every giancarlo stanton home run triggers a cutscene

[MLB @MLB]

GIANCARLO STANTON
DOES IT AGAIN
FOUR STRAIGHT GAMES

ARE YOU KIDDING?!

[Shanthi @ssc627]

@IanMBrowne the answer to questions like this is never ACTUALLY "hey man, you're right", this is killing me, Ian.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

@OriolesFanRyan I can't believe I didn't even consider it was all your fault

[Shanthi @ssc627]

the Giants have never once given Buster Posey a fair deal I’ll tell you what lol

[Shanthi @ssc627]

never point out that a player is doing a good job

@Paul_CasellaMLB the Angels, meanwhile, are on pace to win 62 games

[Shanthi @ssc627]

@JayCat11 he's definitely a full adult, and we know this now because his first instinct was to lie down

[Shanthi @ssc627]

It betrays a lack of understanding as to the *lifelong* consequences of being abused. The overwhelming majority of victims of sexual violence are women and girls. As with everything in life, women are expected to go on, so we do. No one's actually ever the same.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

I need men to hear me when I say this because I know it isn't intentional: statements like this cause a profound amount of pain.

If you believe he did *any* of what he was accused of (by multiple women, over time, who did not know each other) -- what price has he paid?

[Seth McClung @Seth_3773]

Great for @BauerOutage I’m not sure how he doesn’t end up in AAA soon and in the bigs if he keeps this up.

I know all the stories but good lord this guy has paid his price.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

THEY FIRED JASON VARITEK, EVEN

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

The Boston Red Sox fired manager Alex Cora, hitting coach Peter Fatse, bench coach Rámon Vazquez and game-planning coach Jason Varitek, sources tell ESPN.

While the Red Sox won today, they are 10-17 and in last in the American League East. Massive change is coming in Boston.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

@mike_petriello I’m honestly crying. Listen a man lost his job, that sucks for him. But as a turn of events, comedy gold

[Mike Petriello @mike_petriello]

Getting fired after winning 17-1 is one of the funniest things I think I have ever seen.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

@castrovince some part of me wishes it would happen, because I'd love to see how we, the people paid to write for MLB, would claw back from four years of finally getting to be honest about what we think of him

[Eric Hosmer @TheRealHoz35]

Hey @LanceBroz it’s one thing to put words in my mouth on a podcast episode or if we’re having some fun, but to do it on a network broadcast ain’t it …..

Get my number from @CliffFloyd30 let’s talk

I say this once a day, to be fair

Here's how fastball velocity has changed since 2000.

Pre-pitch tracking data compiled via retired player opinions

[Shanthi @ssc627]

I’m not in favor of brigading or attacking a person regardless. Criticism should always be respectful because it ALWAYS can be. But to defend AI use based on individual circumstances ignores that there are many people dealing with many things and not using AI.

[Shanthi @ssc627]

It is, clearly, not safe to have a dissenting opinion on this issue. All I’m going to say is that it is absolutely wild the stance we collectively seem to be taking on using AI to do a fundamental part of your job in an industry that is being ravaged by AI slop.
