Its Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa and I take no pleasure in reporting this.

I do not gamble on baseball for obvious reasons, but I assume Misiorowski striking out Spencer Jones was off the board.

One of my favorite musical discoveries of last year was headlining for a local band that is the second band of my friendly local band. Stuck around and was really impressed. The ticket was like 12 bucks.

Oh.

“It’s extraordinary” is implied by everything in the description.

Who in the world is taking a bus to Box Elder?

At my age I am now mostly immune to Rolling Stone rage bait, but seeing MJ Lenderman ahead of Adrian Belew on “Born Under Punches” on the best guitar solo list is sending me. (“The Middle” ahead of literally any Albert King solo might be even worse)

Literally what the fuck just happened in Rays/Giants

So I have another update.

Big day tomorrow... 🥂

The Mammoth are the perfect mix of fun and maddening.

It’s time

Buehrle

Love to watch my team get a big double play to end an inning and then Eric Byrnes screams at me.

The Wisconsin lineup is loaded, led at the top by 2024 first rounder, Braylon Payne. Electric athlete with solid bat to ball skills. #Brewers

You know you are exiting Salt Lake County when the Jaxson Dart Minky Couture billboard shows up on I-15

Gonna get some very normal media leaks from the most normal media market.

Every time I look over at the Sens/Canes game on in the press box, there are just people on the ice getting pummeled.

Wishing for a fun and safe weekend for all the Wednesday fans at our national meetup in Austin today. I’d wish for a win, but let’s at least be realistic.

Nothing more satisfying than Dylan Guenther laying in an absolute piss missile of a slap shot.

Probably the album that altered the path of my musical taste the most.

I’ve had the chorus to “Glory Days” stuck in my head for 24 hours. Probably my own damn fault. www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...

I dunno that I am built for playoff hockey

Always love when I completely forget I preordered something months ago (usually bored at Water Witch on a Thursday)

How do teams play like this for like six weeks straight? This is just a brawl on skates.

Big Utah Mammoth guy checking in

It sure is

Honestly neither of these teams deserve to win the league

Still room on the Tanner Franklin bandwagon. www.baseballprospectus.com/prospects/ar...

The Nat King Cole “Quizas, Quizas, Quizas” in In The Mood for Love

I’m not huge on draft what-ifs because it’s hard to know the exact board and there are player development variables, but man if the Mets took McGonigle instead of Houck…

When Jarrett and I stop talking for a month because of “beef” over Brody Brecht.

Not all of the baseball media can be in the “have seen Rich Staff’s face club.”

I am extremely ambivalent about Hampshire closing for personal reasons (which with the benefit of 25 years of hindsight were mostly but not entirely my own fault). Still, not looking forward to it becoming a housing development or fancy summer camp or whatever.

That’s right

Ten Pack is back and a preview of coming attractions (my getting annoyed by Angels PD decisions) www.baseballprospectus.com/prospects/ar...

Dalton Rushing just unleashed the loudest “fuck” I’ve ever seen, and I watched Jeff McNeil for seven years.

Before I turn my attention to the minors, here’s one more top prospect off to…well, a start. www.baseballprospectus.com/prospects/ar...

Welcome to being the Mets ace, Nolan McLean.

I don’t know why I didn’t notice it before (possibly because I glaze over every time the ad comes on) but the CarShield knockoff Mr. Met is real nightmare fuel.

Benge has not been good and in the exact ways you might have clocked in spring, but sometimes you have to let someone be a bad major leaguer for a bit (possibly related: Cam Smith current leads all hitters in fWAR).

Folks we are back in an entirely new way now.

Bobby Jones incredible late-90s goatee deserves to be immortalized in bobblehead form.

it’s opening night (for me)

Is Real Salt Lake actually good this year? Is this something I actually need to investigate further?

Big deal I have like nine in my fridge.

Major League Baseball is hard and Kevin McGonigle is already not making it easy for pitchers. www.baseballprospectus.com/prospects/ar...

No, I just actually use that many em-dashes.

Vaguely obsessed with this. youtu.be/gme17T5WQNM?...

This is where I stand, but I assume they want to be able to speed up those 10-2 games when the relievers can’t throw strikes.
