If he walks in free agency, they get a compensatory third round pick. So they must see a contact-year Thomas and a late-third rounder as better than the Cowboy’s second rounder. 

Except all advanced metrics suggest they’re a sub-.500 team (look at Baseball Prospectus’s adjusted standings). Heck, they even have a negative run differential. So the question is whether they’re lucky or good, and mid-July seems too early to give extensions to your manager and GM after just half a season of winning…

Glad that ownership extended both Dipoto and Servais before the inevitable regression to the mean after a hot (and statistically lucky) first half. Keep doing you, M’s. Though if you told me they’d win 90 games at the beginning of the year, I would have been really happy and have assumed they’d make the playoffs.

Um, unagi is always cooked. 

Typical Deadspin making everything about race. Every sentence you have to remind us that he’s White.

About time someone at Ohio State, or the Big Ten for that matter, stood up for the children.

Who am I to argue with a Juris Doctor about the Second Amendment?

Sometimes you’ve just got to cut a man loose.

Just as in Baghdad, the term “Green Zone” is meant to provide participants a false sense of safety.

It’s the second time in a month Brady has walked out when Guerrero’s name comes up, so if he thinks shutting down interviews are going to stop the media from asking about Guerrero, he must not be drinking enough TB12 Electrolytes.

Given his love of Hochuli, I can’t see Kavanaugh closing the gun show loophole anytime soon.

I assume they were interested in finding out who said it originally, so they could get an explanation of what the hell the dumb, racist joke was supposed to even mean.

A late-August/early-September evening at Jingu with a contending Swallows team and a healthy crowd has to be one of my favorite things in Tokyo.

I’m even more shocked that Beto is within two of Cruz in years.

If you go, I’d recommend going to either a rivalry game at Meiji Jingu (Tokyo - Yakult Swallows) or any game at Koshien, where the high school tournament is held (Osaka - Hanshin Tigers). The domed stadiums (like where the Yomiuri Giants play) take a lot out of the atmosphere, even if the fans are really into it.

Just as Mr. Baseball drew it up. 

i feel bad for our country. But this is lukewarm, cardboard textured content.
