You'll probably see posts about Reds baseball, fantasy baseball, Virginia sports, and the occasional riff on foreign policy.
Teens turn to a variety of online platforms, but YouTube continues to stand out. Roughly nine-in-ten teens report ever using it. TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat are the next most widely used platforms.

Hegseth repeatedly misled the public about this strike.
The boat was headed for Suriname, not the U.S.
It wasn't carrying fentanyl.
The survivors didn't "radio for backup."
This strike was illegal, and Hegseth is trying to cover up what happened by refusing to release video.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Tuesday that the Pentagon will not publicly release unedited video of a strike that killed two survivors of an initial attack on a boat allegedly carrying cocaine in the Caribbean. https://to.pbs.org/4pZJb8p

My dad and I rescued a grandfather clock from my grandmother's house recently. Had a clock repairman come out today to take the movement to be repaired. He dates it to 1760. Amazing.

The Reds should trade Brady Singer for Ryan Mountcastle.

Here's my best case for the Reds seemingly looking to trade for a top tier 2b, and, frankly, I'm talking myself into it.
Acquire Marte or Lowe - 2b
Move EDLC to CF
Friedl to LF
McLain to SS
I think that solves EDLC defensive issues, gives you an elite OF, solves LF, gives you LH pop.
I like it.

This is the second report in the past 12 hours indicating the Reds are looking to deal for a 2b (the other being Ketel Marte).
Odd. Not sure I have a great explanation for it.

Just put on Genesis' "The Way We Walk" live album from 1992. Brings back a lot of really vivid, happy memories from my childhood. It's my first of two albums I first "remember" from when I was a kid (the other is Warren G's Regulate - G Funk Era)
Also, this album is bangers start to finish.

The correct moves would be:
Trade Singer & his $15 million for a middle reliever and some replacement OF bat.
Don't sign Lux for $5 million
Don't sign Hays (check) (~$10 million savings)
Go sign Schwarber, which gets even cheaper as Candelario's dead money comes off the books.

Not trying to beat up on Jake Meyers, but these are the kinds of moves that set teams back several years.
In the past two years the Reds will have thrown $35 million at people like Candelario, Hays, and possibly O'Hearn and Meyers when they could have gotten Schwarber for $30 million.

And this is the platonic ideal of who the Reds target. Scrappy dudes with singles power to hit in cavernous GABP
Gavin Lux only had 5 HR and 1 SB in 500 PA. That ties Joe Mauer (2018) for the worst HR + SB (6 HR) since Adeiny Hechavarria with 3 HR and 1 SB in 2016.
