I rode through this town once as a teenager on my way to a college visit at Mizzou.

Hard throwers and strikeout pitchers. As many as you can possibly sign, Jed

I just came across an old Chicago Tribune article recapping the first-ever game by the Chicago White Stockings (who would later become the Cubs) in 1870. It came with VERY thorough uniform descriptions. I can just hear this in Pat Hughes's voice.

UNIFORM OF THE CHICAGO NINE
The Chicago nine were clad in their new uniform, which they had donned for the first time, and an elegant one it is. It consists of a blue cap adorned with a white star in the centre, white flannel shirt, trimmed with blue and bearing the letter C upon the breast worked in blue. Pants of bright blue flannel, with white cord, and supported by a belt of blue and white; stockings of pure white British thread, shoes of white goatskin, with the customary spikes, the ensemble constituting by far the showiest and handsomest uniform ever started by a base ball club. Already the snowy purity of the hose has suggested the name of "White Stockings" for the nine, and it is likely to become as generally accepted, not to say as famous, as that of the sanguinary extremities.

Joey Votto is incorrigible.

Joey Votto tweet:

Braves fans, I want to sincerely apologize for guessing so incorrectly, dismissing your offense. I hear you. Good luck in your next series in Los Angeles.
Dodgers in 5.

Joey Votto quote tweeting Doug Glanville: Thanks Doug, but I didn’t really mean the apology.

Doug Glanville quote tweeting Joey Votto: No worries, man. You are bringing such great and unique insight. Savant level content. Everyone on Earth second guesses. That is easy. Pedestrian. Much harder to first guess and own it. See you on the road.

All I'm going to say about the Cubs season right now is it was very weird. Possibly the weirdest season they've had since I started following them over 20 years ago. There was lots of chaos, and never a dull moment, that's for sure

A little known fact about the CARS universe, is that post-World War 2 many Volkswagens, BMWs and Mercedes fled to Cargentina to avoid the Nuremberg Time Trials

That would be fine with me. Not many good free agent options this time but I'd like them to try someone else.

when people look at the pythag record with the cubs this year i hope they do it honestly. because you would have to be a moron to place that on Craig Counsell. It was the bullpen options. like honestly they were lucky it didn't blow up sooner. that's counsell's credit.
