🚨#BREAKING: Multiple customers suffer chemical burns after a North Carolina Chili's employee mistakes an industrial cleaning chemical for salt while preparing margaritas.
soccer will dominate within 20 years because no one with a brain will allow their kids to play football, short people can't play basketball, and kids are generally disinterested in baseball (a lot of that driven by Travel Ball elitism).
Michael King 2026:
92 K/9+ (100+ is good)
99 BB/9+ (-100 is good)
103 xFIP- (-100 is good)
97 Pitching+ (100+ is good)
This guy is not a good pitcher. Worse than lg avg in 3 of 4 categories. Stay away.
wait, this deal is STILL in limbo? at this rate they'll be in Orlando by 2029.
MLB vs MLBPA CBA Worst Case Scenarios:
MLB - PA willing/able to hold out until mid-May+, delaying new TV deal. big money losses.
PA - nothing gets done, Fed steps in like '95, previous CBA extended. PA will find out just how cheap every team can be, emboldened by Brewers/Rays.
seeing seemingly a million people amplifying a terrible hot take by a guy notorious for them.
STOP IT.
waiting on the call from the BIG TEN now.

my hunch for the Braves '26-'27 offseason plan for pitching is they move Fuentes and Kerr into the rotation, sign 1 guy (Mahle, another RP to SP convert, etc), count on Strider/Schwellenbach coming back, and kick the tires on the deGrom trade again.
for the Pen, i figure they'll find a couple of value guys, though they've not been averse to spending for bullpen arms. Strider is also a potential candidate there.
The Braves exercised the Albies' Option, of course.

"Above my pay grade", he says. Yeah, no kidding.
Guy at the absolute peak of his career, set to make league minimum again next year.
Odds of him ever getting paid commensurate with his performance on the field are miniscule. MLBPA sucks so bad.
MLBPA AL Outstanding Pitcher Cam Schlittler joined us this morning to chat about the impending lockout.
"As players, we stand behind each other and we support each other. I know at the end of the day, we're going to have each other's back. Obviously the goal is to go out there and play baseball and give the fans what we want." @CBSSports
