Clemens should win it just from the way that he's pitched but with the run support he's had that hasn't translated to wins sadly and that may keep him from the Cy Young...

Jon Garland in the AL but that's only because Roy Halladay is hurt since he was pitching the best at the point he got hurt.

If Mark Buehrle can come close to Garland's wins he might win it because of the number of quality starts and consecutive streak of pitching at least 6 innings in a start.

Tough call either way

Willis has started the second half notoriously bad. Looks like he may follow tradition and have that post All-Star break dip. In the NL right now I think a darkhorse is Chris Carpenter of the Cards. I'm personally pulling for Pedro considering he revitalized the Mets. And he DOES have the numbers. Leads the league in Ks, tied for 4th in Ws, 7th in ERA. Attendance is up 26% on the year overall. And he nearly sells out every game. It's been a while since wathcing the Mets was FUN. And as for Clemens, it seems like ya need the wins. Look at Johnson last year with Arizona. He dominated but couldn't get run support and was just 2 over .500.

The AL I don't follow enough but based on numbers I'd take a pick from Garland, Buehrle, and Halladay. There's reports Halladay might be back as soon as Tuesday. Of course, if the injury lasts as long as 4-6 weeks then yeah I'd pull him out of it.

I'm just stunned at that ERA. 1.46. That's nearly a full point better than anybody else. Wow.

I guess I'm impressed. Dude is 42 years old. Still has a great work ethic and keeps himself in shape. I'm thinking he deserves some serious consideration.

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
