Seems like it’s time to repost this song about how the people in charge of the government would like nothing better than for you to starve to death.

Just one week until “Stay Woke” and “Anti-Antifa” are out. Here’s a clip of “Anti-Antifa” a quick ripper that doubles as a grammar lesson for those among us who are missing the point. Thank you to @davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social for providing the guitar solo for this one. Out November 14th!

Jokes aside (and it is *extremely* difficult to put jokes aside), DePodesta's involvement with the DeShaun Watson trade is more gross than incompetent, and it's very incompetent. Sorry to the folks in Denver, you've already been through too much.

Listening to the Snocaps record and realizing that I kind of forgot about this song my friend Kat and I put out back in 2020. I still love it. therefurbishments.bandcamp.com/track/p-s-el...

I can't believe the Mets let Antoan Richardson get away.

Look, I voted for Mamdani early. I canvassed for him. It's the only time I can ever recall being excited about a mayoral candidate. But I'm glad I didn't know about this beforehand because I would have voted for Mamdani so hard that I broken the damn scantron machine.

Brian is a treasure.

Just walked by a guy drinking one of those large Starbucks cold brews with the foam on top and I swear it looked just like he was starting his day with a full pint of Guinness.

This is a wonderful thread about a killer album. Happy anniversary!

To anyone not into baseball I’m sorry but also get into baseball

Everyone knows the real star of the World Series is the backup cleat cleaner.

If this was the goal, then he REALLY should have let the beard grow.

Seems like the phrasing could use some work here...

Oh, and I made this lyric video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN4b...

On this spookiest of days, I once again remind you all that @depstein1983.bsky.social and I recorded an entire album about the monster cereals and it is some of the best music I have ever made in my life. dananddavy.bandcamp.com/album/sweet-...

Baseball people, music people, I need your help: What song is the organist playing during this video?

We're one Dodger win away from getting to make this reference for the first time since the pandemic-

Gonna need Fox to use some Rural Alberta Advantage as bumper music at some point here.

This is genuinely the greatest thing I have ever seen.

Does it mean anything when a pitcher fondles the rosin bag too much? AI from Google Cloud knows that 22% of pitchers play with a rosin bag enough to make you uncomfortable, and 6% of those pitchers have been arrested for misdemeanors or worse. All of them must report to Google's Reeducation Center.

Before I wrote about baseball, this was the kind of day I ADORED. Sitting at my desk, pretending to work, and reading every awesome article I could find about last night's game. Here's my contribution, a breakdown of all the bonkers baserunning plays. blogs.fangraphs.com/the-baserunn...

It's completely full! They're back to tongue depressors!

Will Klein is coming up Will Groß.

Seems like it's time for me to bump the best story I've written so far this year. blogs.fangraphs.com/how-much-can...

@mikepetriello.bsky.social Catch prob?

It's completely covered in dirt. There is almost no rubber visible.

Kershaw gets out of that jam and finds himself retroactively livid at all the relievers who let his inherited runners score during the playoffs.

I'm calling it now: There's gonna be a balk. It's the only thing left.

Uh, are they playing "We Are Young" while Kershaw warms up?

Man, look at the poor cleat cleaner. Just absolutely wrecked after 12 innings.

The only thing this game is missing is a Jonas Brothers concert

messed up a pitch? lil walk. on the cusp of strike 3? lil walk. almost got hit by the ball? lil walk.

the words "the beauty of baseball is its uninterrupted agony" should be forged into iron and hung over the entrance to the baseball hall of fame

Snell may have an elevated pitch count and he may have coughed up the lead, but he has also caused two Blue Jays to swing so wildly that their helmets fell off their heads, and that’s got to count for something.

This probably sounds dumb, but I'd never hit Ohtani leadoff so that the pitcher has to actively face a batter while being aware that Ohtani is lurking in the shadows and will arrive soon

The most exciting part of the World Series is Shohei Ohtani not moving a muscle.

You should read this.

hi toronto people, maybe you can help out

Whew I knew there were a lot of splitters this month but @davyandrewsdavy.bsky.social has some CHARTS to prove it. blogs.fangraphs.com/the-month-of...

They should invent a playoffs that doesn’t go past my bedtime.

This is so important.

Aries: A stranger is just a friend you haven't trapped in the catacombs yet.

I am so proud of you, LA. I always believed in you.

Los Angeles: I nobody makes a sign that has a picture of Shohei Ohtani and says, "Well, maybe just ONE king," I will be very disappointed in you.

I think they should let the announcers swear a little bit when Shohei does stuff like tonight.

That’s ME in The Mets Newsletter. I also said that @michaelclair.bsky.social was a rock star.
