is still a good thing) HamNo is precisely the creature that democrats have been fighting for years because they’re bad for the nation and push it to the right.

Nah, that is a good tackle. Head up hits with the shoulder

Additionally the decision to fine teams which have players kneel could be an enforcement mechanism for said collusion.

Rum and Whiskey. Vanilla is a common flavor profile in both so its likely to be palatable.

Absent Nolans comments you would not be able to tell at all. The shots in the video are not particularly visually similar in framing or shot style.

He is begging

Its a wing. I don’t mean “it has wings” i mean the actual object is a wing. Its the same phenomena that will pull a car off the ground that is going too fast. The effect is more significant the closer to the ground you are, the air is compressed between the body of the aircraft and the ground. “Ekranoplan” or “Ground…

Sure that is what the umpire said. But that is not what the rule states.

When a third strike is dropped the runner at home may advance to first base(if not occupied). A “strike only” means that the runner may not advance and so is automatically out.

He isn’t any closer than anyone else. The interference was almost intentional from the cubs batter, the result of a very uncommon swing which brings the bat down far further back than others.

Purchasing currency in any form is not an investment. It is speculation.
