@ECloskyWTSP It was definitely poor judgment. But he wins more than he loses with his glove and decision making. Just have to hope he closes the areas of weakness.

That is an inexcusable mistake from Junior Caminero. I respect hustling, but you *have* to know the situation. Ball is hit in front of you. There is zero reason to go to third in that situation with two outs.

@SpotGlobals Nothing is ever free.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announces free universal healthcare for 130 million citizens starting next year.

@commie_trucker Why is the people working all these hours never give details?

I’m 43 now. I’ve worked 50-70 hours a week my entire adult life. I’ve lost years of time with my children and loved ones just so we could afford to live. This life is not only cruel, but unnecessarily cruel. A better world is possible.

@MetamateDaz Well start a business. I'll root for you to have the secret to solving the problems that trillions of taxpayer dollars haven't fixed.

I genuinely don't understand people like Bezos and Musk. If I had billions of dollars, I would just start fixing everything. Homeless veterans sleeping on the streets? Not on my watch. Hungry children going to bed with empty stomachs? Hell no. They could be making life better but instead choose to build spaceships and data centers to pump stocks and destroy the planet

@Kadotttt You know the banks actually own a great number of homes? Your just accepting the risk on repairs, taxes. and the hope the value increases. Buying a home has to make financial sense. They come with pros and cons.

We need a new law stating that if you can pay $2,000 a month for rent banks must acknowledge the fact you can afford to pay a $1,400 mortgage

@TBRaysCentral Grove has little success in MLB. Is he a Clevinger? Older pickup for Rays with little track record who has been very good overall or is he a Gomez? Guy with good stuff but no command in the strike zone?

Recently acquired RHP Michael Grove has started a rehab assignment in FCL. The Rays have a handful of pitchers that could come back and potentially help the bullpen at some point this season. Edwin Uceta, Manny Rodriguez and Cole Sulser are the obvious candidates, but there are two other guys in Grove and Steven Wilson that could help as well.

@itsrosesm Cheaper than a MRE to purchase.

Should military members be given high end foods such as steak, lobster, and crab at the expense of taxpayers?

@greendragonhq Damn those cities!

Not only do red states have the highest poverty rates, the worst healthcare, and the poorest education, but they also have the highest murder rates. Why do they want the entire country to look like this? States with the highest murder rates: 🔴 Mississippi - 20.5 🔴 Louisiana - 15.2 🔴 Alabama - 13.3 🔴 Missouri - 11.8 🔴 Tennessee - 10.2 🔴 South Carolina - 11.4 🔴 Arkansas - 11.0 🔴 North Carolina - 9.4 🔴 Georgia - 9.6 🔵New Mexico - 8.0

@DavidShuster A reliable source?

According to Al Jazeera, the Iran deals includes unfreezing billions in Iranian funds, lifting U.S. blockade, pulling U.S. forces away, reopening strait of Hormuz though with tolls to Iran, and allowing Iran to keep its enriched uranium. This would be a total U.S. surrender.

@Ry_Bass Hopefully he figures it out. Sometimes a step back helps.

Of note: Former #Rays OF Josh Lowe optioned to AAA by Angels.

@cmclymer Fun facts I didn't know. Guess it wasn't impactful.

This is the first day in a world without CBS News Radio, which had been broadcasting since 1927. Through eighteen presidential administrations, nine popes, five British monarchs, and numerous wars. Nearly 100 years of journalism, gone like that. Bari Weiss killed it.

@AdamStensonACS Lots of successful D1 pitchers throw in this range. They also develop velo in college.

Why is someone who throws 85-87 playing summer ball? Probably because outside of 3 conferences of D1 baseball your odds as a player of being selected are less than .001% and the guys are enjoying the last bit of the kids game they have left before life takes over.

@AdamKinzinger Alex,"Propaganda for $500."

Wow. Absolute surrender

@Pro__Trading So a good QB vs a bad one?

In a world of Collin Kaepernicks, be a Jaxson Dart.

@GayBearRes Will you be there for the inheritance? It isn't your responsibility to take care of them. Lots of solutions in home health. What if they moved near you would you be there then? Honestly no one can expect a working family member to take care of them but mant do.

My Boomer parents retired to Florida about 10 years ago. Sure enough my parents’ health is declining. Instead of moving back to the house they never sold, their solution is that I uproot my wife and kids and move to Florida. Why are they like this? 1/2

@ewarren If it's his IRS can he shut it down?

Trump sued his own IRS. Settled with his own government. Secured a $1.8 billion slush fund to siphon toward his allies. Blocked the IRS audits against himself and his family.  This is corruption in plain sight.

@1NCRDB1 Usssa softball rules senior league if a team batting leaves the closable dugout door open and a ball is hit fair into the door to the out of play area what is the call

thought this sh!t was AI, what we doing man

@CoachSwit Parents need to understand no one should care what your kid can do until they are around 16. There's just too much development between 13 and 16 to know who really is the top 5% or so that can compete for D1 or professional opportunities. Play, hone skills and have fun.

2 years ago, I had 2 players turn down our 13U team to play “national” baseball for more exposure. Exposure to who? No college coach recruits 13-year-olds. Later, one dad told me it was a huge mistake. Nearly $18K gone chasing fake exposure. Parents are sold a dream.

@Cryptoboyy_Aji Local, state and federal government your silent financial partner. Government is necessary and needs funding. But the punitive redistribution effort is just cover for politicians wasting money to get elected.

Two days ago Jeff Bezos said the bottom half of Americans should pay zero federal income tax. His example: a nurse in Queens making $75K and sending $12,000 to Washington every year. “We shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington. They should be sending her an apology.” And he’s right. The uncomfortable part is that the people who could actually make that happen have been fighting it for decades. The same system that taxed that nurse $12,000 gave billion dollar corporations a tax rate lower than hers. Bezos saying the quiet part out loud doesn’t fix anything. But it does make it a lot harder to pretend the problem doesn’t exist.

@YankeesFiles The team doesn't quit.

This is the stupidest inning of all time and people are going to act like the Rays can sustainably succeed doing this bullshit
