People listing their favorite teams again. /takes a deep breath/ ok here we go: I watch mlb but don’t have any favorite teams. I just watch whatever game seems good, has players I like, and I root for no one. I don’t care who wins it loses (seriously). I love chaos, and ✨might be good at jinxing✨

Thrilled for Brendan and thrilled for us that we get to read Brendan. It's time for the public sphere to take all the great writers back, pillage MLB until there's nothing left but empty suits
Well if it isn’t just the best news. @bgawlowski.bsky.social is a gem, Fangraphs is better for having him, and now I can mock him in public again.

We could see the pitcher rigging a bet by deliberately throwing a ball and the batter rigging a bet by swinging and missing and the ump rigging a bet by missing a call and the manager rigging a bet by getting thrown out in the first inning

Another reason I'd never bet on baseball. You never know what is going to happen.
This is one of the pitches that was supposed to be a ball, but Andy Pages swung anyways.

I want to reiterate that gambling addiction is incredibly destructive and if you're trying to apply logic to it you likely won't find it. Addictions are irrational. Saying “I don't get why someone would do this” is applying non-addict thinking and it won't help you understand.

Oh look that thing that we all said would happen has happened
Breaking news per Jeff Passan: “Cleveland Guardians pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz have been indicted by prosecutors in Brooklyn on a host of charges related to a scheme to rig bets on pitches thrown in MLB games. Ortiz was arrested in Boston earlier today. Clase is not currently in custody”

Musk used Grok to animate Sydney Sweeney to make her say “you are so cringe.”
Not only does it look and sound awful, I don’t think he understands how embarrassing this is for him.

Time to disrespect Manfred even more
These new details from last summer's confrontation between Rob Manfred and Bryce Harper are absolutely insane.
MLB officials threatening players will "end up in a ditch" for disrespecting Manfred is outrageous behavior.

Guessing it is definitely not their first drink of the night
Got back to my hotel. Group got on elevator same time. Man (probably mid 40’s) sees a drink on the floor of elevator. Says it looks “brand new. Ice isn’t even melted.”
Him and his girl both start drinking it. “It’s great. Rum and Coke!”
THE FLOOR DRINK!
THE DRINK FOUND ON THE FLOOR OF AN ELEVATOR!

I want to gently kiss the least weasel on their tiny nose
If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

Boycotting this place even harder now
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
