How are they doing it exactly?
Putting substances on their clothing, on their hat, on their belt, on their glove, Im not sure its just pine tar anymore, and then they put it on their fingers and they rub it into the ball between pitches, better grip, more spin, means that the ball reacts with the air differently, causing all sorts of things to happen.

Yeah I remember pitchers back in the day using pine-tar and how ridiculous their hats looked.

LaVine should 100% be an all-star this season, incredible scoring efficiency/playmaking and his defense is much improved.

He's come a long way, very few players work harder.

Was nice to see Wendell Carter back in the lineup. Huge improvement over the other crap Bulls were throwing out there (i.e. Felicio, Gafford, Kornet).

Fernando Tatis Jr. 14 years, 340 million.



Good for the kid. Get that money young man. This game isn't promised and he's had a couple of injuries as it is. Get that security for life.

Tatis deal is great for Tatis and the Padres. They’ve locked down a franchise cornerstone. Tatis got generational wealth.

What’s the hockey equivalent? Kane at 22 signing a fourteen year deal at 8.5 million per? Expensive? Sure. Worth it? Absolutely.

Would have been interesting to see if the cws could have pulled the trigger on a such a deal with Tatis.
