Saw this too. The CEO or whatever of the scummy company pretending that they came up with all these identical ideas on their own was bad too. I think they've even been trying to trademark some of the designs.

T-shirt bros are a pretty awful online culture, IMO.

It’s Scherzer’s teres muscle, which is the same thing that got JV in the spring. It’s also the only two times in my life I’ve heard about this muscle

Yeah, the t-shirt guy stealing ideas is terrible, but the other people complaining are also just selling the likeness of athletes without compensating them for it. PCA isn't getting a dime for those shirts. They're all playing the same game.

Specifically it's the teres MAJOR, which pulls the humorus backward and downward and helps stabilize the shoulder joint. I only mention this because the teres minor is part of the rotator cuff and can be involved in a rotator cuff tear, which this isn't.

The Orioles should probably think long and hard about whether they actually want to hold the Rays off, and also maybe not go 1-18 with RISP in the last 2 games against bad pitchers.

there was some gif someone made a couple years ago where the red sox (I think) were DJing and when they beat the... yankees? can't remember which team, but it pans out the window to three people partying and it was the blue jays, m's and rays

anyone still have that?

I'm sure there's a million reasons to pick on his tactics, or something, but Brian Snitker is such a sweet guy every time the Braves clinch a division, I just feel so happy for all the dudes on that team.

I looked into the idea of getting into the generic t-shirt selling game at one point and it was clear half the internet had beat me to the market and the forums for discussing strategies and whatnot made FYAD posters in their heyday look like beacons of humanity.

Oh, it's about to get better. After Texas completes their sweep tomorrow, the Jays have their final 15 games against AL East opponents. So far the Jays are 12-25 (.324) against the AL East. There's a small, but very real possibility that the Jays will lose 19 games in a row to end the season and finish just below .500. I would not put it past them.

There’s a contingent of Braves fans who just absolutely despise Snitker and think literally anyone else could manage them better, and I just don’t understand it at all. His teams have done nothing but win, his players clearly love him and play hard for him day in and day out, and there’s never been even a whisper of clubhouse drama — but I’m supposed to hate him because he hits Sean Murphy seventh instead of sixth or puts in a reliever who didn’t have it that day?

To me, the guy is clearly the second-best manager in franchise history.
