Don’t know how Cito Gaston has been bounced from this ballot for Joe Maddon. Cito and his Blue Jays won back to back WS titles in 1992-93. First African-American skipper to win WS. His players still swear by his leadership qualities. Needs to be in. Felipe Alou also.
The Contemporary Baseball Era ballot features four managers and four executives for consideration in the Hall of Fame Class of 2027.
Results will be announced at 8 p.m. ET on Dec. 6: ow.ly/UjVe5102Z6Q
ALT The Contemporary Baseball Era ballot considering managers, executives and umpires includes Sandy Alderson, Dusty Baker, Bruce Bochy, Joe Maddon, Lou Piniella, Brian Sabean, Ted Turner and Bill White.

You and a friend decide to split a pizza. There are eight slices. You each get four.
That's not MLB's "50/50" revenue split. MLB's proposing they just get to call some of the slices "non-pizza" and only *then* split the pizza. So they get 5 or 6 slices and you get 2 or 3.

I asked Jose why he was laughing here, and he said he knew the pitch coming was a changeup and Adell could rollover, and hit a ground ball to the left side of the infield, so he took off to 3rd hoping he would pull Junior and Walls to the bases and open a hole in the infield 🥴

As he came off the field, Scherzer looked at John Schneider and said:
“I feel (expletive) great.. feel (expletive) great.”
The dugout erupted in cheers!

My hot take is that if your company builds software that it cannot stop from hacking into other systems, your company is a malware company and should be treated as such

George Springer fought back tears during a pre-game chat with media, saying today will be “happy sad.”
“I love this place. I love it here. And I'm so thankful for this opportunity.”
Said when he returned to Toronto after the World Series, people kept thanking him. “It was like, I should be saying thank you to them.”

@openai Beware of the Ides of Codex... I was chilling on my terrace, another nice Saturday morning with a view of the Alps and the weekend FT on my lap. Codex was meant to classify some historical newspaper articles. Routine. We had tested it during the week - 5.4 nano vs mini. Nano was good enough. This am, i press the button and say - go and classify some 16k articles. Half an hour later, I check my email...
I had forgotten what a great album Metric's "Fantasies" is. Just one banger after another as the kids say.
