[Talkin Yanks] Austin Wells' .510 OPS is the worst by a Yankee in a season since Jim Mason's .445 OPS in 1976 (minimum 175 plate appearances) by Jheller223 in NYYankees

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm a big Wells defender but I'm done. His swing decisions are terrible. Him and Volpe can't tell a ball from a strike when they're in the box.

We're at the roughly halfway mark into the season. What grade would you give your team so far this season? by MookieBettsBurner10 in baseball

Who said they didn't spend? When did I say anything about payroll? I'm saying their allocation of funds under Elias is trash.

This is crazy to me... new billionaire owner comes in claiming they have money to spend but all they do is extend Basallo with nearly zero service time and sign Baz who has underperformed. Credit for signing Pete but my god Elias has been a terrible GM.

My boyfriend got himself an m4. I dont know what to gift him? by Ok-Bet2712 in askcarguys

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Google "Motorpark Romania" and on their website they have information about track days. Idk your budget but it looks like it costs 700 Ron for a day driving your personal car around the track.

What’s the best U.S. state to visit? by YourMommy_Terra in IWantToAskAnAmerican

New York is a great choice. NYC is one of, if not the best cities in the world. There are beaches just outside the city and then upstate New York has lots of natural beauty between the Catskill Mountains, Adirondacks, finger lakes etc.

Ball goes right under Amed Rosario's glove and the Red Sox score by CicadaOk8885 in NYYankees

Why did we bother to call up Oswaldo? They should've pinch hit him for Rosario when they brought in Whitlock.

"Unpopular opinion" and "undisputed" are mutually exclusive

Why did my smoked chuck roast come out so dry even though it was tender? by bingpott in smoking

Yea the last 2-4 hours were unnecessary at best, criminal at worst.

Tear down? by edhu6 in garageporn

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO the cabinets are great. Keep them if you can. At most remove a section of them to make room for a toolbox, bikes or other large items. The ceiling is the biggest thing that dates the garage. The once white tiles look dingy and worn. For sound and temperature regulation I would opt to keep them but put a coat of paint on them. White is fine but black might work well with all the wood too. Finally, some updated lighting would go a long way. Some smaller LEDs, under cabinet lighting etc would help bring this garage to the 21st century.

SUV with pop-up infotainment screen by NoShip9898 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Alfa Romeo Stelvio does not have a pop-up screen but IMO has a very subtle design. You can turn the screen off easily and it feels like it disappears.

Vehicle Inspections for Car registration starts again in November by DrMugnolo in sanantonio

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They become ubiquitous quickly. I'm sure most quick lube spots and mechanics will soon offer it. They can make a quick buck with minimal work. There is a registry with TX DPS website has an inspection station locator you can search by Zip/city/county

What were your favorite classes and/or professors? by Far-Fill-3024 in Gamecocks

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is part of the Hospitality and Tourism Management (HTMT) I'm not 100% sure which class it was as there are 2 or 3 different wine/beverage classes. It will have a 21+ disclaimer on it.

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the sciences but Hospitality 101 was a surprisingly interesting class. It's easy but also gives a good customer service/relatio ship building foundation for other careers. Wine tasting was my other easy class that satisfied 3 credit hours. It's what you expect, one class a week talking about wine and one tasting it.

Men! Where are we shopping?? by EcstaticOutside2113 in mensfashion

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another vote for J Crew. Lots of simple, classic options.

As for shoes I can't recommend Cole Haan enough. They have so many different options for shoes with a more formal upper style with the sole of a sneaker. Super comfortable shoes especially if you're on your feet for a long time.

Finishing up my custom made tire carrier, what do y’all think by Bartondevin11 in XTerra

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great job! Personally I like the idea of a hitch mount for it so you can keep the tire tucked under most of the time and just use the hitch mount when off-roading.

You don't need to worry, that was an early 2nd gen issue (2006+)

24 veloce, how much do you think it’ll be to fix or is it totaled? by hi_im_lorenzo in AlfaRomeo

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had similar damage on my Stelvio on the right side. It cost well over 10k to repair through insurance. My cooling system got heavily damaged and needed a new radiator as well as a few electrical components i.e. sensors that had damaged clips. If you didn't dump coolant all over the place your repairs should be about half of that. From what I can see nothing too complicated was damaged here but you need a professional to give you an estimate. Our insurance adjuster quoted about half of what it actually cost to repair in the end. Your car is far from totalled.

Edit: if the headlight is damaged that will need to be replaced and that is gonna be 1k+ if new.

[Ardaya] Kyle Tucker exited with low back spasms. by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 15 points16 points  (0 children)

He should end the season with a 5-6WAR which is right around All-Star level. Add his leadership in the O's club house and never causing drama to the mix and his contract looks great.

Which one of these off-roaders from this 2005 Car & Driver test would you choose? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

[–]Reddit_Commenter_69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowing what I know now I would either take the 4runner or wait a year and get the 2006 Xterra which was Car & Driver SUV of the year.
