DJ Herz – 9% Herz’s overall run prevention numbers might not jump off the page too much. He’s sporting a solid 4.41 ERA and a similarly good 4.15 FIP. They’re not league-leading numbers, and coupled with the fact that Herz pitches for a Nationals team that’s 12 games under the .500 mark, might not inspire too much confidence in terms of his upside as a fantasy rotation option.

Deep League Waiver Wire Players To Add – Week 20

Breaking down notable hitting performances from yesterday's games. In the third inning of last night’s game against the Phillies, Pederson got a 95 mph fastball from Zack Wheeler in on the hands and yanked it into the right field seats for his 19th of the year (392 feet, 103.1 EV). Since the All-Star Break, he’s gone yard six times while slashing .350/.490/.875. Yes, that’s an arbitrary sample size that doesn’t hold much meaning. But that’s what we do during the season; forgive me, old habits die hard.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.

Bingo is a 3-year-old Shih Tzu mix with an adorable appearance and a sweet disposition.
