The Mets would have recommended zero surgeries and just told him to walk it off after a cortisone shot.

As a Royals fan who watched him for years: gently caress Whit Merrifield.

I guess he had surgery to remove the Plicae in his right knee last fall after the playoffs. I have no idea what that is but supposedly it's what kept causing his tendonitis and inflammation last year.

this is a great video but you REALLY need to be prepared to confront the deepest mystery of the universe (why Taillon sucks so bad after getting to a 0-1 count as often as Mad Max)

I'm calling bullshit on this. Unless you count all the players in camp and not just the 26 man roster? I guess if you have 80 players and they each eat 4 eggs a day that is 360?

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
legends about the appetites of baseball players in particular are their own subgenre, remember reading the hall of shame books about them. Dwight Gooden was renowned, can’t find some of the stories but an offhand one from an SI article

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

When I was a real l'il Facepalmer, my grandparents would hire hay crews in the summer and the rule of thumb was every five of them would need a loaf of bread, a chicken, and a pie, plus some other sides for lunch and they would usually be able to clear the table no problem. I can't even imagine how much a pro team would be able to put down, but I bet a college football team would be absolutely insane.

Eating egg whites and not yokes is not some wild baseless thing that pro atheletes do because they "believe really stupid poo poo about nutrition"

If you are trying to hit a protein goal without surpassing a caloric target, i.e. you are building and maintaining muscle without adding fat, egg whites are a great source of protein. You can even get cartons of liquid egg white from the grocery store or costco.

In the pantheon of "weird poo poo baseball players eat or think about food" eating egg whites is extremely dull and normie

Plus I think it eliminates a lot of cholesterol from the egg, which is mostly in the yolk I think? Egg whites are delicious though and I'm a fat goon, not a pro athlete.
