Let me tell you about trying to get someone to not put the nice, expensive chef's knife in the dishwasher standing point down so the tip breaks off Better than the story a former SAS baseball goon poster told me about a former roommate who decided to soak their extremely well seasoned cast iron in soapy water over a weekend

He went through a battery of tests at the hospital; everything checked out well," Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. "He had a CT scan, and it's negative. He's still there. They're going to keep them for a couple more hours just to be safe, but we expect him to be released this evening. I would say right now he's doing well." Sounds like he got lucky, that looked brutal

Judging fly balls off of the bat through the fisheye lens would be interesting. Everything looks like a bomb, then it switches to the field view and it's a harmless popout to shallow left

Jupiter Jazz posted:Growing up, I don't even recall seeing the Astros on tv much. After the Oilers left our household was a basketball household and basketball was the sport I grew up with. My friends and I would go to Astros games occasionally but I had no idea how to follow them. They used to show a lot of Astros games on that Star network that most people didn't know existed, I think it was channel 52 or something over the air. It's been so long that I don't remember exactly though Basketball was easy to watch because it was always on one of the major local networks. I want to say UPN? Going to Astros games in the 90s SUCKED because the parking lot at the Astrodome was a nightmare to get in and out of and then you sit on Kirby for an hour. Basically the same experience as going to a Texans game now unless you use the light rail

bawfuls posted:If players actully wanted to bring up the "middle class" and lower among their ranks, they could fight for a higher minimum, shorter service time before free agency, a better alternative to arbitration, etc etc. All these things could be fought for within a system that lacks a salary floor & cap. I could start farting rainbows too. The owners will never agree to changing minimums or service times unless players concede to a salary cap Which at this point maybe they should? The tax is a de facto cap at this point anyway with even the wealthy teams treating it that way

Edward Mass posted:Wait, we're a WEEK away from baseball????? Theoretically Or a week away from the season being called off bawfuls posted:The players could and should fight for all those things if they're willing to flex their labor power. Could be a soft cap like the NBA  And yeah it would be a huge concession, one that they would never get back, so the owners would have to make it worth it. Like cutting down arb years to 4, or even 3. Higher starting salaries pre-arb. An arbitration process regarding teams using bad faith tactics to keep players from reaching incentives. Things like that.

He did strike out in his at-bat, but I'm sure you'd be just as good as he was. If he stood in the box against MLB pitching without getting embarrassed by a curveball that makes him dive into the dirt before dropping into the zone, respect
