too dumb to be probated; not too dumb to be autobanned
I remember seeing Baty homer in his first MLB at bat and going "that guy could be the Mets 3B of the future". Then tonight after watching him misplay a pop up and have the ball bounce and hit him in the face I went "wow, he's doing it, he's truly a Met now"

I was in a jury pool this week with an elder baseball boomer. When asked if he watched Ohtani, he chuckled and said he didn't watch the junior circuit. Huge cubs and Dodgers fan, I haven't seen that tandem before.

I’m very happy if I break 6/9. I’m just terrible at remembering journeyman relievers who walked the central divisions like the guy from the Jack o’ Lantern myth.

He hit his first home run since May 10 yesterday and he's still tied for the team lead in homers.

But they are still saying they're going to pitch him on Friday against the Pirates. For reasons.

From what I gather through translated interviews, Ohtani doesn’t know how to say No. With enough of their team on the IL to form a second team, he is probably trying to power through.

BUT WHAT ARE THE TRAINERS THINKING?!?!?!

The important thing is that it happened and we have gained ground, FINALLY, on the Best Division in Baseball -- shoutout to the Rangers, sorry Guards. If we can actually start pulling away from .500 I'll be ecstatic. Who's up next?

*checks notes*

Aw, crap, them? We gotta go fight Chaos itself? The other team constantly stuck as via gravity to .500?

Nuts. And I like the Mariners, too. Well, such is baseball. Get ready, Goms, we're coming to town!

Quiet, you. One of those was a three-run game, that's (barely) not what I'd call close!

(Pay no attention to how long it took to get that three-run gap because Lopez had a really bad day, we're not talking about that right now.)

Ask me how to run a good team into the ground.
After today's loss, the Padres are now 0-10 in extra inning games and 5-22 when adding in one run games so far this season.

There was basically no way the Twins could come out of that series and satisfied anyone. Every game could have been blowout victories and it would have just been, "well, it's the As"

Enjoy the victories, RF, that's the point of the thing

True, yeah. I do need to try to just start enjoying the moments more rather than thinking myself out of enjoyment.
