Read that Seattle may trade Moyer next. Garcia I can understand because he did not want to stay in Seattle and he had those problems with drinking and clubbing last couple of years instead of working hard to get better. But Moyer? He is about as good a citizen as you can hope for, and he has been one of the best pitchers in the majors since going to the Mariners. Seattle is totally screwed. From 116 games a couple years ago to last place in the West. Guess they should not have gotten Lou Pinella so mad that he quit. Oh well. I can turn off the TV and play Fantasy baseball instead. :)

Sad to see Miguel Olivio traded by white sox though, I still think he has the best arm in the MLB

Is he a good catcher? I hope so. I thought a few teams would go after Pudge Rodriguez in the off season, including that Seattle team. I wonder what happened with that Ben Davis guy? He was a Padre and was supposed to be a good prospect. But I think they sent him down to the Minor leagues or something. Seattle is really screwed up. They get rid of Mike Cameron, make Lou Pinella leave, force their GM Pat Gillick out, and all this after years of great play. I don't understand it.

Olivio is an awesome fielding cather, with decent hitting skills.

If he gets consistent playing time he will keep getting better and better.

In Chicago he didnt play much because of Sandy Alomar Jr.

Like I said he has an absolute Cannon

Cool. Thanks for the reply. Seattle has split catcher duties between 2 catchers for years, so Olivio should get some more playing time, I think. I hope it works out for him in Seattle.

Dont think they will pick up two quality pitchers. I hate Jay Mariotti with a passion, biased jag.

:laugh:

Don't you just love that Sox favoritism? It was said in the article that it was either gonna be Garcia or Ortiz for the trade, but after Garcia got traded to the Sox, Williams said he still wanted Ortiz around. Maybe he would move Schoenweis back to relief to open up another spot for Ortiz.

Showenwies would be a great addition to the gap in the White Sox bullpen.....Jackson just cant pitch.

Politte, Cotts, and Takatsu are all looking preety dang solid right now.

    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.

      The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
