@scottmerkin Shane Smith can’t keep walking that many guys if he wants to be a #1 starter. Not in this league. Not in any league.

36 pitch second for Smith

@SoxOn35th Chase Meidroth knows he basically has to hit a HR in every AB to keep his job.

CHASE MEIDROTH LEADOFF TANK 😱

@BNightengale Lmao you could assemble two All Star caliber teams composed entirely of players less popular than Kike Hernandez.

Four of the top 7 selling jerseys, and 5 of the top 12, are Dodgers players

@CollinRugg So many casuals in the comments don’t know that this was pioneered years ago by Air New Zealand as a sky couch and was designed to make super long haul economy (like, flights to NZ) more humane. This is a good idea that United is stealing from an airline that proved it can work.

NEW: United Airlines releases new "Relax Row" where passengers can make a bed out of three chairs. The new feature will reportedly be available on 200 of their 787s and 777s. "You'll also get a mattress pad, blanket, and two pillows," United Airlines announced. "If you’re traveling with kids, a plushie too! United Relax Row will be available starting next year on more than 200 of our 787s and 777s, each with up to 12 of these brand-new rows."

@gregoryblotnick Itchy Runs Afoul of an Irishman

absurd Teddy Roosevelt story...scene, age 23, fresh out of Harvard, arrives in Albany in 1882 to make his political debut as a state assemblyman so much to unpack here. can't stop laughing

@Eric_Schmitt Amazing, this guy is somehow just as slow as he looks.

SLU Alcindor, Cream Abdul-Jabbar…

@ChiSoxFanMike Sox just got an extra roster spot to figure out this outfield thing. Extended audition…

So he’ll miss a month of the regular season at most. Annoying but feel like it could have been way worse. I have faith that Quero and Lee can hold it down until he comes back.

@jayhaykid What a bizarre thing to say the day after Bam Adebayo scored 83 points

This speaks to me.

White Sox Grid Day 9: Nick Swisher was the winner for day 8. The Rules remain the same as before and Today's Square is on the grid. Let's finish strong.

@CoachMarcusHill This one guy Paul Byrd used to massacre my favorite MLB’s lineup with pitches in the 70’s. Was only like two decades ago.

High school players I promise you can throw 75 over the plate with a three pitch mix and get guys out

@ajpierzynski12 @Ken_Rosenthal AJ why did this guy stay in this job for so long? He didn’t seem particularly good at it from a fan’s perspective. What did players see in him that we don’t?

This is a holy crap moment this close to bargaining @Ken_Rosenthal

@scottmerkin Juan Uribe vs Jose Valentin.

I asked Brooks Boyer if there were any surprising names on the alumni HR Derby list, from who he has talked to. His response? "Why don't you poll your readers and find out who they like?" So, who do you like?

@humantransit If your transit system goes to the airport, having cloth seats means your train will get bedbugs.

Cloth seats on rapid transit, common in US systems developed in the late 20th century, are a great example of elite projection. Designed to look nice to imagined "choice riders", they were too expensive to clean and maintain. 1/

@ZillaTK55 Many White Sox fans already like the Swallows because of Shingo Takatsu. Takatsu was very good for the White Sox in 2004.

I wonder how many new fans the Swallows will gain from Murakami being on the White Sox 🤔
