One time I took a Meyer's Briggs test real early in the morning. The result: IBMIPJs

@SleeperAstros Can’t get a B when his OPS didn’t improve from last year and he’s below average vs the league. C at best.

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@LDaddow Yep. Welcome to twitter, where people talk. Sorry if you were confused! Go 'Stros!

What changed is that he knows his party is going to get trounced in November, and it's partly because of gas prices, and now he's flailing around trying to fix it (oops, too late!).

Today Trump announced a deal to supply Russian diesel to U.S. and global markets. Just three weeks ago, he signed a law targeting major buyers of Russian oil and gas with tariffs of up to 100%. The goal was to cut off funding for Putin’s war against Ukraine. So what changed?

@LDaddow That’s how I see it…seems pretty obvious.

@ryanbokros I think they are happy to play less and make more.

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@ryanbokros feels like the league getting out ahead of negotiations by proposing something they know the players will go for. Going to be a lot of this "win the PR battle" stuff in the coming weeks.

As a homicide detective, I can say with all of my being that there is no lesson learned in seeing someone die. But there is a price. And that price is your peace. Your decency. And the soul of our society.
We don’t have to be this way, this fake tough but real ugly way. Stop

Calm down Microsoft Authenticator, no one is trying to log in to do my work, I promise

@RMartzall @BenOndaTop Which is exactly why you trade him because Boras will test the market and the team that wins a multi-team bidding war for a star almost always regrets it. Inevitably, two or three of the bidders are idiots, and you don’t want to outbid them.

@TherealReavus Just did this with my second oldest last weekend. It will be alright…the adult diapers are much better these days.

Best argument for term limits I’ve ever heard. “I can’t do my constitutional role of protecting the country because I am afraid I might lose a seat where my job is to protect the country.”
It’s kinda disgusting. You swore an oath for God’s sake.

@michaelschwab13 But Crane isn't going to full trust anybody at this point because the last time he fully trusted a GM his team cheated, and that scar remains.

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@gary50210200 @BenOndaTop Hey, I hope you are right. I just don’t have a ton of confidence that he will be an all-star caliber player next year or the year after.

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@gary50210200 @BenOndaTop Because he doesn’t seem to excel at a few skills that are particularly hard to get better at…bat-to-ball and swing decisions. Not impossible, but hard, which is maybe why he didn’t improve as a hitter this year at all despite crossing 1000 PAs.

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@gary50210200 @BenOndaTop Yes, our outfield was the worst in the MLB though so that’s not saying much. I just want to know why you believe he has star potential. What do you see that projects?

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@AstrosJosh 1 yr of excellent defense and 25 HRs is surely worth 8-$10M, no?

[Tyson Kirksey @tysonkirksey]

@gary50210200 @BenOndaTop We didn't need Tucker so we didn't rush him up. Cam has over 1k career PAs. Tucker was an All-Star by that point. Cam isn't close to that. By your definition, every poor player is just "more development" away from being a star. How do you figure?
