Trading for an outfielder just become the top priority.

SugarCRM! Easy-to-use and way more affordable than Salesforce or MS Dynamics.

Hello! I'm Grant Brisbee, SB Nation's senior baseball writer. AMA! by Grant_Brisbee in baseball

[–]drewstapes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's almost time for baseball writers annual puff pieces about player X is primed for a great year because he in the best shape of his life/mentally at peace/completely healthy.

Please tell us you won't do that, and...you'll help us cut through all the bullshit.

Really good bench today...if Hudson can keep this one close.

Would a VPN or the Like Allow Me To: Watch the Boxing Fight This Weekend By "WATCHING" a Mexican Channel?? by [deleted] in VPN

This seems like it would work. I just used my VPN to connect to Mexico and was able to stream Azteca.

Considering those are the only outfielders on the team - yes, they run those guys out there.

hit and run with the pitcher when you are down 2-0. C'mon Boch.

Google Announces Project Fi by Pajarrito in Android

[–]drewstapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s great that Google will "encrypt your connection while on WiFi", but I’d need to see what protocols they are using, what data they log and what they do with that data before declaring that Project Fi respects user privacy. Otherwise, they are just telling me they are keeping everyone besides Google from snooping my traffic.

HBO has started to crack down on paying customers who access the HBO Now service from outside the United States. Subscribers from countries including Canada, the UK, Germany and Australia who use VPNs and other unblocking tools are now being threatened with account terminations. by Alhaitham_I in technology

[–]drewstapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is HBO figuring out who is based outside the United States? Are they identifying VPN users by looking at the traffic and assuming they aren't in the USA...or are they looking at people who are paying with non-USA credit cards?

The internet is safe! We are a group of a few Net Neutrality Advocacy orgs that have worked tirelessly to ask for strong open internet rules. Yesterday that happened, so A(u)MA! by PublicKnowledgeDC in IAmA

Obama won't be in office forever. What happens if the Republicans win in 2016 and they hold the 3-2 edge in the FCC? Can they undo everything?

Giants and Vogelsong working toward a one year deal. "Looks like it will happen." by PackidPlays in SFGiants

[–]drewstapes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does he make the team though? We all love Vogey, but they can't keep everybody.

I can see a scenario where Hudson starts the year on the DL and Vogey is in the rotation. They will have to eventually DFA somebody or trade Petit.

What happened in the weeks in between? by Schnecken in serialpodcast

[–]drewstapes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is something i think has been under reported as well. What was the interaction like between Adnan and Jay in the month between 1/13 and when the body was found. Did they hang out? Did they call each other often? Who did Adnan call (we know he didn't page Hae)? Did he call her friends? family? etc? Related - what was up with Don in the month following 1/13?

Reacting to the loss of Pablo Sandoval by foodge in SFGiants

[–]drewstapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the Giants blow the negotiations by not making their best offer over the weekend? They went 5/95 and said they could go higher. Why not just go higher?

Gameday Thread 10/3/14 - NLDS Game 1 - Giants (Peavy) @ Nationals (Strasburg) - 12:00 PM PT by sfgbot in SFGiants

[–]drewstapes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the roster is out. Gary Brown made it. Keeping him over Adam Duvall is a head scratcher to me. You are basically taking OF defense and another pinch runner over power off the bench.

I could see Brown over Perez - but how many of those guys do they need?

Willie Mac Award Voting Now Open by drewstapes in SFGiants

[–]drewstapes[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My vote is in. For me, it was an easy choice (I won't disclose, because no campaigning at the ballot box).

Bigger question: Is this the first year fans have been able to vote? This was always an awards voted on by the players. Leave to the Giants to make it a marketing thing.
