ReplyDeleteLots of hits off of Stroman, but he came out ahead.
All I want is more Lindor.
I hear Jeff McNeil is saving almost all of his 250 hits for the regular season.
Nimmo's pretty good too, it seems.
8 more days.

ReplyDeleteThat NFT stuff is something interesting, and I’d like to just learn more about it. Good piece John.
I’m looking at all the articles everyday and just shake my head: WHERE DO YOU GUYS FIND THE ENERGY TO KEEP CRANKING THEM OUT? Incredible dedication.
