Fuckin' Sando. Gee, maybe they'd score 59 points against a team like Carolina? www.nytimes.com/athletic/766...

Last Bears' great QB to wear 11 was Jack Concannon. Seen here trying to get a ball boy to head down to White Hen and get him two cartons of Camel straights.

I’ve never seen a double c flap helmet before. They should let him wear it if he plays third again this year.

Because the Padres are the only west coast team hosting a Wild Card series, I knew the start times would suck, but I didn’t expect this.

Boog says this graphic shows “the Brewers and Cubs are two of the best baserunning teams in the majors.” But this list is only the NL. Shows the Brewers are nearly twice as good as the Cubs, that the Cubs are middle of the pack and closer to the bottom (0) than the top (11).

Well, the Cubs hired the true genius behind Cleveland’s pitching strategy, and the results should be evident any decade now.

Went to bet on my pal Jacob Webb and look at the super fun parlay Draft Kings suggested.

Only took @watchmarquee.bsky.social nearly six full seasons but they finally fixed their awful score bug so that the pitch MPH no longer covers the count, it replaces the number of pitches the pitcher has thrown.

The Cubs should absolutely claim Eugenio and make him the primary DH against lefties and pick spots against righties he’s hit well against. Will they? Of course not. Three million bucks should be nothing for a big market team. But it is for this one for no good reason.
