I would hope and expect that this is the plan if for some reason Kirby comes out early.

We will pod tomorrow if I'm well enough. Not sure if we should talk about the M's advancing or the M's getting eliminated. I suppose we could decide later tonight

It's October 10th. Only six teams are still playing baseball and one of them is the Seattle Mariners! GOMS

I’ll say this: I would if I had the means and a border weren’t involved. This season has been special no matter what happens.

This round of playoffs has worked out very nicely. We get one series winner each of four consecutive nights: Blue Jays, Dodgers, TBD, TBD.

Requesting a trade to the Seattle Mariners might be the closest thing MLB has to a witness protection program. I for one would be happy to have Kerkering

Mine is the right mix of gallows humour and sympathy

I beat myself up for saying "you too!" in response to a cashier telling me to enjoy my coffee, I can't even imagine.

At least it’s an unearned run

Hate that I’m immediately thinking of the messages Kerkering will receive from sports gamblers

As a near-neutral (pulling for the Phillies but don’t really care) this game is very good. But I can imagine how it would be also be agonizing

1/ My Blue Jays: A socialist reverie…

My Dad took me to the first Blue Jays game in 1977. It was so cold in Exhibition Stadium (“The Mistake by the Lake”) that asses were freezing to the aluminum bleachers.

It snowed, people left. We stayed, the Jays won!

I’ll be living vicariously through everyone at the game, so even on a selfish level I want you to have a good time!

If it were me, I’d keep the Saturday flight. No shortage of things to do in Toronto, and if there are any travel complications Sunday it could affect one’s enjoyment of the game.

I'm always especially sad when players from the junk wax era pass away. I'm sure I have at least a dozen of his cards.

Will you please send me images of the political mailers you receive?

Kershaw is a tragic figure only in that he could have finished his career a universally respected figure but instead chose to be a massive dingus
