If you’re wondering why hitters strike out more now than they used to, here’s a starting pitcher (in a high leverage playoff game) throwing fastballs under 80 mph less than 20 years ago. Most people don’t realize how much pitching has evolved in a short time.

Do I think the Yankees will score six in the eighth to come back tn? No
Would it be poetic if they did? Yes

We understand why beef prices are a problem right now. Ground beef is averaging $6.89 a pound, up 57% since 2021, and that's real pressure on American families.

But flooding the market with 300,000 metric tons of imported ground beef with no tariff for 90 days is not a solution for American ranchers. It's a short-term price fix that puts more downward pressure on the cattle producers who are already struggling to stay viable. Trump has not said which countries this beef is coming from or who committed to the 25% price reduction he's promising.

American cattle ranchers have been dealing with years of drought, high feed costs, and a shrinking herd. The answer to that is not more cheap imported beef with lower standards competing against them on shelves with no country of origin label required to tell you the difference.

We will continue to source 100% American. That is not changing.

Thank you ESPN for making the Yankee game look so shitty I checked to make sure the settings of my TV weren’t messed up. Top notch production for the 120th game of the season.

Can we finally turn the Anthony Volpe page?

The kid grew up dreaming of being a Yankee, got to wear the pinstripes, and by every account gave that organization everything he had. That deserves respect.

Be excited about George Lombard Jr. I am too. But why does that have to come with taking shots at Volpe? That’s weird.

It’s always the people who’ve never competed on a stage anywhere close to that level who are the loudest tearing him down.

Turn the page. Appreciate what Volpe gave, root for what’s next, and stop pouring salt in the wound. Respect costs nothing.

Let's suppose that Mamdani Marts--by selling 30% below retail--put all the mom and pop NYC grocery stores out of business.

The people who normally freak out about Walmart doing this, will then oppose him right

[The Italian American Civil Rights League @TheIACRL]

The Italian American Civil Rights League REJECTS Anthony Fauci and hereby deems him a disgrace to our people.

This vile man forgot EVERYTHING it means to be an Italian American and now represents everything our heritage stands against.

He deserves a long prison sentence.

[Kevin O'Leary aka Mr. Wonderful @kevinolearytv]

Margins in grocery are 2-3% pre-tax margins so reducing selling prices by 30% across the board will guarantee that the stores will lose money on every sale. Who will pay for those losses? You the @nyc tax payers . You are getting fuc$ed!

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Firmly rooted in the Word of Jesus, reading the Gospel every day, never stop dreaming of a land where there is peace and fraternity, nor stop looking at the world with wonder, nor stop facing the future with the light of hope. Do not let anything or anyone steal your hope.

So let me get this straight

FanDuel hired Bryce Harper to make a thank you video for a customer to keep him addicted to gambling, and it worked, and the guy lost $2 million, had his house repossessed, and had to *literally* be talked off a ledge?

We MUST get gambling out of MLB

"We love Sobe we really do. People have been trying to bring it back for a while now but they couldn't do it. The Democrats wouldn't let them because they hate our country. But we're doing it. We're bringing it back. And we're doing it with glass. Do you remember the glass? Great big thick bottles of glass, it was incredible. You could throw it across a parking lot and it wouldn't break can you believe that?"

[Tone III @Tonethethird]

If you think an MLB pitcher is being “racist” because he said “sit down boy” you really need to start getting more social interaction in your life
