WE GET BREAKFAST BASEBALL TOMORROW MORNING!

The original version by Jawbreaker is one of my favorite songs ever, but holy shit this version is amazing. It really needs to be released on somewhere other than YouTube... youtu.be/9uxT0z-TDEk?...

Super Bowl? Meh. Just one more day closer to baseball season.

Preliminary Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) roster for the WBC Qualifiers this month. I really like how the pitching staff looks. [English translation via @daniel_shih88 on Twitter]

Never Forget.

Slight typo for my directory listing...(I work in the Student Activities Council)

Beastie Boys/L7 - Summer 1993. Sleep Token - Spring 2024

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

Cat tax paid.

Really enjoyed the chat with three of the most prominent Brewers of the last two decades about what made Ueck special to them: That he, even at 90 years old, was at his core just one of the boys. www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

How did this guy get through life learning to throw right handed. It. Was. Right. There.

My friends that go on baseball travels with me and I have been discussing going to the Midnight Sun game in Alaska this year...

Setting up at a card show for the first time in 20+ years. If you're in the Des Moines, IA area and collect cards, stop by and say hi!

@steaktostada.bsky.social Are you going to the Winter Classic this year?

Cal Quantrill Jose Quintana (if ya can't beat him...) Bounceback candidates: John Means or Shane Bieber (similar deal to Woodruff + a year or two) I'd love to see the Crew take a shot at Sean Manaea, but he's likely priced out.

To everyone who told me international tournaments don't matter, and anyone who questioned why the World Baseball Classic, the Olympics, and the Premier 12 are my favorite baseball events on Earth: CPBL Facebook posted this photo. Imagine the US having this reaction to a tourney win 😭

For the first time since its founding in 2020, Athletes Unlimited (AU) is organizing a traditional team-based league meant to be Major League Baseball for softball. And former Marlins GM Kim Ng is leading the charge. www.nytimes.com/athletic/594...
