At some point people started conflating “contrarian” with “smart.”

It’s a bummer they done name a DSMVP, but you’d have to think Polanco, Kirby, Gilbert, and Kerry Carpenter would’ve been in the discussion. If they wanted to make it Carpenter, I wouldn’t even have been mad.

Ohh la la

I’m not sure Moyer has the juice, but a team HOFer is a reasonable call.

Marilyn is a pretty good call. I got to chat with her in Cooperstown this year!

Rizzs. It’s Rick Rizzs. What’re you doing.

So lemme think, guys who I bet take first pitches at Mariners playoff games going forward:

King Félix
Randy Johnson
Junior
Nelson Cruz
Ichiro

I think the M’s are locked into the “road” team for the World Series, should they get there, so you only need one more person. But who?

The complicated solution is my thing against the Blue Jays.

Sister, you’re telling me 😵

I mean, with The Maple Grove, I’m evidence of that, too.

In 2022, I got a text from a number I wasn’t familiar with, with a picture of me holding a sign… it wasn’t until a week later that I reconnected with the friend, turned out to be an ex of mine who had changed her number.

I’m somewhat notorious for keeping positive relations with exes.

But how would you get into a 10’ public toilet?

I think my annoyance at visiting fans taking over my park is going to win the day on this, especially since the Mariners are going to have to play against Canada in the ALDS.

Daniel Carroll @tworsandtwols.bsky.social · 16h

- I hate it when the visiting fans take over my park, which Cubs fans do to the Brewers, so I have a solidarity here with Brewers fans.
- I liked my visits to Wrigley more than my visits to County Stadium/Miller Park/AmFam Field.

- The Brewers were once the Seattle Pilots, which most people see as a positive, but I might decide to hold my grandmother's grudge against them for leaving.
- I like the idea of the Mariners going to the World Series and playing a team with some real history.

I've had some trouble deciding who to root for in the Cubs/Brewers NLDS. Some considerations:

- I have family who are Cubs fans
- The Cubs won in 2016, which was fantastic but may have sent us on the Dark Timeline
- The Brewers have never won the World Series, nor have they represented the NL

I can't believe the ALCS starts *tomorrow*

I feel like I need several days to recover from that.

"So, you live three hours from Seattle?"

"Yes."

"And Toronto is 3,500 kilometers and three time zones away from you?"

"Yes, Dave."

"But you root for the Blue Jays instead of the Mariners?"

"That's correct, Dave."

I’ve never seen a baseball crowd like that.

When I heard about the 18-inning Astros crowd being up on their feet all game, I thought it was an exaggeration. This was for real.
