Nah that stuff is stupid.
Depends on where in Fairfax you are. If you mean literally just barely into Fairfax County (e.g., Seven Corners), a round trip uber X would probably be like $30 or 40, about the same as good parking. Just depends on who you want to deal with the traffic, urself or a driver.
If ur tombout Fairfax City or some shit, you're almost certainly going to save money driving and parking.

Don't like the pick but I expected to go into the draft hating the pick as soon as I saw them seriously considering Lewis. He's an interesting player but nowhere near #1 quality. Not taking McKay, Wright, or Greene is hard to understand.
The FG prospect guy was talking about how they're linked at 35 with another Boras client and figured it may be a "package" type thing.
It's not Sam Carlson. I assume Twins fans want the home state kid

Now it sour time
that must have been a wonderful game to go to as a Braves fan. 5 runs in the 8th and 9th capped off with a tyler flowers 3 run bomb.
5 homers in that game for the braves? damn

Last Tuesday, when I went to the Phillies-Braves game most of the crowd that was around me was either on their phones or just didn't really care what was going on. Was weird.

Giants fans are the most engaged fans I have encountered so far. We had shitty seats and the people around us where still way into the game.

Found this interesting... used to be devout follower of BP/premium subscriber but at most go on the site once a year now: http://deadspin.com/how-baseball-pr...source=deadspin_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow
Braves and Brandon Phillips walk off on back to back days to beat the Marlins. Phillips had the walk off hit in both games
best thing about the game today is that the hit he got was a bouncer up the middle which was a tailor made double play ball to end the inning...the marlins 2b and SS were both going towards it and then both just stopped and stared at each other as it dribbled into CF

Yeah when BP came out/I started reading it in 2003 it was revolutionary and had some great ideas. Everyone has caught up and those sites just aren't interesting to me anymore. They try to come up with new stuff like catch pitch framing, spin rates, etc. but they just aren't as interesting.

Said one NL general manager, “Three teams have become big, big believers in the combination of high fastballs and curveballs: the Astros, Dodgers and Rays. Those teams are heavy into analytics. The game is changing away from the sinker/cutter/slider guys.”
Cubs went after pitchers in this yrs draft with good curveballs. its becoming the "it" pitch

I'm sure they're all going to find guys with Clayton Kershaw stuff easily. Baseball has totally fooled itself into thinking there are market inefficiencies that don't involve spending a shit ton of money and getting lucky.

Curveball allegedly is the best pitch to prevent getting loft on the ball. even though Kris Bryant says his favorite pitch to hit is a curveball, I doubt these teams go that heavy into it without numbers to back it up. teams are looking for groundballs. if they turn into a Kershaw, thats icing on the cake imo
