    ^This is the real problem with too many off days between games. Anyway, the eye test and I think the stats show that Harper hits much better in RBI opportunities than with nobody on base. And I know we have seen our share of players who love to mash homers in garbage time.

    Yeah, it's his UCL which I think is TJ surgery. Whatever it is, I'm sure it'll be surgery ASAP once this is all done. Then figure 6 months from then. Last I heard Vegas, or one of the sportsbooks, had Philly as heavy favorites to land Turner so it ain't a pipe dream. And I don't want to get ahead of ourselves and start kicking people out the door, but if they do that then Segura is most likely gone, and dare I say it I'd trade Hoskins at his max value.
    Turner is supposedly a close friend of Harper's and wants back to the east coast.

    Biggest win disparity since 1906. Any baseball history buff knows about the old Hitless Wonders! Pretty sure that's not ever gonna be our team's nickname. (now watch Verlander no hit us tomorrow...)

    Caught about 10 minutes of that in the car earlier. There was also a solid article about him in the Inquirer yesterday.

    HAHA. Haven’t seen it yet was catching up on the last couple. Some baseball team playing was distracting me.

    Rollins and Howard are also on CC’s podcast today. Haven’t listened but assume it will be solid.

    Have played a few rounds of golf with Dave Davies. One of the weirdest golf swings you will ever see, but it also kinda works

    I go in 1 or 2 days a week but I don't see that changing anytime soon (technically I was hired as a remote position). But, no, no mandate for RTO 5 days/week.

    I personally think remote is here to stay for the long haul - and will be offered way more than it used to - but that the leverage it currently has is going to drastically reduce over time here. Imo this is why cities will prevail beyond the current state of things.

    same here. we live in KC, so all anyone can talk about is the Chiefs. I walked in wearing an Astros shirt (casual Friday) and they all looked at me like I was insane for not wearing a Chiefs shirt (red Fridays are a thing here in KC) - even though they know I'm a baseball nut from Houston and I truly don't give two shits about the Chiefs. LOL
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    We offer hybrid with 2 days home, 3 days in office.  Very flexible on additional days needed or appointments/kid stuff need am or pm at home in addition.  Up to the department heads.
    For my team I don't much care if they ever go in the office.  I'm the sales leader, so my team's time should be spent with clients as much as possible and they are measured on outcomes.  Don't meet the outcomes, you get a plan.  Still don't meet the outcomes you get to find a new position elsewhere.  I personally like to be in office when not with clients (Although I'm home today) but I don't care what they do, so long as the outcomes are met.  They can take extra vacation, work in the nude, work from Mexico....just make the numbers. 

    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    We are remote first moving forward. People are asking for it and we literally can’t hire the number of people we need if just focusing on office geography. I go in 4-5 times a month at this point and we do require people to go into the office for business purposes. Our biggest competitor is starting to require some in office, which is great for us
