Marcelo Mayer became “kind of the forgotten one” of the team’s top prospects this offseason. But now healthy and back on the field, he’s wasting no time in offering reminders of his immense potential. “He’s still a freaking good player.” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/03/01/s...

Lucas Giolito is throwing his second live batting practice session today. He was sitting 93-94 and getting frustrated with his control… and then threw an angry 95 mph fastball (below) and a sharp slider to finish the simulated inning well. He has one more coming.

Giolito looked sharp in his second inning - up to 96, and his changeup got a swing/miss and then broke Yoshida’s bat.

Masataka Yoshida is set to play his first game on Sunday. He will be the designated hitter.

Yoshida has been building up on his own program after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder in October.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

Dear christian MAGA friends & family;

Howard Stern says you are all stupid because you voted for a unstable criminal fraud.

I don’t think 100% of you are “stupid” but for those who aren’t stupid it’s clear that you are gullible!

Have a blessed sunday
