Cano has like the 5th biggest MLB contract of all time. He won’t get paid like Harper, Trout or Altuve because he was 31 when he signed his big deal, and those players will be like 5 years younger.

Well, you said Cano was no longer a Yankee but Pedroia got paid by the Sox because he was gritty.

AKA the Derek Jeter special

Lots of good examples of this, so not sure what this one is supposed to mean.

What about his .311/.463/.889 with 15 home runs line in September? Or the fact he played considerably better in the ALCS (.250/.357/.708 with 3 HRs in 28 PAs (11 Ks)) than the ALDS (.050/.208/.100 with 0 HRs in 24 PAs (16 Ks))?

Yes, the classic “start player was actually hurt and that’s why he sucked in the playoffs” routine.

They still seem to like Aaron Judge fine. ‘17 playoff batting:

I don’t think that’s necessarily the logical conclusion. Folks who are pro death penalty generally don’t argue it should be used for all crimes or for all homicides. Anyway, as of now abortion is legal, so its not a crime, and the death penalty is only used for crimes.

From how I read it, the study seems to say that men are much more likely to believe they are smarter than others, whether that’s other men or women (and not comparing themselves to women specifically).

Here’s something to noodle about. What if, perhaps, the questions aren’t actually real but are made up by the person for content, and they’re simply tasked with trying to come up with “controversial” topics that people will click on?

Nah, the Martin Kaymer one is also a multiple skipper. Start the video at 0:35 below:

I get that, but they’re also just like, leaving him at AAA. Something else has to be going on beyond playing games with his arbitration clock, because the whole goal of that is to game the system to get your great young prospects playing cheaply for you for as long as possible. STL doesn’t even seem particularly…

Interesting article, but I’m not sure what the part about the salary is supposed to mean. His salary doesn’t depend on whether he is in the Majors or AAA, so it’s not like STL saves money by sending him to AAA.

This is something that they do every year at the Masters. I’m not sure why it is going viral this year as if its some new amazing thing, but how about from a few years ago when somebody ACTUALLY hit a hole in one?

You can’t even pay $12/month for it. It only costs $9.99 per month, and I don’t think you can even “prepay 2 years into the future” on a month-by-month subscription package.

This will be a tough one to parse because a sports franchise has to be a pretty tough environment for a woman in general, and I don’t most people would begrudge a minority for preferring to hiring others like them for a wide variety of reasons, not least of all as a way to do their part against institutional racism.

Commenting on and mocking the looks of a woman you don’t like politically is gross, but keep doing you.

There’s plenty of travel sites that provide all the information you could ever want about the various flights, in terms of seat width, leg room, meals, snacks, etc. The info is out there if you want it.

Maybe, but I’m also guessing the blowback is also directly correlated with the amount of crowing Sherman did about his deal in the aftermath. Some of his quote to Peter King are A+.

Yeah I definitely lean more towards the latter. This guy is definitely slowplaying his use of/addiction to cocaine
