In conjunction with Dr. Meredith Wills, Insider found evidence MLB used three distinct baseballs in 2022. The balls show up in distinct places in our sample. Oh! A player got a stern warning from the league for trying to help. Balls don't lie, Part 2:

When May, who ended his career with that dismal, wholly exploitative Oakland A’s team, spoke to me, he asked a very important question that clarified a lot of my thoughts. “Is gambling easy to accept because we’ve normalized the other thing?” I think it is.

Online sports betting might be killing your marriage, GPA and 401k. But is gambling killing sports, in any sense? I wrote about the wave of scandals, with lessons from the 1919 Black Sox, the end-times Oakland A’s (with @IamTrevorMay’s help), and refreshing my Tankathon tab.

not a single college-educated person sounds natural using the word “retarded”. I grew up around people who did, none of them currently know who Hegel or Piketty or Mishima is. you all sound like children trying out a bad word for the first time, every single time.

Affordable housing on Governor's Island (an island w/ no businesses or transit or road access) has to be a joke. The UWS and three other Council districts didn't add a single unit of affordable housing last year. Start there.
Interesting @errollouis interview with Julie Menin. She backs universal child care and free buses and wants to build affordable housing in places like Governor's Island; she opposed ballot measures with the Council but says they'll make it easier to build:

Per Mike Puma, Francisco Lindor and Jeff McNeil got into a "heated confrontation" after the June 20th game in Philly, and Lindor and Soto had a chilly relationship. https://t.co/qB7WYJY2e1

YES did indeed share that Paul O'Neill is, thankfully, cancer-free & that those Facebook posts are BS. I know this issue has wider-reaching implications, but I've seen a surge in fabricated #Yankees stories from fan & AI accounts on FB/IG. Not sure if the goal is to farm
Paul O'Neill doesn't have cancer. The YES Network put out a statement refuting widely circulated Facebook posts pushing the rumor. There was even a fake news story with fake quotes from the Yankees legend and others. READ:

Yoshi's Wario. I'm here for it.
Tatsuya Imai when asked about playing for the Dodgers: “I want to beat them… beating a team like that and becoming world champions would be the most valuable thing in my life.” Imai also prefers not to sign with a team that already has Japanese players (via @NekoSuke5_5_2)

As a creative, passionate individual, I love continuously searching for my ikigai, the Japanese concept of the meaning/purpose of life. It's basically the intersection of my passions, my skills, my financial goals and my vision of making the world a better place. (2/6)
