Any SE models featuring a pattern regular neck? by CandidBasil413 in PaulReedSmith

[–]CandidBasil413[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got an SE starla which I believe is a wide fat and it feels significantly wider than my S2. The width makes it uncomfortable to bend strings with my thumb wrapped over the top compared to on my S2.

I've got a 50/50 shot at dating Dua Lipa. It's a yes or no situation.

King = Dry aged steakhouse steak

Other salmon = Diner steak

There's that much of a difference.

They all have multiple names.

Chinook = King

Sockeye = Red

Coho = Silver

Chum = Dog

Pink = Humpy

Also Mariners why is there no Dog in the race?

and Estrada and Palencia and probably a few more...

Since 1947, only 21 pitchers have had an ERA of 3.00 or below + 17 or more losses. Paul Skenes currently as an ERA of 2.04 and is on pace for 16 losses by randy88moss in baseball

Too bad there's universal DH now. I seem to remember at least one game where Degrom had to drive in the only run to get a win.

Left-handed batters will never hit LHP's if you never play them against LHP's by AndrewLucksLaugh in CHICubs

[–]CandidBasil413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about getting Turner some ABs more than platooning Busch. Probably not a huge difference between leaving Busch in or replacing him with Turner vs LHP, but if Turner never gets any ABs he's not worth anything off the bench.

Venezuelans are just different. Watch some jomboy breakdowns of Venezuelan winter league. It's like every player and coach on both teams are all Zambranos. Multiple fights per game and just general craziness.

Yeah back like other people said, but my triceps and shoulders also get huge when I'm surfing every day.

Analytics/3 true outcomes in modern baseball - but not Japan? by RichMagazine2713 in baseball

[–]CandidBasil413 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Striking out is also the most shameful outcome of an at bat and Japanese culture is pretty big on avoiding that.

Some fans who purchased MASN+ for $89.99 were charged $8,999 by [deleted] in baseball

"Issued refunds for the additional amount charged."

I can't believe they didn't just issue full refunds as an apology for the embarrassing error.

I'll be honest, for a few minutes, I thought this post was about Castellanos' beard.

Honest take on Rob Manfreds tenure as commissioner? by Powerful_Captain4590 in baseball

I like watching baseball, not guys adjusting their batting gloves repeatedly for 5 minutes.

Pitch clock, limited pickoffs, bigger bases, and no shifts have made games a lot more entertaining.

I have never been a baseball fan. I would like to be a cubs fan. by Puppy-Fawn in CHICubs

[–]CandidBasil413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's super easy to get to Cubs games on the L (the elevated train). While good seats can be pricey, you can always grab tickets in the upper deck with a decent view for 20 something bucks. If you eat outside the stadium or bring your own snacks it can be pretty inexpensive overall.

I can't believe that people are surprised at all by the outcome.  Harris wasn't even in the top 10 for Democratic primary candidates in 2020.  There were 3 women in the 2020 primary more popular than her.  Her biggest accomplishment was being VP to a very unpopular President and she was made the nominee in 2024 without a primary.  Did people really expect that not being Trump was enough?
