just eyeballing things, I think he'd be on a top 100 now

pretty sure Naked Glamping and the Gen Z Stare is playing the side stage to the side stage at Lollapalooza

Build the Most Scenic Road in America in the Great Board Game Big Sur The Big Sur Coast Highway is gorgeous--and the Big Sur board game is elegantly designed and deeper than expected.

my latest game review for @endlessmode.bsky.social covers Big Sur, which is a simple game to teach/learn with a sneaky puzzle aspect that grows as you play your card. Kerouac not included, though. bit.ly/4l7kvXY

Dodgers fix outfield hole but give up talent by adding prospects for Dustin May It was an unusually quiet deadline for the Dodgers, though they did make two deals on Thursday, adding and subtracting two prospects.

my last deadline writeup is a short one on the Dodgers’ two moves, adding the now well-travelled James Tibbs III and sending two lottery-ticket arms to Washington for Alex Call, over at @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/45kDuZt

Surprise contenders, the Blue Jays go all-in with deadline deals The Jays got what they needed but also deserve credit for actually being willing to trade some real prospects at the deadline.

thoughts on the Jays’ two trades today, giving up some solid prospects for Bieber and Varland, for subscribers to @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/3H62QSQ

Seen Vrieling a bunch. never would have said I thought he was a stud.

next up, my breakdown of the Camilo Doval deal, which didn't feature any of my top 20 Yankees prospects from prior to the season. for subscribers to @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/4fdiiJc

Padres fix their offense with Ryan O’Hearn, Ramón Laureano at reasonable prospect cost The Padres did a better job of addressing their biggest need in their second big trade of the day, adding two legitimate bats to the lineup.

and my thoughts on the big Padres/Orioles trade, which makes a lot more sense than San Diego's trade with Oaklamento did @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/3ISYDlX

Yankees expend minimal cost to upgrade bullpen with David Bednar, Jake Bird The Yankees added two right-handed reinforcements to the backend of their bullpen without dealing away any of their major prospects.

Padres pay a steep prospect price in landing Mason Miller, JP Sears from A’s It's a really strong return for the Athletics, especially if you believe, as I do, that Miller's value could evaporate at any minute.

Law: Mariners upgrade with Eugenio Suárez, D-Backs get 3 prospects The Suárez deal brought the D-Backs Tyler Locklear, Hunter Cranton and Juan Burgos and could eventually give them runway for Jordan Lawlar.

because sleep is for the weak (or so I tell myself), here are my thoughts on the Mariners’ reacquisition of Eugenio Suárez, for subscribers to @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/475O8ph

Cubs bolster back of rotation with Michael Soroka, give Nats 2 solid prospects The Cubs needed rotation help, and while Soroka isn't a top-end starter, he's an upgrade for the backend of their rotation.

couple more trade analyses from last night for subscribers to @theathletic.com - the Michael Soroka deal: nyti.ms/44Y2ZRr

and the Ke’Bryan Hayes deal: nyti.ms/4lbCLQ9

I'm not hearing anything. I don't do the rumor mill.

I don't think he is, but it's within the realm of possibility.

Mets boost their bullpen, add Ryan Helsley, Tyler Rogers without trading elite prospects The Mets acquired two relievers for the late innings and didn't give up any of their elite prospects in the process.

my thoughts on the Mets' two deals, giving up very little for Ryan Helsley and a bit more for Tyler Rogers, are now up for subscribers to @theathletic.com: nyti.ms/41f0A2g

yeah except that whole post is wrong

Phillies get an answer to closer woes in Jhoan Duran; Twins nab 2 upside prospects Duran helps stop what has been a revolving door at closer for the Phillies, while the Twins get a potential All-Star in Eduardo Tait.

Czech just had to not strike a new deal. It’s very simple.

It makes no sense to frame this as some sort of correction — adequate nutrition is more important for kids with health conditions, not less.

all good, just letting you know

my post was about baseball

Teel has got to catch that throw, even if he can't make the tag he didn't get into the right position to catch it

Money has a 6+ ERA though

Trade analysis: Orioles fare well in adding Juaron Watts-Brown for Seranthony Domínguez The Orioles weren't going to miss Domínguez, who is a free agent after the season, so acquiring a real prospect for him is a win.
