How much more rope does Abreu get?
At least his velocity was back up to normal today. Hopefully the first two starts were just a random dead arm to start the year

Our outfield platoon look like all bad options

I will give him credit though he’s a great interviewer.
Hard disagree. He comes across as trying to be buddies with the player instead of hitting them with any substantive potentially uncomfortable questions

Yeah I think sgs and fried egg are the best golf podcasts out right now. NLUs gone downhill the last couple years
KVV is cringe when he’s political but is actually a good journalist and puts out quality work when it isn’t political. I don’t care for Riggs and rapaport work or personality wise
ETA: Andy from the fried egg is more knowledgeable about golf than anyone on foreplay or NLU too

After spending all offseason thinking about how bad our lineup might be and how we'll struggle to score runs if Yordan isn't at an mvp level, I'm ready to ride. Just locked in the astros division winner bet at +250. Loving feeling the optimism I get this time of the year, just hope it lasts past the weekend.

Is this considered a "major" yet?
No.

The PGA championship never seems to have the atmosphere and tension as the other 4.
Agreed, the pga tour should start their own major to replace the PGA championship. The pga of america generally does a poor job of running the pga championship and ryder cup anyway. Just replace it with something better.

Have they restricted it to 46”? I’ve never looked it up bc I’m 5’10”(or was years ago).
The tour does. I think amateur golf allows up to 48”

Who cares what the pros do?
Everyone who watches pro golf.
No one cares about the random weekend warrior 4some. If you want to use juiced balls then feel free or just bifurcate and let ams do whatever they want similar to baseball with mlb using wooden bats and kids using metal
It’s just a problem when every historically great golf course is having to add tee boxes 100 yards back to remain viable because driving distance is out of control and there’s little to no penalty for missing the sweet spot with modern tech.
Look at the scores at pebble this week. It’s a wedge fest on a historical golf course because of where every pro drives it now. Golf would be a lot more interesting to me if pros had to play shots throughout their bag instead of bombing driver and hitting wedge on every hole

Yes, in pro golf absolutely. I don’t really care for amateur golf, but it doesn’t seem like the manufacturers are going to let bifurcation happen.

I'm not sure about best, but Titleists current fight to delay and/or prevent the ball rollback has me really hating Titleist right now.

Response to Seve comment:
I met him once. Caddied 18 holes in his group.
He could not have been nicer and was a class act in every way.
That's a nice anecdote but everything else points to him being a massive arse hole and cheater

Why would he be upset?
Because he's wasting the prime of his career playing on an irrelevant tour that no one watches or cars about and does a poor job of preparing him for major championships

The whole thing looks like a high schooler used AI to make it. Giving the commissioner the most prominent spot is an awful look
