Jake Burger’s daughter Penelope underwent successful open heart surgery on Monday. On Thursday, the Rangers slugger homered wearing her hospital bracelet on his wrist. That’s a whole new level of Dad strength. From @kennlandry.bsky.social: www.mlb.com/news/jake-bu...

I feel like this every day, so I either need TJS or I'm just old

If you're worried about aviation safety, these NOAA/NWS cuts are just as alarming as anything happening at FAA.

The Muzak at Bojangles this morning gave me the unusual pairing of an Eric Hutchinson (yay!) tune followed by Bronski Beat??!!

Look at the 2 most popular searches for MLB & MILB today.

MLB teams' increasing reliance on their bullpens is a manifestation of optimized pitching strategy. Starters' performance wanes as their pitch counts rise and batters get multiple looks at them. Relievers keep getting nastier every year. It's just smart baseball. But what if it's not?

Ben Brown is finally healthy and fighting for a spot on the Cubs Opening Day roster. With a fastball that can touch the upper 90s, a nasty breaking ball and developing change, he has the type of stuff this rotation currently lacks. t.co/XmT4d6IEUZ

Good day for prospects on the Exit Velocity leaderboard.

Hint -- he was acquired when the Rays sent Jake Bauers away for this hitter & Cole Sulser. Bauers went on to be a -0.8 oWAR player for Cleveland before being dealt to Seattle.

I'll give you the 2 easy ones, but who is currently 3-5 on the Rays' career oWAR rankings?

Some good reliever pieces from 2 smart people today: @mikegianella.bsky.social looks at ADP for relievers www.baseballprospectus.com/fantasy/arti... @dougdennis.bsky.social looks at reliever LIMA targets www.baseballhq.com/articles/ski...

GLARF weekend was incredible. Drafted in Comerica Park, raised $5,000 for charity, and got to spend time with a bunch of my friends.This is what fantasy baseball is all about.

Ridiculous catch by Chandler Simpson (the fastest man in pro baseball) on Marcelo Mayer. If he learns the position, he could be a Gold Glover.

Chandler Simpson wearing #96 in camp. Probably the only player who shows off his 100 meter dash time in his jersey.

HOF John Smoltz allowed 288 homers in his career (Bonds led with 8 off him) but who was the only pitcher to take Smoltz deep in his career? Hint: it happened in 1993
