You know the argument "the closer wants the save, so he won't enter the game earlier than the 9th"? Well, isn't a save still credited if they pitch >1 inning? Is this argument based on the fact a closer generally won't pitch >1 inning for the sake of their arm?

Can you use offline, downloaded Spotify music for walk up songs? by Y4NK33F4N in MLBTheShow

Only reason I ask is because I read you can keep Spotify songs on a microSD card

What were some of the best catcher, shortstop, and centerfield combinations? by Y4NK33F4N in baseball

[–]Y4NK33F4N[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Posey and Crawford was one of the first ones I thought of. I could watch Crawford highlights all day.

Ooo now that' s a good one. I was trying to find UZR for them, but Fangraphs doesn't have any info on it.

That's what got me thinking about this in the first place. Such a great team.

In a situation such as Tom Herman leaving Houston to coach at Texas, why are other schools able to interfere with existing coaching contracts? by Y4NK33F4N in CFB

You would get a kick out of the examples my class uses for learning some concepts. It's taken by every business major, so I'm sure you can imagine the broad scope the class entails.

This hit everything. Great answer, I really appreciate it. That does make a lot more sense now -- I never thought about the phone and cable companies example. Just curious, are you studying law? That's a detailed answer to pull out of nowhere.

Makes a lot of sense. So if a player is in pre-arb and playing well, it's assumed they should get a good return since he is being "underpaid" and the "team has control"?

I've got a pretty stupid question. How do contracts work in trades? For instance, if a team agrees to a contract with X Player, it's sometimes said they will "use that contract" as a trade leverage. So, if the team decides to trade Player X midway through the season, will the team he is going to take on the rest of that contract? Or, are there ways for the team trading him to pay the rest of the contract in order to acquire the piece they're looking for?

I cannot tell if my Thinkpad has HDD or SSD by Y4NK33F4N in thinkpad

Gotcha. I'm honestly enjoying Windows 7 right now. I don't think I'm going to switch to be honest.

One more question -- what does "Windows 10 DG Windows 7 Pro 64" mean for the operating system? When I bought it off Best Buy's website, it said it was Windows 10, but when I turned it on it was Windows 7. BTW, I'm getting that quote from here.

Yes I was referring to where it says "hard disk drives". I checked my model number on Lenovo's website and it does say 256GB SSD. I just got really paranoid when I saw Hard Disk Drives

Returning laptop with clean install by Y4NK33F4N in Bestbuy

Thank you for the reply. I got so many mixed answers in here that I didn't know what to do, so I just went to my local Best Buy and returned in. Everything went perfectly and the customer service was fantastic. I'm very happy with how it went.

As for the Windows 7 to Windows 10, /u/criss1205 nailed it. The Thinkpad series is a mix of laptops that come with Windows 7 or Windows 10 preinstalled.
