The Mets offered a record contract, the Dodgers topped it. Let's be real, if he signed in New York, the doomers would be considerably quieter. Let's be even more real, if the money was close, why would you NOT choose LA over the Mets?

ME (still irritated): "But I just watched Arsenal on ESPN2, why not there?"
ESPN: "Nope, re-airing the Stuart Scott documentary"
ME: "But it's like, live sports happening."
ESPN: "Sure, just pay us... more"
ME: "Nice, I get to watch #BHAFC against United on ESPN, since they carry the FA Cup!"
ESPN: "Sure! It's clearly listed as being on regular ESPN, which you have!"

ESPN, 10 mins before game: "Sike bro it's on ESPN+, pay us"

Like for real @espn.com what a bait and switch.

The chaotic evil wing of the BBWAA just salivating at the future Blake Snell hall of fame discourse.

All it took was a 60% chance of rain and an Aaron Judge home run and tomorrow's run is cancelled.

The CarFox... Fox has human teeth. Why is this not a bigger scandal?

This is sane-washing that even the NYT wouldn’t touch. NPR literally should know better than to put out a headline like this.

The science on Tylenol and autism isn't clear, despite President Trump's claims. Here's what parents need to know to make their own decisions about acetaminophen.
When it comes to Tylenol, what are parents to do?

Come for the face-kinis, stay for the Faulkner references.

George Smiley couldn't root out an injury on this guy.
He has a fracture in his hand. Oh, that little nugget!

So there’s decently credible speculation that Atlanta stood pat so the fans could watch “their guys”
march to a 72-90 record for… shareholder value. Yeah that tracks

Logged on to see any trade deadline updates and instead found Bryce Harper being a dude and the Cleveland Guardians pitching staff doing a reboot of "Eight Men Out"

The braves are currently on pace for a 71-91 season. Sale and Strider are pitching, RAJ is playing, so it's not last season with all the injuries. I think at some point you have to think "how much better could it actually get?".

GETTIN' AWFULLY LOUD NOW
As we roll into June, the Braves are 4 games under .500, 9.5GB of the east, and fighting with the Nationals for 3rd place. The warning sirens shouldn't be deafening, but they are certainly audible.

Stark sometimes feels like The Athletics Tim Kurkjian.
ARod was roughly twice the player as Jeter
May 23, 2025 at 4:54 PM
That was a really impressive win when we needed it the most. This team can compete at the highest levels, no doubt in my mind.
WHAT A WIN FOR THE ALBION! 💙🤍

“Got it”
“Shit”
“Nope. We good”
This is insane

This dog is somebody's uncle that's "seen some shit"
Look at this absolute unit

Mid May standings are always entertaining:

- The Rockies haven't won 10 games yet
- The A's have a better record than Atlanta
- The Angels have a better record than the Orioles

Just like we all predicted
