It's interesting that JFK and LGA had almost the same number of 95+ days in 2010, what was NYC's count Chris?

P Cloudy 65.8

I think it hastened it, but they also wanted out of that contract, too. I get it...I don't think he'll age particularly gracefully over 30.....

LGA hit that mark on 7/3/1966 but Central Park only reached a measly 103 and the trees there are even bigger now.

Nothing is proof of anything in A ball....which harkens back to the fact I would want a higher percentage yield trading a player of Dever's caliber. Not to mention they have sold us on "waiting until the youth is ready" to compete for several years, now once it arrives, they cut the teams legs out from underneath it.

Looks increasingly likely that it turns hotter by Sunday. The NWS forecast has low 90s. I took a look at the most recent GFS run and, taken literally, it would suggest 90s Sunday-Friday. Obviously, not ready to commit to that forecast, but either way it should be a hot week. Hopefully, it will be drier as well, with all of the recent rainfall and flooding issues. A very soggy weekend for the US Open Championship at Oakmont.

I disagree. Confident it has nothing to do with it, but we can agree to disagree. The Giants didn't opt to eat 250 million on a whim overnight, so the outcome of the series wasn't a factor- It wasn't a baseball decision.....the Sox decision to move him had nothing to do with wins and losses.

Looks like hotter and drier weather is coming soon.

You can see how the ASOS right on the bay at LGA held the 95° day count down there in 2010 with all the westerly flow compared to Mineola which was more inland away from the water.

high of 86F, low of 74F Aug 1944 had an average high of 88.0F, Aug 1988 had an average high of 87.0F

I expect surf zone temps to be above normal by this time. Good surfing day might be this Friday with left over swell, incoming afternoon high tide and offshore winds, yippee !

But we have a sports forum

Maybe. But .255 babip, .857 ops, in 250ish ABs isn’t enough proof for me that he will be a failure…even if it’s A ball.

In the end, they do not move him if he was a good teammate.

heh... it's a billion dollar operation that is a baseball organization - it has something to do with baseball. I get it that it's not based on what I just said, but I also didn't say that - I said it helped. I bet if Devers didn't spend the first month of the season suckin donkey D on offense with historically bad numbers ... but say, he hit .380 in the span instead, it would have factored some.

3.01" for the weekend and 4.87" on the month. In the past 45 days, over 15" has fallen.

This move had absoluely zero point zero to do with baseball...non-factor. It was about finances and (frayed) relationships.

I don't think so. You don't move that much money overnight....this was in the works for a bit-

i also wonder if the fact that they swept the Yanks, and took 2/3 in the last two previous series, while Devers was slumping and not really helping them on offense, just might of maybe helped the final inking be a little more legible ...

Absolutely...he's a shit-bag. I wanted him gone, but not for a bag of balls. What frustrated me is they valued saving more money over getting any talent back in return. The issue isn't Devers, but rather the continued deemphasis of the collection of premium talent.

Yes and here too, we had 11 of those days. The station maximum was set in 2011 though when they reached 108, the same as Newark on the same day?

Still skeptical of that we end up with a big dog heat event, but the signal is definitely there for legit heat at least. I always sit up a little when Tip starts to talk Sonoran heat release. I’m guessing we fail Thursday

2010 had the most 95° days at Mineola right before the station shut down.

probably silently speaks volumes about how much they appreciated his antics back in spring training when he attempted to dictate to the organization where/what/how he plays. Just a guess. I mean yeah ... they'll positive spin the move per protocol and PR as something else, but it's really a go fuck yourself thing

If you are looking for hot beach and pool weather looks like the last 10 days of June will grant your wish. OZ EPS.
