His conscience is eating at him. He knows he should be in federal prison.
Most retarded thing I’ve seen on this app today, thank you Cameron
At some point, baseball has to get back to valuing ballplayers and not just numbers on a screen. Give me the Freddie Freemans, the Buster Poseys, Hunter Pences, Pablo Sandovals, Michael Youngs, Ian Kinslers of the world. Guys who just flat out know how to play the game. Everyone wants to talk launch angle and exit velo, but what happened to valuing a quality at bat?” The 9-pitch battle that might end in an out, but forces a pitcher to show everything he’s got.
The guy who hits behind the runner, takes what’s given, or just refuses to give a pitcher an easy inning. Those at-bats might not look sexy in the box score, but they show up in the 7th, 8th, and 9th. Some of these dudes could absolutely leave the yard too. That’s the point. They weren’t one-dimensional. Somewhere along the way, we confused measurable tools with knowing how to win baseball games.
I’m not against analytics or hitting the ball hard, but there is an art to winning that you can’t fully measure. We need more guys who know how to play baseball, not just hitters, not just athletes, ballplayers. And I promise you, those dudes never go out of style

I wrote a story about this in 2021 that detailed the uniform change. Jerry told his marketing guy he wanted a uniform they could keep forever, basically, and they crushed it. nytimes.com/athletic/2482781…

Top row (L-R): Died, ok, ass, mega ass.
Bottom row (L-R): Still dead, ok, became good then died, my glorious GOAT Javier Assad.
While we thank him for his contribution during our championship run we officially disavow Steven Kwan that fucking scum bag

Laz Diaz, in his last game as a plate ump, letting it rip for Justin Verlander, in his last game period, immediately after the clubs used all their ABS challenges is so funny and old school

If Max Scherzer's daughter ran out there to get him he would probably start yelling at her to get off the field.

Jason Benetti gets absolutely roasted by his own production crew with the camera cut after his Austro-Turkish War reference. 🤣
