“The orthodoxy about when you can pitch closers is changing, but it’s incredible how slowly.”

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa....Gerber has a Frank and Beans option? What the fuck was that strained beets shit my parents gave me all those years ago?

Actually I want to thank Donald Trump and I think we all should too. Hear me out on this:

Trump over the years have made noise about running for president before. In fact I think every election cycle he makes 1 day of headlines threatening to run and news outlets laugh it off or write/air a fluff piece about the…

This would have been perfectly fine if they had just added the unwritten line of “...to go 3-9” at the end

Completely agree with pushing it back. The Waiver Deadline is August 31 so trades technically don’t have to stop on July 31 (though admittedly with waiver claims/pullbacks trades are a bitter harder to pull off.) I think the easy solution is to split the difference and make the Non-Waiver deadline Aug 15. This gives…

I came across Kitchenette once from a Deadspin post and then forgot about it (sadly) I’ve now rediscovered it and been feverishly reading articles whenever I get a free moment. I love the customer horror stories, but love these great ones too. Would love to see more good posts like these because it makes you feel a…

Actually...and sadly...if you’re a cop and that 5’2” 110lb woman you shot was black you probably wouldn’t go to jail

When do we get the Jim Ross call?

I love sports, but one of the things I hate is the stupid “showing up” unwritten bullshit. If a batter hits a homer I want to see awesome bat flips, if a pitcher gets a huge strikeout I want to see him yell and fire himself up. If a player/team wants to touchdown dance let them. It makes the game more fun when it…

This is probably an incredibly stupid question that was answered a long time ago (and shows my status as a fringe watcher of the sport,) but why isn’t Qatar building dome stadiums that can be climate controlled? University of Phoenix stadium incorporates a dome and still has grass fields they can roll in and roll out…

Which is EXACTLY why the Knicks will sign him to a max deal

I agree, it is foul and causes terrible stomach pain among other things. Just noting the almost non-bites of each item

He took a “bite” of all McDonald’s Dollar Menu items the way a 6 year old takes a “bite” of lima beans

Nothing is there...It’s just that times have become hard for Olan Mills

And then gave Sasser a 7 year contract extention

As awful an owner as Jeffery Loria is...and for my money he’s currently the worst owner in sports...what makes him worse is that he not only completely sabotages his own team repeatedly, but he’s more or less helped to kill the Tampa Rays too. I find it hard to believe Florida Tax Payers (if ever given the chance to…

As a Yankee fan I would love that for him and the team

I should say he’s close done. His fastball tops out at 89 and he’s not near the pitcher he was. Not that he can’t win, but he’s most likely at the end of the home stretch of his career...and I say this liking CC and having a ton of respect for what he did for each of the teams he’s played for. If the Brewers and…

Yes CC is done, but the fact he made it as long as he did with every single team he played for seemingly trying to make his arm fall off is amazing.

Goodell is going to end up being the NFL Nero. He’s already starting to catch it on fire and when it starts to crumble because of his shitty leadership he and the owners will sit by and fiddle.
