The cost of buying a new smart phone nowadays can be daunting, with prices ranging from $500 to a mortgage payment.
That is why buying a refurbished phone is a viable option. Could you wind up getting a slightly banged-up older model where the original accessories may be missing or obsolete? Of course. If you don’t go to a reputable source, could you wind up with pictures of the previous owners’ feet? Who knows? Either way, you’ll have a phone that works — at least at the beginning — for a discounted price.
It’s like being one of the fantasy managers who took a chance on Tyler Mahle after he was an afterthought in drafts.
Mahle, who missed most of the past two seasons after undergoing Tommy John surgery, is 3-1 with a 1.19 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in his first seven starts. He has not allowed more than two earned runs in any of his starts and has four quality starts in his past five outings. The 30-year-old has had three outings in which he blanked the opposition, including a seven-inning appearance on April 20 in which he limited the Dodgers to two hits.
