Posted this yesterday. He was clutch today.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 1d

All things considered, the Twins should have kept Jorge and it's good to see him in the playoffs and being clutch for the Mariners.

He had the most losses in the league that year. He repeated the same feat 5 years later with the Cardinals. Both years, 19 losses. A weird career.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 3h

There aren't many big names left that haven't been injured. It's a mess for sure.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 3h

Yeah. I honestly don't think they're done. However, I can't imagine a beat up team like this making a playoff run of any kind. Maybe if they find a way to pull off another CMC- like trade, but otherwise it's easy to see them torturing us by hanging around, but ultimately doing nothing.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 4h

I'd love those. Thank you!

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 4h

I get it. I really do. However, they're still tied for the division lead and their schedule going forward includes some pretty soft teams (Browns, Giants, Titans, Cardinals). Really, other than games against the Colts, Rams and Seahawks, they're schedule isn't too difficult if they play decent.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 4h

Yeah, playoff baseball is another level.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 4h

Yeah, it's brutal. The only good thing is that the division isn't really that strong. Seattle is probably the best team at this point.

One of my all time favorite #SFGiants. His 1989 season was epic! 13 year old me thought he was going to be a HOFer. I didn't understand back then how difficult it really is to get in to Cooperstown. Kevin still had a very nice career. 234 homers. .284 lifetime batting average.

This guy with another big homer. What a season he's had!

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · Sep 3

I might have paid too much for this (although who knows), but it fits perfectly in my Allen & Ginter mini framed collection and Cal is having such a historic season!

This year's Niners team has too many injuries. Now Fred Warner is out for the year. It's going to be tough for them to maintain an above .500 record IMO, unless they make a high impact trade soon.

Trump won Wisconsin by less than 1%. Not defending those who voted for him at all, but it definitely was not a landslide there.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 1d

I'm a #SFGiants fan. It's always #BeatLA. I'll never root for the Dodgers.

Also, Trump won Wisconsin, but not Milwaukee or Madison proper. I used to live in Wisconsin. It's been a split state for decades.

As a fan of both the #MNTwins and #SFGiants, this is the best. Having auto cards of a favorite player on both teams. "Late Night" LaMonte had some really nice seasons for the Giants between 2021 and 2024.

Nathan @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social · 1d

I want the Brewers to win because they've never won a World Series, but this hits hard.

The sign at Murphy's Bleachers reads "Let's win this for Ryno & Sister Jean! Go Cubbies" in advance of today's Game 5 in Milwaukee

I like to share this article from time to time, specifically for those who moan about the baseball HOF being "watered down" over the past decade or so. www.mlb.com/news/hall-of...

Is the Hall leaving out too many players?

With the release of the 2021 Hall of Fame ballot earlier this month, our thoughts turned to the institution of the Hall itself, and particularly this question: Are enough players being inducted? Or to...
