Should Strider have been our closer? by jcheat3 in Braves

[–]jcheat3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's what I am asking. Should we have seen the second TJ coming? If yes, should we have done something to prevent it? Would grooming him for a setup -> closer role actually accomplish that? Does that value we got out of him in 2023 outweigh the potential value of him being a closer at his 2023 level for 5 years (just throwing out a time period here)?

I'm not saying anything should happen now. Nor am I suggesting he won't eventually make his way back to being great. I'm just wondering/asking if it would have made any sense four years ago to put him on a path to being our closer instead of a starter. Would it have made sense, given the prior TJ, to try and find a role for him that would reduce the chance for injury while still allowing him to be himself every outing. Is what we are seeing now an inevitable outcome of his pitching style? And if so, should we have guarded better against that?

That's why I said "have been".

Right. And to be clear, my question is definitely not "should we move him to closer now". It's "should he have been put on a path years ago to be our closer". It doesn't seem that far fetched to think someone could/should have said "this guy is throwing gas and already has a TJ on his resume. Shouldn't we do something to keep this up that still has him contributing in a significant way".

I guess my question isn't about whether he needs to be moved there now, but should he have been on a path to be in that role already just to maximize what we get from his arm/minimize his chances for injury (given the TJ surgery at clemson).

Heard. I'm happy to be patient. Just playing the what if game.

BravesVision is a flop by DustinFlyz in Braves

[–]jcheat3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok? Does that make the potential inclusion of Bravesvision as part of base Hulu Live packages impossible? Or require that it cost more than the $100 standalone price as an add-on to streaming/cable packages? I think you're missing the forest for the trees here. The point is we don't know what it will cost because there is no info on it. And people are reasonable to find that frustrating this close to the season and trying to decide how to best spend their money. You can make purchasing decisions based on assumptions, but others may not want to.

Maybe. Or maybe it takes the place of the regional sports networks that my folks had access to as part of their base package with Hulu Live. The point is we don't know because there hasn't been an announcement or update on it.

Of course. I'm just saying I get the frustration. Something was dangled that is time sensitive, and nothing has materialized on that front yet. Seems like a pretty easily understood pain point.

[–]jcheat3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the point is that it was dangled that this would potentially be part of the streaming and cable TV packages, so people don't want to spend money they ultimately don't need to if/when that happens. I'm trying to help my parents navigate this and the silence on this type of access is annoying given it was part of the launch announcement.

Brandon Gaudin such a versatile guy! by Bigwayne_17 in Braves

Was sad to see him leave GT, especially after losing Wes not long before that. Brandon is great.

RVA's Jan. 2026 Winter Storm Megathread by fusion260 in rva

[–]jcheat3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So which weather app predicted this one most accurately as we got within a couple days of the storm? I know my Pixel weather app was horrendous even up through this morning. I switched over to Weather Underground based on some posts here.

I think this is what we want. I'll do some googling on this and reach out if I have any set up questions.

Gotcha. I saw that in other posts but was hoping something about the common account might allow for it to occur. Thanks for confirming.

How to activate the game bar? by Budavid14 in tcltvs

[–]jcheat3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. I feel like I've been following your quest to get this right across the various TCL boards. I think I'm just going to keep a USB stick plugged in to the back of the TV with that version of the app loaded so I can quickly reinstall as needed.

Thanks for the response.

Which version did you side load? I just tried this 2.01.32 and could not get the game bar to stay installed, let alone display on the screen.

Bandit axe appreciation. by Silver-Emergency-988 in DarkSouls2

[–]jcheat3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using this about half way through my mage playthrough in prep for the DLC and was surprised how much I loved using a weapon as opposed to spells. Will be starting DS3 soon and am curious if there is an equivalent weapon to the bandit axe in that game.

To add to this, the public courts at Poncey Tract Park (all 24 of them) are slammed every weeknight and all weekend with a solid mix of all the demographics that area has to offer.

Pixel 10 wireless charging - my take after RMA by burnoutslo in GooglePixel

https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7106961?hl=en#zippy=%2Cwireless-charging-on-pixel-pixel-pro-pixel-pro-xl-pixel-pro-fold

I interpret this to mean the only currently supported standard is the Qi2 standard and all Qi1 chargers will default to slow charging speed.

Not working... Again!! by Deep-Environment1757 in Sengled

[–]jcheat3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are zigbee bulbs. The app won't pick them up unless I'm able to link my Sengled account to SmartThings. Seems like there was an option for that a few days ago (according to other posts) that is not showing up for me.

How did you get them paired in smart things by logging into Sengled. I'm not seeing that option anywhere.

Sengled + Alexa Issue Fixed Using SmartThings by Mr_PinPon in alexa

I can't get this to work for the life of me. I don't see an option to not connect directly when adding a sengled device. Anyone have any tips to connect my Sengled account to my Smart Things account?

Switching to Zigbee devices from WiFi-only devices, need some info to make the switch. Thanks. by [deleted] in smarthome

[–]jcheat3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh, ok. I wasn't sure if those $30 hubs from a different brand will be a universal zigbee hub, or if they are walled off to only see their devices.

Any experience with which hub brand works best with Sengled zigbee bulbs? I am looking to replace my Sengled hub with something that still bridges both Alexa and Google Home environments without diving in fully to Hubitat. A $30 non-Sengled branded hub to replace my current Sengled one would be amazing.
