You think these guys like José Ramírez?

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

For just the 2nd time since 2016, José Ramírez did not receive a single MVP vote (just an insane statistic).

Parker Messick does finish 13th, followed by Steven Kwan in 15th & Cade Smith in 21st for the Guardians.

AL MVP Yordan Alvarez

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

@jayhaykid Obviously these kind of aren't my arguments since I thought all the right guys won, but were all of these seasons really so historic that not ONE writer was willing to vote for the other guys I mentioned?

Like you said, it takes away all the juice.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

It's like no one wants to get dunked on for daring to dissent.

All the MVP & Cy Young winners would've been my picks, but... unanimous? Outside of maybe PCA I could've made a real case for a number of players but no one bothers to try anymore.

[nugget chef @jayhaykid]

The MVP and Cy Young awards being unanimous speaks to a larger phenomenon: as understanding of player value has reached something of a consensus, the drama of awards season has been drained. This is a juice-free awards season and I have to admit I miss arguing with people.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

@jayhaykid AL Cy Young's tougher, but I'd listen to Cease because of the Ks & FIP (if you wanna go the WPA route Rasmussen & even Cade Smith could be fun convos).

NL Cy Young? I wouldn't be upset at all if Sánchez won it. Wiped the floor in bWAR & is one of the few true workhorses left.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Keep in mind, this was a day after the Buckeyes had won the national championship & 12 days after they had ALREADY BEATEN ALABAMA.

He said the same thing on TV the night of the CFP title game. His career as a sports-only commentator was over after that. https://t.co/UDzEH7EyhH

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

Yes, I believe Alabama would beat Ohio State if they played again next week. Vegas agrees with me.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Nearly a decade ago, I had colleagues in the know telling me about Clay: "It's not genuine."

I stand by my theory that he turned to political grifting after being humiliated during the 2014-15 CFP, so I guess we can blame Urban Meyer & Ohio State for his career trajectory?

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

I’m honestly surprised that people are surprised by this. It’s one of the worst kept secrets in our business that dude has been lying about his political beliefs for a long time. I also have some receipts, but I’ll keep those to myself.

Make no mistake, he isn’t the only one. There’s a lot of people in our business who are cosplaying for clicks and views. It’s one of the most shameful and dishonest things that one can do.

I applaud Nick for keep it real.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Cook his ass, Nick.

[nick wright @getnickwright]

I’m not going to go back and forth with you (it’s football season for God’s sake!), but I can’t believe you’re actually denying this interaction so I’ll jog your memory:

August of 2016, during the Olympics, at the (now shuttered) Intercontinental hotel, a couple blocks from the Fox lot off Pico.

We had just finished a night show that no longer exists where (among other things) we debated the Summer Olympics (it was a bad segment because we didn’t have rights to the footage, so we could only show still pictures of what we were talking about) & went to have a drink/meal with a colleague who was on the show with us.

The exchange I discussed happened in the lobby bar, at a table with said colleague, and then after I said what I needed to say to to you I went outside and bummed a cigarette off a valet.

We haven’t spoken in person since.

You know as well as I do this is 100% true, and verifiable, by the colleague that was with us and/or our then bosses who contemporaneously heard the story.

We actually also had the same agent at the time, and you and I both know he heard the story and could confirm it as well.

So, I’ll pull a page out of your book; I’ll bet you $1,000,000 I’m telling the truth.

I assume you’ll pretend you never saw this tweet & continue the grift. And that’s cool, but we both know what the facts are.

Also, let this be a reminder that while you have found an amazing lane where you often are actually the smartest guy in the room, this ain’t that lane. So my advice would be to tread carefully.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

From the U.S. Open to the Olympics to Notre Dame football, Dan was a true professional & a fixture of my sports fandom.

This is stunning & heartbreaking. Praying for Hannah & their daughters. 🙏🏻

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Guardians closer Cade Smith earns 2nd-team All-MLB honors after receiving votes for both the AL Reliever of the Year & Cy Young awards.

He was 7th in Cy Young voting & 2nd in Reliever of the Year, finishing just 13 points behind winner Louis Varland.

That might be the biggest win of Kenny Atkinson's career.

Incredible effort by the Cavs tonight.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

@shawndunagan Literally found after like 20 years of no one caring lol

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

In the final year of the bowl system as we know it, Kent State will once again miss a bowl game.

It may be multiple generations before they play in the postseason again.

[Kent State Football @KentStFootball]

Final from Bowling Green.

@shawndunagan The trophy they found collecting dust in a closet?

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

College football died the moment Rutgers & Maryland joined the Big Ten.

[Pete Thamel @PeteThamel]

Sources: Rutgers coach Greg Schiano will return to coach the Scarlet Knights in 2027. It will be his 19th season as head coach at the school, which have come over two stints. Rutgers is 2-7 and amid back-to-back losing seasons. Schiano has the most wins (101) in school history.

[McNeil @REFLOG18]

Last 4 days in Ohio:

Ohio State loses 41-28
Cavs lose 109-97
Browns lose 23-22
Myles Garrett records 3 sacks in his Rams return
Cavs lose again 112-124
The Edmund Fitzgerald anniversary reminds us all of the fragility of life

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

I'm not convinced Kenny Atkinson is on the flight back to Cleveland

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Understand why McGonigle won it, but Parker Messick put up historic rookie pitching numbers for a superior team.

He would've had my vote.

[Dave Yost @DaveYostOH]

One cannot help but wonder if Coach Day consulted Alex Triantafilou in construction of this week’s game plan.

[Tyler Carey @TC_CLE]

Can’t expect to win consistently with that many penalties & a defense that wilts in the clutch.

Still would rather see Shedeur under center going forward.
