Deliberately spelled Zach because he wasn’t aware his name actually has a k in it yet.

now I’m thinking about the most crushing loss I’ve seen in baseball
Ubaldo Jimenez watching Edwin Encarnacion’s walk-off home run fly out of the park while Encarnacion lifts his arms in triumph and Matt Wieters says “fuck it, I’m out of here.”
Not pictured: Zach Britton sitting in the bullpen

Why are they interviewing Pages he didn’t walk it off 😂
alainnfocail.bsky.social
Haha I don’t care about the Dodgers walking it off, I was neutral about the results of the game , I just hate Pages.
alainnfocail.bsky.social
Turns out I should’ve been more specific.
alainnfocail.bsky.social
Or that. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

If Pages walks this off I swear to fucking god

Uuugh Peralta. Cubs need to go ahead and lose so we can get a new manager.
alainnfocail.bsky.social
Or more. Unfortunately can’t compete without it

Oh yeah, our cats have been even more all over us on the sofa. I like it.

I was talking to another friend about that a bit ago. He’s just unimpressed by the tall guys.

Was just thinking about turning the heat on. Decided to grab a thicker sofa blanket again and am sitting here grumpy about it.

nah it’s because the Orioles don’t have bullpen arms 25 and under.

In my mind bullpen pitchers are all 30+ which mostly says a lot about Elias’s roster management.
We apparently have a few on the roster right now who are 28/29. They were all added in the last few months. And none throw 100mph.

I watched that video so many times last night. It was high art.

A lot of these teams have bullpen pitchers who look like children. They have been pitching with…varying degrees of efficacy.

Was it you who had asked who people thought it would be better for the Blue Jays to face in the ALDS?
Because I’ve been thinking that I’m pretty proud of myself for picking the Yankees and that my reasoning turned out to be pretty solid 😂😂

I think it’s funny that the Orioles pitching staff is so tall that they’ve just stopped talking about it at this point.

Does anyone know how tall Tyler Glasnow is

The other two shelves after moving some stuff onto the new shelf and doing some reorganizing. Still chaotic but unless I take everything off and start over it’s going to be chaotic. And, lol, hahaha, no.

Yes there’s a Hillary Clinton nutcracker on the back of the top shelf.
Two dark grey shelves against a bright orange wall covered in various Orioles and Dodgers memorabilia plus one Braves bobblehead and Drew’s nutcracker collection which is mostly baseball themed but does also include a Hillary Clinton nutcracker.

I totally forgot about that part until right now so I hadn’t shared that part of the story!
We were working down in the living room at the time so I read the letter for the first time in front of them and I was laughing so hard that they DEMANDED I share.

I never would’ve thought to put it up there but it literally arrived when I had professional organizers at my house to help get my place in order for chemo and I ended up doing a dramatic reading of it for them and the organizer was like “well this obviously HAS to go up here.” 😂😂😂😂
