    The whole hybrid is the way to go thing recently is a knee-jerk reaction to a news story from a year and a half ago that went viral about a bunch of Teslas in Chicago that wouldn't charge at outdoor public charging stations during a 3-day stretch in January when it was 15 degrees below zero. Electric isn't for everyone (right now), and if you need to use outdoor public charging stations in northern climates you need to prepare for a couple of days a year where it may be too cold to charge. For those 3 days a year or whatever you need to plan ahead and charge in advance or anticipate that you may not be able to use your vehicle, but in general, you shouldn't be relying on outdoor public charging stations during the winter in certain northern climates. This is part of a larger thing I don't understand, which is why someone would buy a nice vehicle if they have to park it on the street.

    This is why I'm glad they didn't go all-in on a couple of rentals and just picked up a few fringe pieces to take their chances. Give the kids the year to learn & adapt, and then get Yeli, Woody, and Gasser back next year.

    Cardinals lose, now up 8.5

    The Brewers just beat the Dodgers with Montas starting. Baseball.

    When they can go up and out of the zone to hit fastballs, you just tip your cap and move on.
  7. LouisEly
    Probably the same reason the Rays, A's, Padres, and White Sox did.

    Finally remembered who Montas reminds me of: Wily Peralta Bigger guy, plenty of arm talent, trouble putting it all together.

    Banda throwing 98. And he was purchased from Cleveland back in May.

    Could be worse - they could have given up 2 actually valuable pieces for Fedde.

    I could easily see legislation that would require batteries to have a certain amount of life left in order for dealers to sell them, just like dealers cannot sell cars that have tires with less than a certain tread depth left or less than a certain brake life left. That cost will be ultimately be eaten by the person who trades it in, not the person who buys it, as dealers will test the battery before giving a trade-in value to know if they will need to replace it. And, if it gets to that point, the continuing demand for ICE vehicles coupled with the depleting supply will raise the price of ICEs and eventually make EVs, even with a battery replacement, the cheaper option. And, yes, batteries are going to get cheaper.

    So, what should the lineup be? Put your ideas out there for all the world to see.
  13. LouisEly
    Neither, unless it is an emergency due to injuries. Neither need to be added to the 40-man this offseason, thus adding them both creates a bigger roster crunch AND, if they don't make the team out of spring training next season, they will need to use one of their option years. And, while I love the long-term upside of both, rookies usually don't set the world on fire right from the get-go. I would expect some adjustment period to major league hitting needed for each, and thus, for this year's playoffs I would not expect either to be significantly better than who they already have.
  14. LouisEly
    Yep, because they can bring him up for the doubleheader on 8/30.

    You can't manage to win every game - you have to manage for the season so that your bullpen doesn't get worn down. Sometimes that means giving innings to not your best guys so that your best guys will still be at their best come playoff time. Would have been a good spot for Hudson, but he's on the IL. Next man up. Beating the Dodgers is more important than the Reds right now.

    Between 1982 and 1983, Slaton was credited with a combined 24 wins despite starting only seven games. More prominent in 1983, when he was credited with 14 wins despite not starting a single game. That 1983 season was something looking back. Zero starts, 112 innings pitched, 14 wins, 56 walks, 38 K's. The best "vulturing" Suter did was 12 wins in 2021 despite starting only one game.

    How does he have options when he was optioned in 2021, 2022, and 2023?

    PIT now 8 back and staring down a 6-game West Coast road trip with 3 @LAD then 3 @SDP. They finish with 10 of 13 on the road with the only 3 at home vs MIL. STL about to embark on a 8/9 to 9/8 stretch with all but one series against teams with winning records.

    Stole this from another board, but it was just too good not to share. From Drew Magary, formerly of Deadspin, now at Defector: In each of the past three years, the Vikings have had a late-season game against Green Bay that had major playoff implications. They lost those games by a combined score of 111-37. On national television.

    Every party needs a pooper

    I could be wrong, but is this the first comment about Rea in what is one helluva start so far?

    In football most players kind of know they're not going to be playing much their first two years. But that gives the helmet schools two years to figure out which recruits are going to pan out, and they get 20 more recruits to figure that out with.

    I thought this was going to happen a year ago, so I went heavy on bonds when the 10-year was 4.5%+. Took a while, but that's finally paying off. Or, at least mitigating the other stuff.

    I think it's a matter of semantics. Some people interpret "not bad" as "well". "Not bad" is not "well". It's "not bad". There's "bad", there's "well", and there's a space in between that is neither. Some people think seven singles is "knocked around"; others think singles are as much luck as anything.

    The Diamondbacks should have traded for relievers.
