The Baltimore Orioles at 63 and 67 are the 5th and last place team in the AL East.
And they are 1 game out of the 3rd wild card.

4 SF Giants pitchers didn’t wear Pride Night caps
Ryan Walker: gone.
Landon Roupp: 5.57 ERA in Aug -has lost 6 in row.
J.T. Brubaker: 7.11 ERA in Aug.
Sam Hentges: 1-6. Blew 2-0 lead in 9th & took 3-2 loss.
So much for a place where there isn’t any trouble. Over the rainbow?

Dave Flemming Friday night on SF Giants pre-game in Boston pointing out that Fenway Park opened five days after the Titanic sunk.
A sadly apt metaphor for the 2026 Giants season.

Walmart just announced their slowest sales growth in six years.
Well, it’s a good thing for Trump and GOP that rural working class people don’t shop at Walmart.

So thousands of people in Indiana are still without power after a major storm as are people in Hawaii after damage from Hurricane Lala.
Has Trump said a single sympathetic word to any of them?
I’ll wait.

RIP former Kansas Senator Nancy Kassebaum, 1st woman elected to U.S. Senate without having her husband serve in Congress before her.
Nancy had just turned 94 in July. Making her a year and a few months older than current US Senator Chuck Grassley, who will be 93 in September.

Remember when George W. Bush used to go to his ranch in August?
And media dubbed it the “silly season” because nothing much happened & W. just mostly biked and cleared brush.
I miss slow news months. I miss slow news DAYS?

Just think, a week ago only us political nerds knew who Natalie Harp was…

Wonder how much it will cost taxpayers to dismantle Trump’s ballroom?
At Safeway in California, less than a year ago their Friday specials might include basic ground beef for $2.50 a pound if you bought 6 pounds or more (so I’d buy and freeze some)
Now the “special” price if you buy 6 lbs or more is $5.99 a pound. Otherwise close to $10 a lb.

Fox News “Pentagon taking aim at military newspaper chief over job performance, insubordination.
Translation: “Stars and Stripes” broke story about horrific conditions & mental health issues for military aboard Abraham Lincoln.
They broke the rule – cannot make Trump & Hegseth look bad.

So when the Abraham Lincoln gets back to the USA what measures will Trump and Hegseth use to keep those onboard from speaking to the press?
–
So the Natalie Harp story has gotten so bad that to distract Trump decided to start an economic war with… Canada?
