All of San Francisco's AI billboards are like Philly's injury lawyer billboards, but way less fun

I just reposted this but please humor me as I wait in an airport: BP puts in such thorough effort to keep you aware of important, silly, bizarre, and endearing daily moments of baseball that are otherwise so easily passed by
today's BSB I make a reference to The Scouring of The Shire AND a Hope, Jobs, and Cash joke. So if that doesn't sell it for you what will
10 pages into a tech book from 1992 and I've cursed to myself in chorus half a dozen times

Washington cashes out on one of its breakout bats.

the Phillies keep finding new ways for me to feel nothing this year
Glen Hansard gonna go down as an all-time Wish Someone Pushed This In My Face Sooner for me, personally
if the Reds are listening at all on Hunter Greene and/or Elly De La Cruz, can we listen to the distant song of relegation, echoing from a conch shell off the shores of Europe?
honestly I couldn't given a shit what anonymous execs say, how bout you offer some perspective on those words instead of just blasting them out
Dodgers going out of their way to uphold my theory that greatness is boring as hell
our most recent Heat Check column namechecked Zyhir Hope and had a blurb on Brady Smith, for thirsty Tigers fans:

Begging the Phillies to not feed the Dodgers 40-man/dev machine to plug the Mostly Competent Depth Outfielder spot they haven't been able to solve. Please
Track order with Shop, because a third party app is just how that works now
lmao, building the foundation for "we just couldn't find a match on prospects"
Puka Nacua makes a lot more sense when you remember he doesn't believe concussions are real
If I have to hear about how great and brilliant the Brewers and Rays are all the time, I should also be able to expect them to maneuver past any shortcoming of a Skubal rental.
This would have never happened if the Phillies were brave enough to re-sign Harrison Bader
I was going to post about something utterly horrific and dystopian and realized I don't have the capacity for that right now, so here's something much cooler instead: a mini print from a vending machine we stumbled upon in Maine
Don Mattingly is certainly managing like a guy who knows he won't be here long and I think that stinks
No trades, so a bit of a weird one from me today. I wrote about the experience of watching Tyler Freeman play outfield in 2026, after watching him play outfield in 2025, and how it can make one feel a little unstuck in time

Part of the routine is acknowledging the routine. Your kid pokes their head in the doorway after you’ve put them to bed, their expression a sort of unconscious weary defiance, like a stepped-on ant th...

for the first time since I can remember (again, as a casual nba guy), the sixers have...depth? like, the possibility of a real rotation? and people are arguing over whether that's good?
I can't believe LeBron is giving us all 80k for each year he's here. Truly the GOAT
Now that LeBron James has officially signed with the 76ers, experts expect he’ll have a sizable economic impact on the Philadelphia region. And that’s on the heels of a banner summer for Philly. Read more: www.audacy.com/kywnewsradio...
Cal Quantrill is throwing harder than he has in years. Guys like Cal Quantrill are less relevant than ever. On him and how starters are throwing harder than relievers now: www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...

The veteran is adapting, or perhaps the league is adapting itself around him.

Kyle Leahy just struck out 9 over 6 innings, giving up just 2 earned runs. He's been on a hell of a run. Read about how: www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...

The Cardinals finished the 2025 season at 78-84. A record in that range says enough on its own, but it was notable for the club. They’d finished under .500 in two of the previous three years and faile...

As someone who follows the NBA mostly through the lens of hilarious eye-rolling drama, I just think it's neat how the Celtics totally reshaped the East this off-season
I deleted this because of a bad swipe-type typo only to be foiled once more. Dumbphone
Rob Manfred did the whole "baseball is a social service" thing and is letting the league run explicit, pro-cap adai that are mostly just making fans angry at each other and hey wait that seems like the opposite of a social service
