@nickpollack.pitcherlist.com the weight lifting metaphor was really good and I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the ramping up process for young arms is based loosely off of some parts or versions of it.

it was only like two years ago where you’d still have people drafting top closers in the top-50 of a cutline the edge is pretty thin these days

Meanwhile, the @mlb.com news tab:

River Ryan would have quite the stat line going against this minor league Rangers lineup, if he had literally any other left fielder

imagine feeling “sniped” on Dollander in the 35th round of a free league I need another hobby

it’s officially baseball season for me

@ericstephen.bsky.social Elmer Dessens old friend alert

TOOTBLAN

@mikepetriello.bsky.social I wish Vin was here to see Jacob throwing soap bubbles!

yordan has a .297 OPS, is he working on a new pitch or something?

Luzardo for the Glasnow contract? absolutely.

Acuña crank n gank, hell yeah

post post POST hype?

why does it feel like this spring, every team has like 3+ breakout guys

three hits and 6 RBI for Freddy Fermin today, game of his life I bet. like, including little league.

kwaAaAaAannn songgg (Sisqo voice)

ordered a pair of these and will only be deadlifting at the gym from now on

little too much risk with the pitching, now that I look back at it (12-team, 30 round roto league with weekly FAAB)

@jeffwzimmerman.bsky.social 100% with you on Burns (he’s the only one of those young guys I’ve drafted at all, and I think you should have included Sheehan), McClean, Luzardo, and Eovaldi. Which hitter is your pick for “has sprint speed, and min. 7 OAA but bad contact” breakout? Crews? Denzel?

Nothing better than live #FantasyBaseball draft with friends! SCARF Year 5!! @brocnessmonster.bsky.social @rotosurgeon.bsky.social @jeff-erickson.bsky.social @topangajeff.bsky.social @swirka.bsky.social

Shane Baz, Noah Song & Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the bump... MLB Spring Training Pitchers ⤵️⚾️ @ftnfantasy.com ftnfantasy.com/mlb/spring-t...

real prospect pedigree

noooooooooo

Jorge Mateo revenge game

why does @MLB clip the highlights on the app to start RIGHT away? you open a home run video and the guy makes contact while all the clip settings are still overlayed onto the video. just clip it to 3 seconds before the pitcher starts his pitch so we see the whole thing.

Vegas Hyrox with my fiancée, 1:18:51 (~4th or so in our heat out of 35-40 couples)

Royce Lewis crank n gank

poll: Aaron Nola or Spencer Strider? 2026 season 5x5 stats are all that matter.

she said yes and we have eaten a lot of ice cream

highly recommend this vacation stuff

maybe they should just stop doing injury screenings, then there would be no more injuries. right? that was smart peoples plan for covid.

hamates

never mind, please stop reporting to spring training this isn’t what we had in mind

the president has to be the only dude on the planet looking up TV ratings, right?

let’s draft an OC at 7pm (left coast time) tonight! @nfbc

rather watch dorky fans shoot halftime shots for $10k than watch the Lakers

keep climbing, it’s worth it

you get what you pay for, Ned Colletti

I was hoping the Dodgers would invite me to spring training but then I remembered, tough luck, I bought tickets and I’m coming regardless

A WILHELM SCREAM Drop Ripping New Single "Let It Ride" metalinjection.net/video/a-wilh...

yesterday at ice cream that Don Henley song (or the Eagles?) came on “this is the endddd of the innocence..” and I was reminded, when I was a kid, Harry and the Hendersons was a big deal in my house and I thought that song went “this is the endddd of the Hendersons…” I just thought it was a sad song

picking 15th in a DC for the third time in a row

maybe @productiveouts.bsky.social did this, or maybe I'm going to draft him in my fantasy baseball draft 🤔

Seattle telecaster voice: GEEEEEENO!

he’s gonna completely tank the economy and his fans are all gonna be like hey look houses are affordable again ,,, thank you sir ,,, and it’s just because they’ve all lost their jobs

Mets get LuBob for bread crumbs simply for taking on some salary Every team in baseball could have gotten better by spending a little money and they didn’t

Lakers making the Jokic-less Nuggets look like the Globetrotters 🤣

The A’s host the Brewers and Rockies in Vegas June 8-14 this year, I hadn’t heard of that
