The White Sox have 7 prospects in the top 101. And potentially more to come if they trade Luis Robert.
Of course, a new owner would be more helpful.

ICYMI: we released our top 101 prospects list yesterday. The list is free to read (w/basic subscription), and it's sortable and downloadable, too.

My 10-year-old decided to give up soda for 2025 and wanted my wife and I to join, so we did.
So far, I’m doing fine. But when the summer gas station fountain drink deals start, I don’t know.

I want to stay on Bluesky, but I’m just not seeing much activity here.
Then I check in on Twitter thinking I’ll go back there, and the moment it opens I immediately see all kinds of negativity and fighting.
Honestly, I’m not sure what I’ll do at this point.

I can’t emphasize this enough, I’m ok with this.
The Dolphins have *a lot* of money tied up in a handful of players. As long as they don’t just cut him and are able to get a Day 2 draft pick for him, I think this a win for Miami.

Some of us in that number were forced to plug our nose and vote for her because we didn’t like the alternative and there was no primary election.

No top-four teams advance, despite their first-round byes. Makes me wonder how quickly they’ll expand to 16, because…
1. Those top teams aren’t getting any 1st-round home game revenue
2. They might be a little rusty after 5 weeks off

It’s fascinating that people seem to have thought expanding the college football was supposed to make the actual playoff games more competitive.
Why would #12 vs #5 be more competitive than #4 vs #1?

I don't understand using terms like "reverse discrimination" or "reverse racism" as if they don't qualify for literal "discrimination" or "racism."
It's like people think racism and discrimination only manifest themselves in one direction.

My 4th-grader heard me talking about some freelance work and then asked, “Can I make a dashboard for money?”
This idea intrigues me, because I’ve been meaning to teach/help him learn data stuff, but I’m curious on other people’s thoughts:
What is the best way to execute this idea?
