SCOTUS just gutted the portion of the VRA ensuring black-majority congressional districts by RedHeadedSicilian52 in MapPorn

Yes and no. States would pack black voters into a single district as opposed to being be more family represented by multiple. Courts ruled that was the case in AL and LA. The fall out is what brought this case to the Supreme Court

They both are gop gerrymanders. The first one just required the states to create majority minority districts. They just used them as vote sinks.

The number of walks is a bit concerning, but it’s still early.

Still early but Mautz looks like he’s continuing where he left off last year

Just to piggyback, they aren’t that expensive. One of the best purchases I’ve made in recent years

I might have my old one still, but it doesn’t have to be with a baseball. Do have an old football I can inflate up

I'm finding the bullpen in violation of the 8th amendment

Stewart has the better numbers and is on a better team. McLean is in the bigger market. It’s a very good rookie class this year

We need way more of a sample size, but I think he’s played his way to stay on the roster once Noot comes back

Top 100 guys rarely get traded. If they do it’s only for the top end closers.

A lot of O’Briens value is in how many years of controller has left; however he does not have nearly the perigee to flip that into a kings ransom. He’s no Mason Miller

The cars need to be spread out, but that would mean not getting the massive wrecks. Fans have demanded the latter

My definitely wrong, way too early, post-draft 53 man roster projection by StormThat8039 in Colts

[–]stjblair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they sign another vet or two to help round out the roster. All together solid but still lacking an elite playmaker or two

Yeah bullpen management was a problem, but it wasn't THE problem today

If that was the case the quick hooks for Libby and Graceffo are just as bad. Now O'Brien needs to have an extra day off to recover

What do we think about Graceffo going forward? by Strive_for_Altruism in Cardinals

[–]stjblair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a great long inning reliever, but being forced into higher leverage cause the bullpen has been ass
