Diaz says he's fully healthy, with no physical issues. Of course deGrom used to talk like that too right before one of his many IL stints.

Re: Who's your new closer?

I'd expect Lopez if this ineffectiveness persists. He has closing experience at least.

Re: Politics Are Still Loco: 2024

Spare me the pearl-clutching. Trump totally destroyed the notion of 'presidential'. It was a pretty good joke, and it was guaranteed to have Donnie flinging ketchup against the wall. That 'when they go low we go high' stuff died with Hillary's campaign. This will be a dirty campaign, and it's good t...

8.44 ERA. That should improve nicely facing this Mets team.

Something about them being sellers at the deadline. They play the Marlins this weekend which should be a pretty good barometer of how bad the Mets are.

First Trump-Biden debate June 27. Two big wins for Joe- no crowd and they shut off the mic when you're not answering. Those restrictions must annoy Trump, who got outplayed here. Bring your popcorn.

Re: 5/14/24 - The 'Why is this a Day Game?' IGT

We're going in circles. Which is boring. And making me lugubrious. There's a cream for that. I had no expectations of this team going in (see my season prediction), so I'm not surprised they are where they are. The pitching's actually been better than I expected, and the hitting's been far worse. M...

Looks like we're getting 2019 Diaz instead of 2022 Diaz this year. Not good.

Re: Offense Sucks Everywhere

5-inning starters who don't face batters a third time, and always facing a fresh arm out of the bullpen probably has something to do with those numbers, I'd suspect.

Re: Donald Trump in Hot Water

Judge denies a motion for a mistrial based on the salacious Stormy Daniels testimony being prejudicial to Trump. Well, it's the heart of the case; these details were the ones he didn't want to get out, and he committed the election fraud payments to prevent them from doing so.

Re: Donald Trump in Hot Water

So basically the National Enquirer was a full-fledged extension of the Trump campaign. You kind of knew it, but the casually blatant nature of it all is still surprising.
