Obviously wish his performance was better of late and that he wasn't injured last year. When he did pitch in 24 he was lights out. You still can't replace him on the open market for $15M per year. As it is, a guy with 6.6 WAR between 2 years of work, he probably gets $20-25M AAV.
He's had a bad stretch for sure. If you take the first half into account he has had a decent year.
For $15M per year, still a bargain.
First time watching for me
Just started S2! Overall the show is a lot more cheesy than I expected.
The only thing more infuriating than the ads is that the ads seem to work.
This is the kinda stuff right wing media said when Michelle Obama oversaw a school nutrition program fyi. Glenn Beck transcript is from 2010.
Obviously the players wouldn't care
I'm just a little embarrassed to even be a WC team. Even if they turn things around by the playoffs, the narrative will be "clearly the new playoff system is broken if these Mets win big look how shitty they played during the regular season, definitely not the best team"
Appreciate the sentiment but he has actively said he is not going to be a leader in the party anymore. He's not going to say anything divisive. He's someone who will really only try to unite people.
Ah shit this is disheartening. I really liked polis before I read this.
This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.
When you and your wife are the token liberals in your conservative extended family.
Blue state governors should start sending their own national guard troops to: Billings, MT Knoxville, TN Charleston, WV Huntsville, AL All are cities in red states with majority non-minority populations and high crime rates. They clearly need help dealing with their broken cities.
Agreed. The reason is made up. Even if it wasn't made up, that is not the role of the US military and there is a very good reason for that.
“BECAUSE WE CAN” 🤔 They’re not even hiding it. Fascism is here. 🇺🇸
How do I download this video to share on other platforms?
“Are you abandoning your jobs?” 🔥 🔥 TEXAS DEM REP. ANN JOHNSON: “Yeah no — abandoning your job is going to Cancun in the middle of a deadly freeze…” A+ answer from Rep. Johnson here. @texasdemocrats.bsky.social
💯 Kira and Bashir?? What were they smoking? Quark, Worf, and Garak I could buy as part of a joke. If they were really serious about being funny, Dukat would be the only Trump voter and yet Trump would still win and it would be Terok Nor precinct now.
Oh shit was medicare cut? I knew Medicaid was.
I'd gladly sacrifice a Mets ws for this
Agreed but I'd prefer humane deportations over this shit if that was the choice
If Faux News, RT, and Newsmax also lose their licenses, I could live with it.
DHS has arrested two medical personnel at a surgical center in California for demanding that the officers trespassing in their building identify themselves & provide a warrant, accusing them of another.... wait for it... ASSAULT. The case shows how DHS lies relentlessly to violate the Constitution
Joey did a 180 so hard the Lolita Express had to re-calculate its flight path.
Debunking Memes: Paul’s True Gospel Message I have seen this meme making the rounds on social media lately. The purpose is to justify disrespectful behavior toward non-Christians. The underlying message is we can treat practitioners of other religions however we want because the do not hold to the…
BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files. As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed. Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.
Head of FEMA Urban Search and Rescue branch resigns. He told colleagues that TX delay was tipping point after months of admin efforts to dismantle the agency. DHS Sec Noem took 72 hours after TX flooding to authorize the deployment of FEMA’s search and rescue network www.cnn.com/2025/07/21/p...
The Democratic Party as it exists doesn't inspire confidence they're wrong about either of those.
So… dementia or classic Trump lying?
But I thought undocumented migrants didn't pay taxes
Can someone explain this like I'm 5? I listened to him today on pod save America and he seems pretty reasonable, and like one of the only leaders actually standing up to DJT.
Donald Trump says he was "surprised" that Jerome Powell was appointed Chair of the Federal Reserve. Donald Trump appointed Powell.
Trump on Jerome Powell: “He’s a terrible Fed chair. I was surprised he was appointed.” Trump appointed Jerome Powell during his first term in office.
Young people: The “turning point” is whenever Charlie Kirk tries to recruit you. Turn away from Turning point USA!
Depraved behavior. Just when you think they're at the lowest they can go...
democracy! 🤷🏼♂️ 🇺🇸
She just voted against debate on releasing the Epstein Files fyi
SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
The man who says he and his son monitor each other's porn intake talking about the man who illegally covered up his hush money payments to a porn star he cheated on his wife with in order to become president
I do seem to remember that, yeah.
🤣🤣
yeah I think the immigration stuff is far more important, but it is also important to hold pedophiles accountable. Also, the Epstein stuff seems to be lifting the veil from his base. if they no longer believe everything he says, they may also start recognizing that immigrants are people too
sound up
😬
🔥🔥🔥
The list excludes SFO and therefore their opinions aren't valid.
The recent immigration-related arrest shows that ICE is more concerned with targeting all immigrants than with ensuring public safety.
It's not a war, it's a concept of a war
Every day I'm more pissed off they didn't bring him back.
We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.
Facts matter.
Yes but please don't call it kiddie porn. Child sexual abuse material is more apt.
AOC: “They’re making people undocumented by removing LEGAL status, then having the audacity to call them illegal… correct?” @govpritzker.illinois.gov: “Taking their legal right to be here away.” @aoc.bsky.social: “The Republican majority is anti-LEGAL immigration, I want to make that very clear.”
I was thinking they might sweep but yikes this game is going sideways.
4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:
HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect
What is SRS
Wrong season but yeah it's I think my fav Christmas movie
Justice Jackson nails where we are right now: “Your argument turns our justice system into a catch me if you can kind of regime from the standpoint of the Executive where everybody has to have a lawyer and file a lawsuit in order for the government to stop violating people’s rights.” 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Friday night Tequila tweet: She was in this country LEGALLY. She wrote an op-ed. And bcuz she wrote an op-ed, our government disappeared her, detained her for 6wks, & tried to deport her. Fuck that. That’s not America. Today she was freed. And free speech held. THAT’S America.
How about some basic rules? --All law enforcement officers should wear identification --No law enforcement officers should be allowed masks --All law enforcement officers should wear and use body cams ...oh and... --All law enforcement officers should understand, respect & follow the law
What exactly does the US get in return for lifting tariffs?
Millennials are still the coolest tho
It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.
This was an amazing movie
I like Jared Polis for POTUS but I've never heard his name mentioned.
Lord, I see what you’ve done for others…
Where Senga
Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
WHO ELSE AGREES WITH BARBRA?! 🤚
“Ignore the Supreme Court.” This is MAGA. MAGA IS the Republican Party. The Republican Party IS a threat to democracy and the rule of law.👇
He was compassionate and humble. He cared deeply about immigrants, families suffering in war zones, the poor, those of other faiths and the LGBTQ+ community. He did not condemn or judge but urged us to love and care for each other. He was the best Pope of my life time. Thank you Pope Francis .

Van Hollen: "I'm very glad that the killed of Rachel Morin has been convicted in a court of law. That is how we hold guilty people accountable ... I'm not sure why Abrego Garcia's rights should be denied based on an awful murder he had absolutely nothing to do with."
Van Hollen: This case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the Constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.
JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations
This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason
JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)
Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal
At what stage will the people carrying out these orders refuse to do so?
The person who actually ordered the invasion isn't to blame, apparently.
Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen
ICE is handcuffing and taking THIRD GRADERS out of school, trying to play it off as "questioning" or other nonsense. ICE agents ARE the brown shirts. There is no humanity in them. Their only goal is to wipe non-white people from the U.S. Even small children. Nazism is alive & well, thanks to MAGA.
To pray, “Thy Kingdom come…” is a prayer for every earthly kingdom to fall.
Are you paying ATTENTION, yet? 👇 Well, are you?! Better start. ✨

How the whole civil liberties & rule of law thing ends: It’s ok to deny that legal resident due process & free speech bcuz he’s a pro-Hamas, antisemitic jerk. It’s ok for the President to defy that court order bcuz those were a bunch of Venezuelan gang members on those planes.
👇🏽
The only legitimate use of violence is in self-defense. Has Canada, Greenland, or Panama attacked us? No, they have not. That means WE would be the bad guys if we attacked them first. I can’t believe I need to explain this to adults.
