also figuring out who the players were on the American Dreams was fun (some obvious, some not so like Lefty O'Doul!)

Matt Snyder @mattsnydercbs.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

man this really takes me back. My brother and I made teams based at first on the current (at the time obvs) MLB teams, but then would go back and create all-time franchise teams. It's one of the reasons I fell in love with the history of the game. I just wanted to build a great all-time team

today was one of those days where I feel sorry for people who don't follow sports. Ok, so pretty much everyday that's the case, but today was one of those great examples of why

home runs (not bunts) have made all the difference today -- as usual in the playoffs

The first batter Jacob Misiorowski faced this season was Chase Meidroth and Chase Meidroth took him deep. Shane Smith started that game for the White Sox. Austin Hays, Everson Pereira, and Edgar Quero were in the starting lineup. The White Sox lost, 14-2. Feels like a million years ago.

always a good sign when your playoff pitching plan is similar to spring training

Austin Riley against 95 mph+ four-seamers this year: .182 AVG, .313 SLG. He turned around 100 to win the game.

ok, time to disqualify the playoff team that can't even get an opener through the first inning of Game 1

When i went to IU, we'd get really excited about back-to-back wins (other than the gimmes, but then sometimes we lost the gimmes ... ). Now? That's 20 straight wins. TWENTY! In football!

the Red Sox are playing a practice game and the Cubs can't even mount a rally

The White Sox have to retire Munetaka Murakami's number immediately. This is the greatest interview of all time.

there are times I'm not surprised a player thinks something, I'm just surprised the player expressed certain thoughts publicly. In the case of Vlad Jr today, I can't even believe a player would think that

Matt Snyder @mattsnydercbs.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

yeah that's at least defensible. It's gotten to a point with me where any word starting with sc wants to go to Schwarber and I'm totally fine with that

I remain unbelievably confused that my phone always wants to change "that's" to "Thad's." Is there an important Apple person named Thad or something?

Hey, if we're discussing the evolution of the lineup -- particularly involving leadoff men -- I wrote a whole book!!

5 multi-HR games since 8/5. Absurd.

can we bring back the real meaning of the word "fact?" Getting tired of seeing people spout a bunch of opinions and then saying "facts" afterward. Words have meanings.

I've never been this happy after the Bears gave up almost 40 points. It's a new world!

the year is 2035, the Brewers have won the NL Central for the 13th straight year. They continue to own the Cubs. And a large portion of their fan base is still obsessed with needing a salary cap.

Small-market team that hasn’t won a pennant in 28 years: $3.9B Team that hasn’t won a playoff game since Blackberries were a thing: Even more than $3.9B Tell me more about how the people who own baseball teams need to start a labor war and risk a season to keep themselves clothed and fed.

Before May of this season, Pete Crow-Armstrong had never had more than 8 walks in a month in the majors. He has at least 12 in four straight months now.

Can Pete Crow-Armstrong join this list in his next game? Only 4 MLB players have had 3 straight multi-HR games: 2003 Jeff DaVanon 1969 Lee May 1962 Frank Thomas 1951 Gus Zernial

the Mariners have looked incompetent most of the season and are now seven games under .500. They are four games out of first place.
