Hi Dan Cleary, didn’t know you were on Deadspin!

The Devil’s Nonagon.

Or do what my brother did for his: don’t have a registry. Pretty much everyone in my family gave him cash, and while he got some gifts of value (of note was a skydiving trip), chances are he got to recoup some costs and get some things he’ll actually use out of it.

Getting out of Abdelkader’s contract is going to be a bigger challenge than playing on one leg throughout the 2002 playoffs, however.

I knew it was quite likely to be the case, considering that there were reports that Hank wasn’t all that healthy last year, but still... say it ain’t so.

Debarred.

Their line-up reminds me of the 2015 Blue Jays right now. Full of power; Jed Lowrie, Khris Davis and Matt Olson are a quiet murderer’s row, with guys like Piscotty and Semien providing timely hitting here and there. Furthermore, their bullpen is a bit bonkers. Even before Familia got on board, Trivino and Treinen made

Yeah, I’ll give you that. And it makes me wonder if there is a right choice in a 16 inning game, to be honest. 

I agree that not every game is worth going all-in for, but I agree with Kepler when he says that, after fighting back to tie this one, this game may have been worth fighting for. At the very least, it does make him look better in the clubhouse (because honestly, momentum and motivation are voodoo in sports).

I’m less worried about Bird’s rough patches at the plate as I am worried about his inability to be healthy.

Had to look this up, and... yeah, that’s ugly. And Sanchez isn’t as good defensively as Piazza, which isn’t a high bar to begin with. Oof.

You are likely right. I was wondering if he could pick it up while he was still young.

I gotta think he gets kicked to first base sooner than later. Yes, he’s better than most at picking off baserunners, but with less baserunners stealing to begin with, how useful is that compared to framing/catching the ball to begin with?

What are you reading this weekend?

The closest thing to metaphysical nothing is absolutely terrifying, despite Bart’s qualms. Mostly because that nothingness will mean you will quickly go through many changes that terrify you, such as slowly having your blood boil, and suffocating slowly and painfully.

If that were true, Doug Ford is the Premier of Ontario, and he’s already railing against asylum seekers after a month in office. Kawhi would be happy with that (until we eventually fall into an unaffordable, backwater hellscape).

There’s more sources implying that Monika is guilty.

Rob Deer ratio going right now.

I was thinking a grizzly bear, but I honestly think he rides one like a horse in the off-season.
