One of my boys met Konnor before today’s game. Really nice dude. Let’s hope it stays that way. Underneath that black is the biggest smile I’ve ever seen on the kid.

My brother's name is Conor. Obviously since this buy appeared on the scene I've started to spell it Konnor. Drives him fucking nuts. LOL

1st big league hit for Emerson is a 3 run shot.

1-0 nail biter of a win against the Doyers. Miller looked like he completely lost his release point but was able to find it just in the nick of time.

The Mariners cannot get out of their own way and continue to find even worse ways to lose.

Yet we’re still only two games out of first place. The AL West is so bad.

The AL West is so bad.

"How bad is it?"

"It's so bad the A's are in first place!"

So ABS is being used in the SEC tournament. Curious to see how long it takes to be implemented in all of college baseball because college umpires are notoriously terrible.

Well… it’s May 20th and I’ve given up on the Astros.

Curious who they’ll unload at the deadline.

Haven’t done a dive into contracts yet, but Yordan would probably get you the best haul (although didn’t he just re-sign?). Astros farm system is hot garbage. I would be hesitant to give up Hunter Brown. Altuve isn’t going anywhere… but I’d let anyone else on this team go for a sandwich and a few unwrapped candies from your grandma’s purse.

Yordan signed a $115 million extension in 2023 that’s good through 2028.

Altuve just turned 36, I wonder if he’s got enough gas left in the tank to get to 3000 hits. He’s currently at 2,428 so that’s what, another four years at his current pace?

Took you long enough. We're gonna lose 100 games!
