Assuming MLB locks out players next year, what do rosters look like?

40-man players would be locked out, so a little under half of most AAA teams would have to be replaced through the system. Just a cascade effect up and down? Then the lockout ends (presumably) and everything goes back to normal?

Do they do an accelerated "spring training" if they get a deal and play MLB games in 2027?

Any other oddities or things to consider?

Lost KS ID while on vacation

Still in the US. I have a photo of it on my phone. Can I still drive? Purchase alcohol? Will be home on Saturday. What do I do until then?

I have a UN65MU8000. It is 9 years old. How come some apps aren't available to me?

I want the FoxOne app so I can watch the World Cup (not their news). It's also frustrating because from the app on my phone, my Chromecast that's hooked up to the tv doesn't show up, but it does for other apps like ESPN.

Any workarounds, or should I get a Roku stick or something?

Fox app doesn't see my Chromecast

I have the FoxOne app for sports. It can't see any of my Chromecasts. I am on the same network as the devices. I can cast from the ESPN, Google Home, and other apps, but not from the FoxOne app. What gives?

Fox Sports app doesn't have cast icon

I am connected to the same network as my Chromecast, but the casting icon doesn't show up on the Fox Sports app. Are they forcing everyone over to Fox One? I don't want to download another Fox app if I don't have to. I could share my screen, but I don't want to bogart my phone (Samsung S24+) while casting.

Edit: the cast icon is there, but my devices to show up. I have reset them, the network, and anything else that can be restarted.

Projector selection help

Hi there,

I am in the market for a projector. My budget is at or under $1000, but if there's a good sale and good deal on a really good unit, I could maybe stretch that up to $1250.

Its main uses would be for special events like sports viewing (World Cup, Super Bowl) or showing movies in my backyard or in my garage. It would be moved around. Minimal gaming, but I suppose someone would occasionally bring a Wii or Switch over for MarioKart. I may also sometimes hook it up inside the house.

I'd prefer easy connectivity. I'd really love to be able to connect a Chromecast and have that take care of most of my needs, or have it built in with little issue. No iPhones are in our house. WiFi coverage throughout my house and backyard is of no issue.

Audio would 95/100 times be hooked up via RCA cables to an audio receiver, so projector speaker quality is of little importance to me.

I do own a 120" fabric screen. I don't believe throw will be much of issue in the spaces where I would be using it.

I'm noticing the price of the Epson 2350 on Amazon is currently at $1065, down from retail price of $1400.

Thanks for any advice or assistance you offer.
