If you remember offseasons of John Rauch and Frank Francisco, Mets fans, this moment is for you. sheabridge.substack.com/p/mets-fans-...

An MLB team should hire Elizabeth Prelogar as manager — she could persuade an umpire to change any call she wanted!

I'm good with all the new rules so far but this is completely whackadoodle. Imagine if in soccer you could choose a random moment to take a penalty kick. Or if in football you could choose one drive a game to start on the one-yard line. Too much.

#bob says Jake McCarthy is available, and I would love the Mets to make a run at him.

With the ballot unveiled, it's officially, "Let's Get Bobby Abreu into the Hall of Fame" season for me! Let's start with old-school numbers: Players with at least 1000 runs scored, 1000 RBI, 1000 BB, 250 HRs, 400 SBs, 500 doubles and a batting average of no less than .290: Barry Bonds. Bob Abreu.

The way people just make ridiculous criticisms of the media is really weird and not helpful

Why would Robert Saleh do this?

This is a good first Jets game on BlueSky — everyone should learn the lesson that the Jets aren't playing football, they're doing long-form experimental surrealist comedy

Aaron Rodgers seems determined to force us to replace “Willie Mays falling down in the outfield” as the go-to for describing athletes who stayed too long at the ball.

quit complaining about stores playing christmas music in november and start writing some thanksgiving songs. we wouldn’t be in this situation if thanksgiving had bangers

Jake Paul should fight Jesse Winker next

Late night reading

Just waiting for baseball news
