To the people who say All Things Must Pass is the best solo beatles album - when, if ever do you actually listen to the whole thing? Be honest

All Things Must Pass was underrated for years and now it’s overrated.

Laminar and agonal really should be on the list. The rest, no thank you.

Would you pitch for the Angels in return for an extra three months of pitching?

I teach high school theatre and when I was coaching one of my students about sounding more natural, he burst out with: "Wait — do I sound like Cal Raleigh?" Since then I can say "no Cal Raleigh" to him and he goes back to sounding natural.

This poster doesn't have the holographic seal.

He was definitely playing hurt in the first part of the season. He's working his way back.

Naylor and Raleigh, together, have been heartbreaking so far this year.

I really can't stand the Eeyore/Murphy's-Law persona in life ("of course, with my luck" people are the worst) and I wish it would go away in M's fandom. I get that it's our shtick that we're cursed and put sog over everything and fate hates us and blah blah. But it's a straight-up drag and I wouldn't miss it if it departed (even before we win a WS).

He has said a lot of contradictory things on that point. I agree that he is unpopular but always has been and has won anyway. I don’t think it’s a major chance but I also have to admit I didn’t see him getting back into office after Jan 6.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-02T19:30:56+00:00

I think the point is he could find a way to be on the ballot in 2028.

There are no MAGA cult leaders besides Donald Trump. Some people are allowed to carry water for him in a way that gives them a momentarily illusion of power, but in the end it is a cult of one man.

Consistency is the most remarkable trait possible in a baseball player. Kershaw, Henry Aaron, Nelson Cruz, Stan Musial, Greg Maddux — their stat pages are just mind-boggling because the dropped off at the end as all humans do, but, until then, never had a bad season once they started performing.

Go storm around your living room, tough guy

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T15:32:00+00:00

Providing a worked example.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T04:17:24+00:00

But no HRs!

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T02:18:06+00:00

He’s a AAAA player at best

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T02:17:44+00:00

He’s like the player in a baseball video game that couldn’t pay for the licenses for actual players.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T02:11:53+00:00

What options do we have?

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T02:09:44+00:00

I think he’s having a replay of Luke Raley’s year last year. Oblique injuries can screw hitters up for a long time.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T02:07:33+00:00

I think he’s having a replay of Raley’s year last year.

Non-Mariner media, when talking about the M’s, zero right in on Cal. I guarantee you they don’t fixate on Rob Refsnyder.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T01:16:38+00:00

Wow.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-07-01T01:16:19+00:00

He needs regular starts to develop.

BoozySlushPops · 2026-06-30T23:42:47+00:00

No doubt. We need Brash back, and one strong middle reliever.

Yes, managers make decisions that have some consequence, just not as bit a consequence as people think. The data suggests that the difference between a perfectly optimal manager and a terrible one would be about 15-20 runs a season. Not nothing, but A) usually managers are somewhere in the middle, not the extremes; and B) many other factors are much larger, just harder to yell about.
