Prince plays everything here, I suspect inspired by Stevie’s imperial period (livin’ for the city etc).. I cannot objectively name a more singular individual performance than the PR album—

From Pablo to Pepiot, I analyzed performance and early ADP for six key fantasy starters who dealt with injuries or weird park changes.

It’s really odd that MLB waits to announce major awards winners until a random Weds. evening two weeks after the WS, when the omnivorous casual fan has been pulled to NFL and NBA

Trying to get a November socials blip? Tradition?

Why not capitalize on eyeballs and announce on a WS off day
Your 2025 Cy Young winners, Paul Skenes and Tarik Skubal! 🏆

A prematurely chunky infielder with a good hit tool, less power than you think, and catcher speed?

That is the Tigers MO

Generally I want them to spend but this just blocks McGonigle and Anderson

Bo or Gleyber?

Yamamoto full season professional WHIP’s:

.96, .94, .85, .93, .88, 1.11, .99

Steamer says…

1.19!

Please just plug in that value and draft accordingly

I’ve never understood the hype around Cam Johnson. When I watch I see a low energy, limited athlete with a good not great shot from 3.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

The Eagles do it again.

For all the couch GM salary cap enthusiasts in baseball, good ownership and mgmt doesn’t equalize with a cap.

It doesn’t save the Browns or Hornets, and it won’t put the Pirates and Rockies “on the same level” as the Dodgers, Yankees etc

So now we know for sure that JJ McCarthy, in his third game after not playing for a year, is definitely good.

We must know and decide with great certitude

Nothing more predictable than being never Danny Dimes, carrying him as a backup to Hurts, only for him to revert to Daniel Butterfingers Esq. the week I actually need him.

A jazzy Gabriel cover. Hancock made a great covers album with friends, here Legend and Pink.

Many wondrous events in these playoffs but the best has to be Smoltz saying something with extreme confidence only to be disproven almost immediately the next moment

Said it to a friend before the game, but Roberts/LA planned to manage Ohtani the way a fan would.
They wanted 4 innings on 3 days rest? Two seemed more realistic.
Glasnow should’ve gotten the third, especially after the traffic Ohtani allowed.
