Phoenix is getting at least one suburb that sounds really cool, actually. Why? Because it's actually built to be a suburb where people can live in a loving desert, rather than drive cars around in a loving desert.

That looks like it’s just a development in Tempe though? Still pretty cool though.

I think the Phoenix area’s chances of being less car-dependent died in 1989 when voters “surprisingly” shut down the ValTrans proposal.

something i've found helpful when analyzing cool and good players like our friend cody bellinger is that super advanced analytics are for dweebs who don't like to lift weights, wear sick oakleys and hit homers. based on this analysis, he should be signed to a 10 year deal

I hope the Cubs keep him but I doubt it.

Max Muncy has never bunted in the 8th inning of a world series elimination game.

I didn't realize that Eduardo Rodriguez has an opt out. He makes a lot of sense for the Yankees as mid tier guy so they can add and really focus on the offense.

If we get a repeat of last year he's getting 5/125 or something like that and I don't think the Yankees would do that

Why wouldn't they do it? That is what a no 2/3 starter costs and they have Severino coming off the books. Seems pretty directionally reasonable.

I think he's worth that, but not sure they would wanna lock up another oft-injured starter longterm when they have Rodon already.

I couldn't go to the parade, woke up feelin like absolute poo poo. Honestly wonder if being wound up as tight as I was for over a week came back to bite me when I finally relaxed.



Wrapped up in a blanket and watching it on TV, and it's good to know seeing all those moments throughout the playoffs can still send shivers down my spine. ANd hey, I get to dodge a covid infection and that's worth something.



Disappointing but I'm trying to find a silver lining. For what it's worth I missed the Mavs parade in 2011, too.
