“Prospecting” is insane. Especially for pitchers… who struggle to throw strikes… and haven’t had sustained success in the big leagues yet. I still think Miz will be a good MLB starter, but the people that “invested” in his cards are going to be really disappointed.

If Pitchcom receivers last five hours between charges, why are there 2 or 3 receiver replacements every game? This technology has been an awesome improvement for the fan experience of watching baseball, but they have to get this battery situation fixed during the offseason.

Looks like Old Friend Andy Haines, now the Cubs’ Minor League Hitting Coordinator, is spending this series in the big league dugout.

Won a lot of playoff games. Packed Petco Park. Generated more fan enthusiasm than any sports team in San Diego’s history.

Mearsheimer and Walt published this in 2007 and were called antisemitic for it. Few books about foreign policy have ever been more correct. No one can say “we” didn’t know what was happening. Now the Israeli regime finally got what it wanted most and lots more people are going to die.

Important Clarification: When I said the Brewers needed a 1997 Easton to save their season, I was referring to this 33” Easton Reflex Extended C405 Ultra — not the 6’7” Easton McGee.
