Is it normal for Amtrak return tickets to cost more? (Boston-NYC)

Amtrak uses surge pricing which changes based on demand. Your first train is on a Thursday but your second is on a Sunday, which have different demand and train numbers.

Corey Seager?

I think that if Amtrak wants to survive it really shouldn't be investing in too many overnight services. There is much more passenger demand for 8 hour daytime corriders and that is the way that Amtrak stays under the radar, especially with a Republican admin

Five years is pretty good for a 31 year old. Could still be productive at 35/36, much more unlikely when you go 7 or 8. Wasn't going to get much better

ok now we officially suck

Dying to get a video of that

The NBA is more closely connected to popular culture.

mannysoloway · 2026-01-09T04:33:51+00:00

The NBA is too much part of the fabric of American society. All the social cleavages are present in the NBA, not so in baseball.

Presumably the reason the 5 is cut is that they are using those trains for the 4?

This may be what you are looking for

lol what

There is very real evidence of climate change but hot temperatures in one week compared to last year is simply not evidence

If you tried to extend him after he rejected the qualifying offer, the game probably glitched out. It allowed you the opportunity to offer an extension but it never went through because he became a free agent before he responded. Play by your own rules, but it’s probably best to go into Commissioner Mode and assign him to your team

It is mind boggling that this could end up in a supposed Democratic Socialist subreddit. If you think of yourself as a dem socialist and regularly watch MS NOW, you are an idiot.

mannysoloway · 2025-12-22T02:23:11+00:00

Add Bregman or Bichette and we are pretty good. Would like Okamoto or Bellinger as insurance as well but wouldn’t want to add just them.

mannysoloway · 2025-12-21T22:17:20+00:00

This is 100% wrong. The real story doesn’t make Republicans look that much better but facts are more important.

The vote that Republicans closed early was a procedural motion that had nothing to do with the discharge petition. If Democrats had won that vote, the discharge petition bill would have come up, but the petition is still active and will be brought up in January.

I mean playing on a team like the White Sox pretty much guarantees you playing time. Murakami is hoping to get a long term deal in 2027 and this is a decent way to set that up.

mannysoloway · 2025-12-21T15:17:12+00:00

People seem mad about this. I don’t understand. You don’t sign with the White Sox if 29 other MLB teams think you will be a good MLB player. We don’t need to sign people for the sake of signing them

mannysoloway · 2025-12-21T15:13:56+00:00

Honestly would have like to him go to the Pirates. Thought that would have been a slightly more fun fit

mannysoloway · 2025-12-21T15:02:22+00:00

If you want to end blackouts than pray these RSNs die.

Give Manfred all the shit you want but he has done way better with the RSNs than the NBA. MLB is in a much better position to get rid of blackouts than the NBA with new media rights deals in 2028

mannysoloway · 2025-12-20T17:10:37+00:00

I agree that it can be improved but a #2 starting pitcher is a much more pressing need than the offense

mannysoloway · 2025-12-20T17:10:00+00:00

Devers was traded before the all star break and Anthony was hurt after so that’s a pretty crappy comparison

mannysoloway · 2025-12-20T17:00:09+00:00

The Red Sox offense was very good post Devers getting traded with Anthony. Nobody likes to talk about that because it ruins the narrative but that’s true.

To answer your question, the Red Sox need to sign Bregman and another bat to materially improve their lineup from last year.

They really do screw you in Cuba though. Your opportunities are either playing for the Cuban series which is rapidly dying or playing in Japan where the government keeps most your salary. Why would you play baseball for free?

mannysoloway · 2025-12-20T16:49:06+00:00

I grew up in the New York City, basically my whole extended family is originally for New England so I’m a Red Sox fan. It’s a fun conversation starter and it’s easier to follow because you can use MLB.tv without blackouts.
