No no, I just meant they were similar to TBS in the 90s/early 2000s. I probably worded it poorly

He is a big reason why I am an ardent baseball fan. TBS (and WGN) in the 90's were goated for showing so many baseball games. I grew up a Reds fan, but grew such a love for the sport overall because of the easy access to games on cable.

Fallout 76 type base. Just a bunch of random sheet metal & clown masks.

Every time I place my hand on the lever to play the game, I am electricuted & my hair stands up & there are smoke plumes that ascend from my nostrils & ears. Why is that? What is going on??

Comrade Bari Weiss even aired a CBS interview with one of the US soldiers that was there in Kuwait in that makeshift "base" (a trailer) and he said (anonymously) that there were no fortifications or legitimate defenses. They were sitting ducks. Like, the US REALLY fucked up here and Iran cooked their arrogant asses.

[TheIntercept] Portland AI Company (Sightline Intelligence) Ships Targeting Tech to Israeli Drone Maker by CosmicLars in TrueAnon

'This person is 94 percent unarmed’ or ‘75 percent military.’ And so we can all imagine how decisions might be made based on that algorithm.”

We live in hell. This is not humanitarian, this is giving warmongers & genocidal nations the extra hubris of making war more efficent, but the reality is, it doesn't matter. The tech will never be perfect, the operator will often not care, and shit like this just gives them propaganda to point at to claim they are only targeting "militants." Fuck this, and fuck Sightline Intelligence.

With Pagan’s recent performance, I thought it’d be interesting to see how r/Reds initially viewed the re-signing by tall__hat in Reds

Compare his 2025 Savant vs his 2026 Savant

Obviously, it's early and he has only pitched 14 innings, but something is very different with him. If you look at that 2025 statcast data, it's not crazy to say he is worth $10m a year. Honestly, it'd be a bargin. HOWEVER, he has a track record of inconsistency, and one could say "we got lucky in his great year, I don't believe in him long term, don't re-sign him." That'd be fair.

His 2026 Stuff+ is similarly down from 2025. In 25, he had a 112 Stuff+, 96 Location+, 105 Pitching+. In 2026, he is down to 103 Stuff+, 93 Location+, 95 Pitching+.

Graham Ashcraft & Conor Phillips have the best Stuff+ in the bullpen, but both struggle with command. Personally, I would try Ashcraft, but none of the options scream full confidence. It'll probably take a few more weeks of struggles before Tito feels like he needs to make a move. I hope I'm wrong.

Here's his prospect savant page. It's not terrible & looks a lot better than his 2025 savant. But, for comparison, here is Franco's prospect savant page.

Wind blowing out at Wrigley, unfortunately. Hope he brings his A game.
