- This will take some getting used to
- Stammen knows bullpen
Cup of Coffee paragraph from 9 December, 2025: There had been some speculation that the San Diego Padres might attempt to convert one of their top relievers – possibly even fireballer Mason Miller – into a starting role this offseason. Yesterday, however, new Padres manager Craig Stammen told reporters that neither Miller nor relievers Adrian Morejón or David Morgan will leave the pen, which suggests that San Diego will be active in the market for starting arms.

From today's Cup of Coffee, on MTG resigning, but not just yet:
(On the Marjorie Taylor Greene resignation) Of course she knew that was a possibility, and it informed her timing. We know this because the day she has announced her resignation will be effective – January 5, 2026 – is exactly one day after her Congressional pension fully vests, entitling her to roughly $140,000 a year and full medical benefits for the rest of her life. That's pretty good work for a hateful and dumb-as-a-post Cross-Fit instructor from Georgia who never had any interest in actually governing. But nothing about Greene or this whole episode justifies praising her for even a millisecond. She's been a horrible, divisive, and hateful person and her leaving office is an objectively good thing.

Meanwhile, lowly Key West ATCT has been standing in disrepair for ohhhh... about 7 years.
EYW ATCT on March 1, 2018 with siding peeled off from hurricane damage. EYW ATCT on 15 July, 2021 now with cab windows missing and remaining equipment inside exposed to the elements. EYW temporary ATCT is basically a trailer on stilts. I forgot the scare quotes around "temporary" tower.

The letter cited Trump’s January executive order and noted the recent enactment of state laws authorizing the death penalty for child sexual abuse in several states, including Arkansas, Florida and Tennessee. This year, both Idaho and Oklahoma made sexual assaults of children offenses eligible for death.

Your daily dose of Joe Maddon schadenfreude.
Joe Maddon always sucked though. He was a pompous shit in Tampa who milked the hell out of being a "quirky and different" personality (drinking a glass of wine during post-game interviews) and always came off as more or less TLR but savvier with modern media. Dude needs attention and will yell for it now that he's out of the game.
