Got an autographed Danny P rookie card to add to the #cubs ofrenda today… hope it helps

Shota Imanaga just experienced every stage of grief on one fly ball (that was caught). 🤣 Wait for it.

Watching Italy v Venezuela WBC and trying to figure out how they are going to get through the broadcast without mentioning 37 times that Paul Skenes was in the Air Force Acadamy

Watching WBC, and I can’t get past how bad the US hat logo is. We really need to do better as a nation. The jersey logo stinks too.

I randomly bought one of those hanger packs of baseball cards at Target and got some fun stuff: 2 PCA chase cards and the Seiya/PCA BFF card, which is maybe the greatest card I’ve even seen #cubs #topps

Greg Maddux won a record 18 Gold Gloves. Here’s 127 seconds of why. 🥇

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Listening to Tusk by Fleetwood Mac really brings home how much Lindsey Buckingham was the weak link from a songwriting perspective.

Reposting this for #Godzilla Day

I carved a pretty rad #godzilla pumpkin this year

Cancelled my Disney+ subscription today. I don't even like Jimmy Kimmel, but I like bowing to fascism even less. #CancelDisney #CancelDisneyPlus

Kyle Tucker seeking another opinion on his calf. With his injuries and extended period of poor play this season, I wonder if he could be looking at a 1-2 year "show me" contract like Bellinger did with the Cubs rather than the 10-year megadeal everyone has been predicting.

#Cubs fans, are we officially worried about Matthew Boyd now?

The version of “Gimme Some Lovin’” in the Cold Stone commercial the keep showing during the Cubs games is so, so bad. It’s honestly upsetting.

I watched The Bad News Bears last night for the first time in its not-edited-for-tv version. Much darker than I remembered, more troubling than funny. Still nails today's youth sports vibe, sadly. Also - Am I the only one that only just realized that Kelly Leak grew up to become Rorschach?

Got the new @grantleephillips.bsky.social record delivered, and is unsurprisingly great. He never disappoints.

No #cubs game today, so here’s a cool shot I took at Angel Stadium on Saturday night - I was lucky enough to go to two of the games. Besides the sweep, one cool thing was the nice ovation that Kyle Hendricks got from Cubs fans when he came out of the game.

F the Brewers forever, but Pat Murphy is a national treasure.

You wanna know how old I am? I just accidentally inhaled a Grape Nut

My father-in-law has the classic old guy thing where he gets everybody’s name wrong. Last week he called Dansby Swanson “Stanley” and now that’s all we call him around my house. Big hit? “YEAH STANLEY!!!” #cubs

Top 10 in the 21st century... just the first ones I thought of, I'd probably change half of these if I thought about it longer, but I love all these movies.

In honor of Moises Ballesteros getting the call to the show today, I’m reposting some pics I took of him with Ben Brown (today’s SP!) in Spring Training this year

I bought John Prine’s self-titled album a while back, but somehow am just now getting around to listening to it through the first time tonight. These songs are so beautiful and sad… it’s a little overwhelming

I think this is my best @dailywalkoff.com yet: Daily Walkoff ⚾ #209 30 for 30 Swings: 59 🚀1️⃣: AZ, LAA, LAD, NYY, PHI, SF, TOR 🚀2️⃣: ATL, BOS, CHC, CWS, CIN, CLE, DET, HOU, MIL, MIN, NYM, OAK, PIT, SD, SEA, STL, TB 🚀3️⃣: BAL, COL, KC, MIA, TEX, WSH dailywalkoff.com

I’m no @sambernero.bsky.social , but I had pretty amazing seats to last nights #cubs #springtraining game

Best vinyl side ever is a tough one, but The Cure Disintegration side B is definitely a contender.

I had to borrow an old car with only a CD player for a long road trip recently and did myself the favor of relistening to Michael Chabon’s The Yiddish Policeman’s Union as performed by Peter Riegert. Got it from my library. Best audiobook performance I’ve ever heard, just an absolute pleasure.

Alex Bregman rejoins old pal Alex Cora in Boston for $120MM and an undisclosed number of trash cans.

I know this won’t happen, but I would LOVE for the Cubs to sign Kiké Hernandez. Great fit to fill out the bench, premium vibes, and all the postseason mojo. My favorite non-Cub player.

Went mountain biking today and had a major realization. I am not the oldest of the young guys. I’m the youngest of the old guys.

Real people need real help right now. Who knows how long it will take insurance to come through. My sister lives in Altadena, and even though she’s ok, a lot of people aren’t. This is my sister’s gym, they are good people trying to help folks who have lost everything. gofund.me/51781648

New personal best in days active and total miles - my @veloviewer.com graphic shows my walks as “runs”, but same difference. Next year goals of 300+ days, 500+ miles on foot, and more than 1500 total miles.

Impossible assignment: name your top 3 Diana Ross/Supremes songs: 1. Love Child 2. You Keep Me Hanging On 3. Reflections. And there’s about 10 more songs I hate myself fire leaving off the list.

If it has been a while since you listened to Love Hangover by Diana Ross, do yourself the favor and thank me after.

This is impossible. My favorite album released in the: 1970s: Stones- Exile on Main St 1980s: The Cure - The Head on the Door 1990s: Beastie Boys - Check Your Head 2000s: Aimee Mann - Bachelor No 2 2010s: Grant-Lee Phillips - Lightning, Show Us Your Stuff 2020s: Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever

It sucks when you talk to someone and they tell you they are a reader and you get excited and then find out they mean self-help and corporate leadership books. Yuck.

@ken-rosenthal.bsky.social is dropping some truth right here. www.nytimes.com/athletic/599...

My plan to accelerate the Cubs/Astros trade negotiations for Kyle Tucker: Astros: "We like the Paredes + Cassie offer, but we aren't sure if we are ready to pull the trigger yet." Jed: [bangs trash can]

Not completely inconceivable 2025 Cubs roster to dream on: C: Amaya/Kelly 1B: Busch 2B: Nico SS: Dansby 3B: Shaw LF: Happ CF: PCA RF: *Tucker DH: Seiya SP: Shota, Steele, *Sasaki, Taillon, Boyd Bench: Tater, Vazquez, Alcantara RP: Hodge, *Finnegan, Morgan, Assad, Miller, Pearson, Brown, AAA Shuttle

I hereby declare today, and every 12/10 for all perpetuity, to be the official start of Double Digit December. This means wine and nog are acceptable on any night and in any quantity you deem necessary until the new year.

Today Daily Walkoff taught me that Ty Wiggington played for the Rockies, and apparently half of the other teams in baseball.

So, there’s one of those weird Hollywood murals at the Edwards Cinema in Temecula CA. For the life of me I can’t figure out who the woman is that is painted front and center with Harrison Ford. Any ideas? Also, who is that talking to Jack?

There have been some really great names rising through the ranks in baseball lately. I’m not sure if this is our friends at @baseball-reference.com with their typical lowkey hilarity or if it is legit, but this young man’s nickname is 😂😂😂
