Astros are now getting an extra pick in the 2026 MLB draft (Brown finishing top 3 in CYA voting), & Framber likely receiving & rejecting a QO, so I set ChatGPT estimate when the #Astros will likely pick in the first 5 rounds.

I’m not ready to declare so definitively, but I think the #Dodgers may have surpassed the #Yankees for the team I label as “anyone but them.”

I hope Alex Bregman ends the Yankees season. And if he doesn’t I hope George Springer ends the Yankees season. And if he doesn’t I hope Kyle Tucker ends the Yankees season

It’s too bad that MLB decided to cancel the playoffs this year.

I really hope the Astros don’t dip into this well, but with the glut of aging infielders already on the roster for 2026, I can’t imagine that they do.

Soundtrack for tonight.
I’m not a huge Elliott Smith fan, but I appreciate his music. @bradmehldaumusic.com takes his songs to another level for me. Everything I love about Smith & Mehldau (with a little Daniel Rossen thrown in for good measure).

I still contend that while this may not technically be the “best” #TheShins song, it’s the one that consistently hits me exactly right. Every. Single. Time.

I’m amazed that people look at this and think, “Great idea!” It looks terrible. If a company is looking for advertising, they’d do better with a cartoon than this AI junk. Terrible quality. AI continues to unimpress at every turn. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/17/business/tiktok-ai-avatars.html

Not at all surprised to see the 2019 Astros in this list. Much more surprised to see the 1969 Astros. I guess they just have multiple 10-game winning streaks every 50 years.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
THE BREWERS

the 10th team in the divisional era (1969) with multiple double-digit winning streaks in a season, joining:

2019 HOU
2017 LAD
2015 TOR
2013 ATL
2001 STL
1978 PIT
1977 KC
1969 NYM
1969 HOU

Narrator: little did he know...
We dodged the absolute worst with the back half of our bullpen.

Will be happy to see Hader in the 9th.

NYC truly is the greatest city in the world. Tonight, for example, they put on a dazzling display of baseball led by the Mayor of NY: Jose Altuve.

Wow. Listening to a custom radio station on Apple Music, & it just made remarkably seamless transitions from “Redbone” by Childish Bambino to “DNA” by Kendrick Lamar to “Help!” by The Beatles. Each time, it layered the new song over the former, as if the two had been engineered together. Beautiful.

@jreylee.bsky.social Just listened to you on @beyondsolitaire.bsky.social. Very interesting stuff. I teach in a Marriage & Family Therapy graduate program, and I’m always looking for ways to expand how to talk about theories & modeling in relationships. I look forward to reading the book.

There is no Christian theology or eschatology that can justify man-made starvation.

Even if people are viewed as enemies, the Scriptures still tell us what to do:

“If your enemies are hungry, feed them.”

The baptized have pledged their allegiance to Jesus Christ, not the Pentagon or the IDF.

Altuve is totally innocent, and the Astros 2017 scandal didn’t actually make a difference on the field.

Had a great time in Seattle with my guy watching the #Astros on the road. I officially can’t stand the #Mariners or their fans, but I guess that’s makes for a good rivalry. #GoAstros
