Baseball idiot here: Is the Dodgers playing Yamamoto in the 9th a ‘Fuck you I’m rich’ move or ‘Fuck it we vibe’ move or both

This list is a splendid Monday Night read. It also reminds me of this Han Dynasty dude rocks so hard.

Julio Rodríguez is perfect. Many people are saying this.

Bro how does someone get another big magazine job after being exposed for simping for a man who eats stuff like this

onion person @junlper.beer · 2d

Recency bias: Caleb Downs might be the best Ohio State player I’ve ever watched in person

Baseball is dumb. Just do a dance battle or something already.

Have the Mariners ever played a normal baseball game?

BRB I’m just gonna go cry after just seeing my story packaged in The Athletic App with these two legends on Pablo Torre Finds Out

Technically if he put more shoulder into it, he probably could throw it to first

From @TheAthletic: Orion Kerkering is only the second player in Major League Baseball history to commit an error that ended a postseason series. No one will ever forget where Kerkering threw the ball, no matter how hard some might try. nyti.ms/48owLkr

Orion Kerkering sits devastated in the dugout after the Phillies were eliminated. A quote from Phillies manager Rob Thomson over it: “I feel for him because he’s putting it all on his shoulders.”

No What I’m saying is these Cubs fans need to return to their suburbs fast instead of hollering outside.

Also you can’t spell Philly without the 2 Ls tonight;)

outside.you

S/O to MLB for scheduling the Cubs game to start at 8p local because what we need in Lakeview are more helicopter sounds at 11:30p and a cop posting up in front of the Southport Lululemon all day.

I believe Big E stands for Eagles because this is how they play football

One more vintage October Clayton Kershaw performance baby

Minor complaint but I miss the days when we can talk trash about our mayor and governor. Illinois is a deeply unserious place and I look forward to the tomfoolery when things go back to normal.

Gregory Pratt @royalpratt.bsky.social · 7d

The President of the United States is calling for the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois to be jailed.

The book makes a lot of sense when you realize how much the Caroline and Luisa are just over the Brock Purdy talk

The Bennets are a 49ers family, I’m not going to argue about this with any of you

I love them both but Travis and Patrick look like they’re running a traveling medicine show in the Great Depression

Travis Kelce, wearing a newsies hat and a shirt that seems to be pattered on a motels wallpaper, and Patrick Mahomes, wearing a red checkered vest made out of an Italian restaurants tablecloth
