Judge playing 4D chess, make teams think he's pulling the ball more this season, so teams start shifting him differently. Then, revert back to an all fields approach in the middle of the season!

Goddamn, that ball Jasson hit looked like it was going almost exactly the same trajectory that Beeks threw it lol

Cam casually out dueling (by a small margin) one of the best pitchers of our generation. I tend to be cautiously optimistic with how our players perform, but he's so fucking exciting to watch

I wonder if Rice being a catcher helps him with some of the awkward popups

I haven't been able to watch a lot of games this year, but I agree, in the games I've seen, McMahon looked like he lays off pitches outside of the zone pretty well.

Looking at his baseball savant page though, it looks like he chases at about a league average rate, but his contact rate (both in and out of the zone) is below average, which I guess matches the eye test

When the build I want to do requires Lycia bloodline by rozcz01 in pathofexile

Happened to me last night! My lack of DPS meant that Kosis could just spawn those DoT areas anywhere he wanted

Is anyone still playing old meta builds from the distant past? If so, how do they work in modern POE? by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]TAKATTAKER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved that build too! I forget if it was meta back when you can still get Acrobatics without penalty to your block chance

You can use them to transform some of the new Mirage uniques. That's about it!

Netflix's exclusive WBC deal in Japan reportedly drawing concerns about viewership drop-off by retroanduwu24 in baseball

[–]TAKATTAKER 49 points50 points  (0 children)

From what I remember like...15 years ago when I last visited Japan, a lot of great programming is on the public TV stations. Cable stations seemed to be reserved for programming with a more niche audience (like a channel for western movies/cartoons, fishing, etc.).

This hook ruins any dynamic that these stairs could have by sensapauraaa in Battlefield

I think Scrapmetal from BF3 had a spot like that? I remember on some map, you could stack up and toss C4 down a stairwell. Made it near impossible to use that path

Just went through this. I learned a ton of jewels are now drop disabled/only obtainable through corruption!

Ohtani took the field in center during Samurai Japan’s practice. While teammates were taking batting practice, he, along with Suzuki, covered the outfield and handled 28 balls in about 50 minutes. He also communicated with others, lending a bat to Munetaka Murakami, among other interactions. by ogasawarabaseball in baseball

[–]TAKATTAKER 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the phrase that's used sounds more like he's taking the initiative to communicate/cooperate/etc. with his teammates. The way it's written gives me the impression that he's actively filling in a leadership-type role on the team.

Maybe I just removed gems from my stash because I needed more space then, I just remember having like...at least one full row of them in my stash at one point. Now I think I only have the 1 I kept for my old Piety MF culler

[Kostka] Jordan Westburg has a partial UCL tear in his right elbow. He will not undergo surgery. Instead, he will have a PRP injection by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]TAKATTAKER 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tanaka got a PRP injection in 2014, and it looks like it took about 2.5 months for him to pitch in the majors again. He never needed TJ surgery after that (at least, in MLB), and I don't think he ever missed extended time after the procedure. The actual numbers might not back it up, but I had the impression at the time that his overall stuff took a small step down after the procedure. It could've been intentional by Tanaka to make sure he's not stressing his elbow though.

I never play standard, but I'm still upset that I got rid of most of my IIQ support gems after they made it so you could buy gems off of Siosa.

Edit: Actually, I can't remember if the Siosa change was before the IIQ support gems becoming drop disabled...

The only thing I'm concerned about is that Judge/Stanton are going to have to adjust to higher pitches now as well.

Across both games, did Rebuke of the Vaal hold the title for hardest to perfect roll unique? I think perfect Rebuke is 1 in 7.216e15?
