I have such a strong emotional response to this song. The place where I work accompanies a lot of people who are suffering, especially now, and this song so beautifully speaks to people's strength while also acknowledging how dark the world can feel. Tears every time.

I think Bieber is a very intriguing option with some upside. Eflin worries me, and I'm hoping Grayson forces his way in. If they went this route, I hope they invested in a deep bullpen.

It's so odd to me that they don't use that same ball in all of professional baseball. What do pitchers say about the change?

As an O's fan, this is the highlight of a brutal year! Feel for Yamamoto though.

I bet there are writers at the Athletic realizing they better up their game now that you've arrived! WaPo and Athletic subscriber. Glad I won't miss your writing!

I hoped we were trying to replicate the Astros, but are we actually trying to do the Rays without the same success developing pitchers? I'd feel much better if the sell off came with a couple extensions to the young core.

Presto was my gateway drug that kicked off a high school obsession with Rush. Went to a record store at midnight to buy Counterparts on its release date. High school sucked, but loving music in high school was a special, pure kind of love.

Thought Kjerstad was maybe breaking out after a decent series in Seattle, and then benched for this whole series?

I have a lot of admiration for how Elias built a player development system and got the team back in Latin America. And the trade for Burnes last year was great! But then, from the trade deadline to the off-season, oof.
