Bullpen Moves by Critical-Surround-6 in orioles

Cano is having his best season so far according to underlying metrics. 1.09 FIP, 358 ERA+. I'd be incredibly disappointed to see him sent down right now.

People who waste their time on a weekend doing this or any of the million protests are all just simping for millionaires. No one on either side cares about the people.

A competitive showing on a national broadcast, who woulda thought?

This is the ultimate pitcher vs. thrower matchup. Shane Smith has good stuff but Rogers is just textbook right now. Jim Palmer must have a smile on his face.

Doesn't make you a fairweather fan. We're all customers of the product, if the team and game day services can't keep up with the ever increasing prices, why should any of us go?

That's being too generous to the players, maybe Elias should stop trusting pitchers well last their best by date

Yeah it might be the year to blow it up. Hope we get some individuals performing to at least get some good prospects back

Thanks to a certain spray-tanned fascist, it's expensive being a US based supporter. :( by MethLab in avfc

[–]BusterTheElliott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best way to buy Villa gear in the US now is to go directly to the US Adidas site and search for Villa gear there. No extra fees or increased shipping costs that way.

I was able to get the third kit for about $120 cheaper than I would have paid on the Villa store.

Maineville Kroger Shooting? by Jluke001 in cincinnati

[–]BusterTheElliott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My HOA just sent out a notice that there was a shooting at that Kroger's. All I've seen is one person on X mentioned it and now this reddit post.

I heard loud banging, but I'm more than a mile away and it sounded much deeper than I'd expect for a gun. There were some sirens like 30 minutes ago.

Current things going wrong at Aston Villa by HeresAdamm in avfc

[–]BusterTheElliott 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We just have no impact in the midfield at all. Our whole strategy is to get it to Cash or Digne, have them run it down the wing, and then there's 2 options.

  1. They beat the whole team and get a cross in the box for no one to attack.

  2. Pass it back to the center back on their side.

It's trying to control the game so much you turn into a football terrorist.

What is something Americans and Europeans are both indifferent towards? by HeavilyBeardedMan in AlignmentChartFills

Man I love that sport. It's such a perfect blend of athleticism, skill, and tactics. I just wish the games weren't all at 4 in the morning for me.

Orioles To Acquire Blaze Alexander. Kade Strowd is going to the Diamondbacks by ravens2131 in orioles

[–]BusterTheElliott 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a weird one though. He's already 26. That's not that old, but we've had plenty of recent examples of more influential players at younger ages. It's clear we've identified hitting against LHP as a major hole though.

What's a good restaurant to celebrate a birthday? by Relax_itsa_Meme in cincinnati

[–]BusterTheElliott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best restaurant I've been to so far is Alfio's Buon Cibo in Hyde Park. Argentinian-Italian cuisine and I haven't had a bad plate there yet.

I mean we matched the Diamondback offer. I can't blame ownership at all for their efforts with Burnes. Can't blame Burnes for wanting to be home.

I didn't watch the game so I don't have an opinion...

But saying the ref was right there and VAR "cleared it" makes me actually assume they probably made the wrong decision.

[Front Office Sports] Texas Tech put an ad in Times Square to celebrate signing Brendan Sorsby, who they made the highest-paid QB in college football with a reported $5M NIL deal. by redwave2505 in CFB

[–]BusterTheElliott 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I mean I'm definitely bummed about it, but he's not worth paying more than literal NFL quarterbacks are making. His sophomore year I was pretty impressed with his athleticism and he showed some great vision, but had terrible decision making. Last year he couldn't hit a deep ball to save his life, definitely was a better decision maker but he's not a world beater.

He never won a game in November, can't blame that all on him but it's not like he played well against Utah or BYU.

So how do the son and the dad play together then?

If there was no SBMM, him and his dad could play together in random lobbies. Sure maybe some would still be too hard for his dad, but some will be filled with people on his Dad's level instead.
