bought the book several months ago to read. Haven’t started it yet though. I generally don’t care for fiction, but I really liked The Martian (so much I read it twice actually) so I figured I’d check this one out.

Read it. It’s a very fun and easy read. I think I enjoyed the Martian a bit more. But not an incredibly noticeable amount more. Weir definitely has a style.

, I read she's a half a second off from her normal pace and about 1.39 seconds off from the lead. It's good for her to overcome adversity so soon after an injury, but I don't know how much good she's going to do for the team.

Uses metrics to support argument -- good. she's 1.39 seconds off the lead.

Ignores metrics to destroy argument -- bad. even with a shitty/conservative run, she was faster than two other Americans that could replace her.

Astros, Jack Winkler Agree To Minor League Contract

quote:
He appeared in 14 games, starting four of them in the middle infield. Winkler went 4-16 with a stolen base and committed two errors in 44 1/3 innings of defensive work. He otherwise spent the season at Triple-A Jacksonville, where he hit .225/.299/.333 with a 28% strikeout rate in his first action at the level. Winkler was an asset on the bases in the minors, stealing 25 bags in 76 games without getting thrown out. He played mostly third base in Triple-A with sporadic action up the middle.

This is the kind of dominating front office move that wins championships.

They both were good choices. They also prove Trump's ability to judge character - 100 million democrats in the country and he was able to pick the only two that are sane and hire them.

Very much this. But, in my opinion, if the democrats would shut up and let Trump do his thing, people will see that he is ultimately a very moderate president. He truly could be the guy that benefits the most of the country compared to any president in my lifetime.

Both sides are buying time to prepare for the inevitable. Trump is not going to settle for just a nuclear deal akin to the one he cancelled. We are going to hit the mullahs, timing and patience my friends.

Exactly. Right now Trump has very little international support for actions in Iran.

He can let his guys make an attempt at diplomacy first to appease Europe, India and the ME.

After talks fail and he drops the hammer, he will say, we tried, they lied, now they died.

I think the point is it's not even worth sharing even with the qualifier that it's a rumor. It suggests that you might believe it or perhaps want to believe it. Both of which are pretty silly is about the most polite way to put it.

Astros: GM Dana Brown and manager Joe Espada are each entering their final season under contract, with Brown hired in January 2023 and Espada in November 2023. Earlier this month, Astros owner Jim Crane didn’t entirely close the door on the possibility of an extension for either Brown or Espada, but said “I think we’ll go through this year like we always do, evaluate it and then make the decision at the end of the year.” Reading between the lines, it certainly seems like the spotlight will be on Brown and Espada, especially since the Astros are coming off their first non-playoff season since 2016. While the team’s laundry list of injuries is a valid excuse for their 2025 letdown, some personnel changes might well be coming if Houston can’t get back into the postseason hunt this year.

Too soon to bring back the Jeff from soccer exile? Who do they bring in to replace Espada?
