Pedro said there was no way Devers was a bad teammate, whereas Big Papi says the opposite. Fitzy changes the subject to large MLB contracts and says they are ruining the league. Lock out coming soon. Pedro thinks the Sox did not handle the situation well. Front office people should not be involved in this, and neither should the media. Ortiz was not as nice.
The Red Sox are in a tough spot. Cora specifically, is also in a bad spot. He used to be the front man, meant to take the blame, but he has been managing pretty well as of late. There have been a lot of changes, and he has held the clubhouse together. Pedro vs Big Papi fight over Devers Pedro said there was no way Devers was a bad teammate, whereas Big Papi says the opposite. Fitzy changes the subject to large MLB contracts and says they are ruining the league. Lock out coming soon. Pedro thinks the Sox did not handle the situation well. Front office people should not be involved in this, and neither should the media. Ortiz was not as nice. Breslow has no PR skills. Fitzy addresses his face scrapes.

How can it continue to improve? Stiz: The facts of the Karen Read case do NOT add up. She has said different things on different days. He thinks she did it. Why is she allowed to talk on the news?

In Episode 53 of Redefining Energy TECH, Host Michael Barnard speaks with Tristan Smith, a prominent expert in maritime decarbonization and professor at the University College London Energy Institute. Tristan shares his insights, beginning with an overview of maritime shipping, which accounts for approximately 1 gigaton of CO₂ equivalent annually, making it responsible for about 2-3% of global emissions. Crucially, the regulatory oversight for these emissions sits largely with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) due to the nature of international shipping occurring beyond national jurisdictions.Our conversation moves through the historical context of the IMO, tracing its evolution from a safety standards body established post-Titanic disaster to an organization now deeply involved in global climate policy. Historically, the IMO faced significant challenges in progressing climate regulations due to entrenched disagreements between developed and developing countries around responsibilities. The Paris Agreement in 2015, alongside persistent advocacy from smaller nations like the Marshall Islands, notably shifted this dynamic, leading to the adoption of the IMO's initial climate strategy in 2018.We delve into recent regulatory developments, including the unprecedented IMO vote initiated by Saudi Arabia, resulting in a decisive 63-to-16 vote (with around 29 abstentions) mandating progressive reductions in greenhouse gas intensity for ships over the next 25 years. The regulation sets clear fines for non-compliance—$380 per ton for exceeding the highest threshold and $100 per ton for mid-level breaches—ultimately requiring ships to achieve a 65% reduction in emissions intensity by 2040.The discussion highlights the role of Emissions Control Areas (ECAs), established initially to curb SOx and NOx emissions in sensitive regions like the Baltic Sea, North Sea, and North America, effectively serving as early tests for broader international regulations. Additionally, we critically examine LNG's journey from a touted solution for reducing SOx and NOx emissions to its complicated position as a potential climate liability due to significant methane emissions both onboard and upstream. Norway's influential promotion of LNG and subsequent studies, such as those by the International Council on Clean Transportation, underline these complexities. Finally, Tristan emphasizes the future challenges facing maritime decarbonization, notably the risk of technological lock-in with LNG and the powerful role of the oil and gas industry within the maritime sector. We also explore the shifting political landscape as global fossil fuel transportation—currently 40% of maritime tonnage along with another declining 15% for raw iron ore—faces inevitable structural declines, promising profound implications for industry dynamics and global decarbonization efforts.
On the latest White Sox Podcast, Chuck Garfien is joined by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Derrick Goold to revisit the 3-team trade that landed Miguel Vargas on the White Sox. Now Vargas is leading the Sox in nearly every offensive category and could be an All-Star, while the Cardinals may be preparing to flip Erick Fedde at the deadline. They break down how the trade looks now versus then, what could still be ahead for all three teams involved, and if a Luis Robert Jr. deal with St. Louis makes any sense.

What went on in the Kennedy-Breslow press conference on Zoom? It was the wild wild west out there. Boston's hottest club is the Sam Kennedy press conference on Zoom. It has angry old beat writers, IP addresses, unmuted conversation and images of JetBlue Park. Don't forget the useless questions! Are Breslow and Kennedy on the same page? No one knows. Is Kennedy the Guy Fieri of baseball? A lot of new fresh flavors! It is important that the Giants were able to eat the entire contract. Was that the main reason for the trade? Why did Breslow say that the contract was not a factor... lies. Why did the Red Sox return suck? It would have been better if the Sox ate some of the contract. Breslow got called a stiff. Inside the Joon Lee article which was mostly pro Devers. Was this a Red Sox hit piece? Jones bets all the stories about Devers are true.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): What was supposed to be a celebratory weekend turned dreary as Gordo, Sammy, and Pat react to the STUNNING trade of Rafael Devers to the Giants.

Also, the return on the deal does bring a sense of optimism either to fans and causes some flashbacks to the package for Mookie Betts. And, Rob Bradford joins to give his thoughts on the wild day and has all eyes now on the Sox players in that clubhouse as they embark on their west coast road trip.
