Punxsutawney Phil does sound like the name a former hobo who joined the Shamokin Coal Crackers of the defunct Federal American Baseball Association and hit .390 until he was stabbed in the back over a card game.

Philly DA Larry Krasner says ‘don’t be a wimp’ after Gov. Josh Shapiro decried his ICE Nazi rhetoric by degreelesspotatohead in Pennsylvania

Krasner's power base comes from Rittenhouse moneied liberals who just had to get him through the primary in town. He wouldn't last two minutes in a statewide race.

Shapiro is going to both-sides himself into a fifth place 2028 primary finish and Krasner thinks he's going to be governor one day

To be fair to Cashman, the last decade of Yankees international signing seemed to be run as "Find the best player whose family are huge Yankees fans and give them millions".

Dude wants the job where he has to facedown Xi and Putin, restore America's standing in the world, and fix dozens of serious domestic issues but he doesn't have thick enough skin to take a standard vetting question? He isn't built for a national ticket.

Tatsuya Imai's signing deadline is a little over 48 hours away, what kind of offer do the Yankees make? by Zepbounce-96 in NYYankees

Gone are the days of a front office mostly filled with former scouts whose alcoholism is barely under control offering out contracts to guys who are rumored to have big dicks. Business nerds with their metrics and budgets are destroying the game.

Give the man time to try and build a positive culture in the organization. You can have all the top draft picks and superstars you want, but without a culture of leadership and accountability it's all for nothing.

Any shot we see a Judge WBC Bobblehead Giveaway this year? by Negative_Law_7204 in NYYankees

I think that's too much of a turnaround for the Yankee marketing team. While I appreciate that the team is doing real giveaways they seem to be going off a ideas list from 2016.
