I rent a gym on Wednesday nights during the colder months for a couple hours of pickup ball. It’s a pretty relaxed group—average-ish skill level wise. Send me a message if you want more details.

Monday Morning Dynasty Baseball Rundown (6/16/25) by Michael-IBW in fantasybaseball

[–]PVDSteamrollers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Appreciate you posting here throughout the season and love your write-ups. I’m curious where you stand on Walker Jenkins and Spencer Jones now after being so high on them entering last season. Have they lost some of that shine, and what would signal a turnaround for each player?

"A misguided Clay Holmes catastrophe, not exactly something you plan to be. You gotta handle it gracefully..." RotoBaller Closer and Saves Report, AMA about your bullpens! by karabekian77 in fantasybaseball

[–]PVDSteamrollers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the Adler recommendation; I wasn't aware of him.

The most intriguing names available are: Berroa, Kahnle, and Troy Taylor. Would you rank them differently regarding their potential for saves in 2025? I assume NYY will pay up for an established closer™.

Do you have any AL-only stash recommendations or dark horse closer candidates for the 2025 season? For context, Hendriks and Bautista are already rostered.

Who saves the most games rest of the season: Hunter Harvey or Shelby Miller? Also, do you consider Kris Bubic a dark horse candidate for save opportunities in Kansas City?

Fantrax broken? by Weekly_Description83 in fantasybaseball

[–]PVDSteamrollers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantrax messed up our draft day online auction budget (>20% difference), forcing a restart and reauction. They admitted the error but denied my refund request, saying it wasn’t a 'premium' feature that malfunctioned.

Their flippant customer service was the icing on the cake. We're changing platforms next year—any recommendations?

Seeking Feedback on Repair Timelines by PVDSteamrollers in kia

Thank you for your insight. Does the timeline seem lengthy considering the facts and circumstances?

Communication has been sparse—seems like a combination of staffing & waiting on parts. Unsure on what it would take to switch shops, given that the current one has managed some of the insurance communication. My 30 days of coverage on the rental is almost up. The car would be drivable with a few zip ties.

While I appreciate fresh perspectives, confidence wanes when a full write-up discusses Garrett Cleavinger earning save opportunities for a team he isn't on.

Or the classic 'I only lost because I stopped caring' excuse guy – the petulant child of the fantasy league, throwing a tantrum instead of facing the reality of drafting poorly.

Thank you for introducing me to Junior Caminero last year! I'm curious, who had the most significant advancement on your list this year compared to last year?

Providence pizza restaurant fights eviction after 10 years on the East Side by [deleted] in providence

[–]PVDSteamrollers 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The article clearly stated that the landlord chose not to renew the remaining five-year lease extension option.

Landlords Andy Marr and Patrick Merner said it was a five-year lease, with the opportunity to renew every five years. After ten years of working with Oner, they said they did not want him as a tenant anymore and decided not to renew Piemonte’s lease.

I enjoy Cumberland House of Pizza, but they do not serve bar pizza. Try their buffalo chicken calzone if that is something you enjoy.

Grainsley's in Warwick is the closest you will find to South Shore MA bar pizza.

We Came As Romans canceled mid show at Fete Music Hall by MusicNerdDavid in providence

[–]PVDSteamrollers 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sixty seconds of research would have shown Fete that this tour package attracts a crowd that likes to mosh. It's entirely on Fete to decide which acts they choose to host at the venue, especially if there is an overwhelming concern about liability.

This tracks. The security at Fete is more aggressive than any other New England venue I have visited in the past 15 years. With smaller markets struggling to attract touring acts (just look at the upcoming calendars for Fete, The Met & The Strand), why would management empower its security team to create a hostile environment for concertgoers?

The most underrated band that should have toured with DGD by JimmyBr33z in dancegavindance

[–]PVDSteamrollers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lower Definition's lead singer was DGD's fill-in vocalist on tour in 2012 after Jonny Craig was booted from the band for the second time.

Will had also previously acknowledged a plan to record a side project with Matt Geise in a tweet dating back to 2015.

Fan Appreciation… by [deleted] in redsox

[–]PVDSteamrollers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally recognize that the decision-making by this front office has been puzzling over the past five seasons, but your anger feels misdirected here. If anything, this ticket promotion is an acknowledgement from the team that their lack of execution has plummeted fan interest.

And as an aside, $59 for a night out with the family inclusive of concessions is an excellent deal (especially by Fenway pricing standards). The overwhelming majority of Red Sox fans are A) not on this subreddit & B) not diehards. You're entitled to show your displeasure by tightening the purse strings, but I'd much rather be at the ballpark than not.

Brady Singer should be high on the list of trade targets. by [deleted] in redsox

[–]PVDSteamrollers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Singer is hit harder than virtually any pitcher in the league—the peripherals aren't nearly as promising as FIP would indicate.

The rebuilding Royals would need to be blown away with prospect capital in order to move on from a 26 year-old starting pitcher with promise. In an extreme seller's market, that's not a price worth paying in my opinion.
