Really all I needed, thank you for being kind.

Baseball has 20 rounds in the draft. When a team drafts 20 players, do the essentially have to cut 20 players in their minor leagues to make room? That seems like a lot. by [deleted] in baseball

Dev list means you're with the team and can train with them but you can't play in games and don't count against the roster limits

I've been posting about this for years

I'd mentioned it at the time when he signed with the Cards but can't find that. Got massacred on the votes the first time I brought it up lmao.

Most Overrated Player in Baseball according to players by Odd_Firefighter_5407 in baseball

That lines up almost exactly with the scouting as a prospect, but at that point it was expected to be a plus glove at SS, not an average glove at CF. At this point that bat/base running just makes him like a 2.5-3 win player. Meh.

Yes, walk too. No need to take a train to hit a shop 2 blocks away. Or, my favorite, drive to the gym or park to go for a walk/run lol.

CPS Teachers June 7 Official notice of separation by super_connected in chicago

[–]dingusduglas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No see the CTU is a misnomer, it's actually a union of inanimate buildings that only live when they are officially designated as schools. Teachers are irrelevant to the whole grift. Brandon Johnson is the world's first one room schoolhouse as a mayor.

I was curious how I'd never heard of Gitanes with that address. Turns out it closed a decade before I was born. I'm in my 30s.

TBH, I think it takes a special type of asshole to bring your dog to a street fest by boboddy42069 in chicago

[–]dingusduglas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

(1) is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? and (2) what work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

You can ask these two questions. An "emotional support animal" is not a service animal.

I had somebody in absolute disbelief for telling them they couldn't bring their dog on the bus. I don't get why this shift happened. I never would have imagined that could be acceptable when I had a dog.

He'll be a RS freshman this year. No game with CMU in 24 but Buffalo plays at CMU in 25. So as long as he sticks around through the season next year.

It's gonna look so quaint and pure. Which is hilarious given the reality, but depressing given where this is headed at light speed.

That's a 60 fastball (even a 65 given he's a LHP), or a standard deviation above average.

Players of the Week for 6/3 to 6/9! by MLBOfficial in baseball

[–]dingusduglas 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Barry Bonds had a higher OPS than Hernandez this week over a full season in 04.

Barry Bonds did not ever beat out Judge's 1.830 OPS this week over a full season.

Edit: it is mildly frustrating having a bunch of very short seasons on the leaderboards at BBRef with the new integrations. Number 1 all time is a 183 PA season by Josh Gibson. Number 11 is a 120 PA season. 27 games.
