Bryce Young’s effort to jump into that fumble had some Cam Newton vibes. That aside, what an idiotic time to get cute with playcalling

So, yea, the Rays lead the league in running into outs at home in 2025, but was it as bad as that 26 number feels? I looked into all 26 outs in my bi-annual contribution to @draysbay.bsky.social www.draysbay.com/general/8654...

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

@stathead.com -- help? Team report says Morel has 2 OOB at home; what's the best way to find those individual events? Neither show up on the Pivotal Play Finder report using him as a baserunner

Looking into how the Rays lead the league with outs at home in 2025. This may be the worst one yet from opening weekend vs the Rockies. That's notorious speedster Junior Caminero rounding third on a double off the wall by Aranda

I hope you believe in yourself in 2026 as much as Jonathan Aranda believed in his ability to score on this play from second base in 2025 www.mlb.com/video/serant...

Fixing to clean out my cable drawer because I have to work today despite an empty board & 100% of customers out.
Wish me luck because I'm positive I'm going to discard a 10+ year old cable I'll need 2 weeks from now

More holes: a collander

My, how the game of baseball has changed since the last expansion season. Even if you sum up the past four seasons, you still only get to 51 (10, 17, 12, 12) . The line chart gives us a few infamous eras of blind eye, testing, and super happy fun ball time
