    Microwave pro-tip I learned when I turned pro at the age of 19 in the Microwave League: Press the +30 seconds button 4x instead of mashing 2-0-0-start. This requires far less precision and is much easier on your UCL in the long-run. Happy microwaving!

    • @FoolishBaseball
      @FoolishBaseball  8 місяців тому +34

      Interesting theory. 2-0-0 only requires three button presses though. Probably a negligible difference once you factor in having to move the finger from 2 to 0.

    • @RoyDonk93
      @RoyDonk93 8 місяців тому +39

      Don’t forget about the 4th press for “start”! This is commonly overlooked, even in our statistics-driven era
      (If your microwave requires you to press start to use the +30 sec button, then (1) I’m sorry and (2) while technically more presses it’s still probably a wash to your point about having to move your finger)

      On my microwave, the 1-5 buttons are shortcuts to start cooking at 100% for 1 minute to 5 minutes respectively with just a single button press. (If you need to bypass those shortcuts, you need to press the "Cook Time" button first.)
      Meanwhile, the number 9 button is still very rarely used.

      Other Microwave tips: 1. Above-stove and other 'installed' Microwaves seem to have a capped power limit lower than counter-top or other portable Microwaves, which in my experience can make higher wattage Microwaves much faster and 2. Power percentage only changes the duty cycle (ratio of on/off) and not the power output, making it practically useless for better results and more even cooking. 3. Advertised power includes fan/lights and losses, it's only the input power while the cooking output is 1kW for my Samsung that appears to be the same as in this video. It's better than my old Microwave but (significantly) slower than a Smart countertop model we had in the mid 2000s amongst others.

    As always, a fire Baseball Bits episode.
    I'm of the opinion that it was both a blessing and a curse. That one year of Major League pay might have been the financial stability needed to bridge the gap to the developmental deal with the Giants, which could be Elvis's big chance to show that he is Major League ready just about on schedule for a decent length career. He's only 24 this year, and plenty of pitchers don't make it to the show until they turn 25 or 26. This story isn't over, and I look forward to the follow up in around 5 years when he's won a Cy Young Award.

    Noah Song caught a bit of a raw deal last year. Taken from Boston by Philly after missing multiple years due to mandatory military service. Spent most or all of the year on the IL, for what may have been a phantom injury, only to eventually be returned to the Sox. In the end it just felt like the Phillies wasted a year of potential development for a guy who at 26 years old doesn’t have time to waste. Pretty sad honestly. Makes you think that certain exceptions should be made sometimes

      On the other hand, after missing several years and trying to pitch again, it seems pretty likely that he'd get injured, plus the Phillies didn't even keep him after the season was over.

      Phillies fan here. I was excited for Song and thought it could be a sneaky move. By all accounts, from what I have seen (and i follow the team closely) is that they werent trying to waste anything and actually thought he could help. The injury was not phantom, and when he came back he was only throwing 91-93. They had no choice but to offer him back. I hope he eventually makes it, but those injuries may have done a number on his arm already.

    He only got 80,000 as a signing bonus from the DR, but made over half a million in his one big league year. And I don’t get the sense he was wealthy when he was in the DR. I also don’t get the sense Luciano had much upside potential.

    Based on the title I thought this might be about David Clyde. That loophole needs to be closed, but of course it won't be because it so rarely applies it isn't worth being a bargaining chip.

    part of the reason Allen Cordoba never returned to the majors was a seriour injury after a car accident in Panama. i believe then he returned to the Padres an played AAA for some time. I think he is now playingMexican league. Caribean series and also played World baseball classic with Panama national team. i hope he returns to the majors. @Foolishbaseball

    Hope this doesn’t happen with Deyvison de los Santos. As a DBacks fan I was nervous when they left him off the 40-man and wasn’t too surprised to see someone scoop him up because of his huge power potential. However, he definitely isn’t big league ready imo, and he will probably struggle if the Guardians stash him in the majors. Also stinks that they might be giving him a roster spot that should go to Manzardo, who is a more advanced hitter.
