    Right winger who ridiculed Biden’s cancer diagnosis, wants to live, even as he supports the guy who doesn’t give a flip about the health care of little people. Who knew?

    https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/dilbert-trump-kaiser-21134567.php

    Dilbert comic strip creator and Bay Area resident Scott Adams posted a public plea Sunday to President Donald Trump for help getting cancer treatment at Kaiser Permanente. 

    “On it,” Trump wrote in response a few hours later.

    Adams is a vocal Trump supporter whose work has been canceled in several newspapers over racist statements. He claimed on X that his health care provider, Kaiser of Northern California, “dropped the ball in scheduling” treatment for his metastatic prostate cancer, and he wrote that he planned to ask the president to intervene to help “save” his life.

  2. trade him !!!

    36. Christian Walker, 1B, Astros | $40MM through 2027

    Speaking of Walker, it seems there’s a good chance Houston will try to take a mulligan on this contract in the offseason. The Astros reacquired Carlos Correa at the trade deadline and will install him as their everyday third baseman. That pushes Isaac Paredes off his position. Paredes has some experience at second base but is a better fit at first base. Plus, Houston has to decide where Jose Altuve will play. After saying he’d play left field primarily in 2025, Altuve struggled enough on the grass that he split his time pretty evenly between his new position and his traditional spot at second base.

    One could argue that the move here is to trade Paredes, not Walker. He’d fetch a return of some note, whereas the Astros would need to pay down some of Walker’s salary after he turned in a .238/.297/.421 batting line. Walker popped 27 homers, but his overall production was about average on a rate basis, thanks largely to that meager .297 on-base percentage. And, after years of ranking as one of the best defensive first basemen in all of MLB, his defensive grades plummeted in his new surroundings.

    There’s no easy way to alleviate this logjam of pricey players, but eating some of Walker’s contract and finding a new home for him would be the best path toward fielding a complete roster in 2026. Walker may very well bounce back — he hit .264/.318/.489 (123 wRC+) in his final 305 plate appearances — but Paredes is younger, more affordable and offers more reliable offense.

    I don't generally dislike Norah O'Donnell, but for fuck's sake, that "interview" was infuriating.

    No "so why did you pardon someone whom you are not familiar with?"  No pushback on that or a dozen other things.  

     

    she wasnt there to push back or ask follow up questions

    Only because you pulled Bichette for fucking Isaiah Kiner Felafel

    But who could have predicted that getting cute with defensive replacements and being stuck with Straw and IKF taking huge ABs in extras would burn them?  We only had a 3 hour example of it 6 days previously.

     

    bichette was banged up

    IKF was on 3rd, didn't take much of a lead (3rd baseman was off the bag). didn't move up as the pitcher committed to throwing a pitch, and fucking slid feet first vs running through or diving in head first into the home plate. he looked like a surly poster on 3rd. if he takes a bigger lead after the ball was released, he scores and game over 

    epic base running fail

  5. 2025 Gold Glover, he stepped up huge last year, all over the field ...

    Utility: Mauricio Dubón, Astros

    Dubón was the quintessential utility player for Houston in 2025, appearing at seven positions during the season -- left field (48 games), second base (46), shortstop (33), third base (24), center field (17), first base (four) and right field (three). Overall, he finished sixth in MLB with +20 OAA from all positions combined.

    Years ago this particular species was isolated to within the loop, but it has been a long time since I've been down that way after sunset.  I imagine its territory has expanded since then. To be sure, I recommend contacting Mr. @tx 3 putt for current market conditions.

     

    while back i was brewery hopping with a buddy. he tells me the next one is on 'bissonet'. i'm laughing, 'hell yeah we can watch the girls walk around and laugh at guys picking them up' 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
