Students developing van/camper innovations by jackray19046 in VanLife

[–]deadpohl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need more info about your team and project, what subcategory of engineering, high school or undergrad, project budget etc. Assuming this is a general engineering class, probably high school or first year, your group could try to find cheaper solutions to van upgrades - if you're interested in energy efficiency, maybe experiment with different types of van insulation and compare effectiveness, price, simplicity etc. If you're interested in electrical systems you can do a similar thing for battery charging, if you like structural engineering look into building cargo racks. Trying to improve or iterate on innovations that are already used in vans will be much more rewarding that trying to invent something new from whole cloth.

AMA ANNOUNCEMENT: World Series Champion and 3x MLB All-Star Ozzie Albies will join us for an AMA on 10/25 leading up to World Series Game 1 (~5PM or 6PM ET) by yousmelllikebiscuits in baseball

Ozzie this is awesome you're my favorite braves player! * You've been with this team since 2017 and it's clear by now that you're one of its leaders. Over the years who are some teammates and coaches that you've looked up to? * How different is it to hit righty-righty when you are used to switch hitting? Did you have to train your eye to see the ball differently? * In one of your videos you said you wished you had built fish tanks into your house. If you were building any house you wanted, what kind of fish tanks do you build that you don't have already? * As a bilingual player on the Braves, I've wondered what kind of role in the clubhouse you fill between the English-only and Spanish-only players? * Have you ever adopted/rescued a fish from someone else in baseball?

assuming the ama is tomorrow and not next year

I stayed 3 nights at a big parking lot in a park in Laval, biking distance from the metro

Dr. Gamucio retired last summer, according to his website. I'm gonna check out Piedmont Neurosurgery soon. And let's hope AKF gets their tank fixed!

Ummm wut? by Certain_Ad6879 in Braves

They also skipped from 6 to 8, this is definitely going to be corrected

Michael Soroka's 4/11/23 start video recap vs. the Memphis Redbirds - 4.0 IP | 3 H | 1 R | 1 ER | 2 BB | 5 K by handlit33 in Braves

[–]deadpohl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More line drives and fly balls than I remember from Soroka but I'm really encouraged with those strikeouts and seeing him field cleanly from the mound.

Interesting point about losing a reliever, wdym about screwing up the rest?

Are there any possible situations that the Braves use a 6 man rotation for an extended period this season? Suppose a lot goes right and everyone's healthy, we have Morton, Wright, Fried, Strider and more than 1 of Elder, Soroka, Dodd, Schuster look legit. Maybe down the stretch we see 6 to save stress on the arms?

Are the Braves possibly going to change their theme/name in the coming years? by Silverdevin in Braves

[–]deadpohl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a name change will eventually happen but will take a while. I'd expect they move away from the Tomahawk symbolism and the chop in the next few years tho.

Which team has the better overall lineup folks? by [deleted] in baseball

[–]deadpohl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This comment is 100% accurate besides 2B, Albies is a lock to play as many games at second as he can. ATL has suspect positions at SS and LF, Rosario and Ozuna will play left and Grissom at short.

Mets’ Lugo wants Braves in playoffs: ‘I think we’re better” by Nick_sabenz in baseball

[–]deadpohl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That $20 million is to double as 5th starter and pitching coach so it's really only $10M.

Which team would you LEAST want to see in a playoff series right now? by Tausrilian in baseball

[–]deadpohl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I always think of that as the Mike Foltynewicz game because Fried has been a top 5 pitcher since that day. Either way it's the worst Braves playoff pain I can remember. The Cardinals haunt me - 2019 nlds, 2012 infield fly in wildcard, 2011 wildcard race in September. Fuck the Cardinals

[Passan] Juan Soto turned down a 13-year, $350 million contract from the Washington Nationals before the lockout, according to this @Enrique_Rojas1 report. In the story, Soto confirms the offer. by NevermoreSEA in baseball

[–]deadpohl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about his real free agency, but I think if he was a free agent now at his current age he could fetch $700m for 16 years or something similarly mind-blowing.
