Great post, and this is part is absolutely spot on!
“There is a difference between defending the person and defending the mistake.
Texas Tech is in an impossible spot. Deep down, they may have hoped the final ruling would remove the decision from their hands. Exhaust every option, support the player, let the process play out, and if he is ruled ineligible, accept it. That is the cleanest outcome for a program trying to balance loyalty, discipline, public pressure, and competitive integrity.”
THE FIRST MAJOR LEAGUE NO-HITTER SINCE 2024 BELONGS TO THE HOUSTON ASTROS!
Tatsuya Imai, Steven Okert, and Alimber Santa have thrown the 18th no-hitter in Astros history!
@DanCevette I’ve played, coached, and worked with high school baseball. It’s sad to see where the game is at. I don’t mind a bat flip in a big moment or getting fired up for a K or web gem, but they’ve lost their meaning because kids just want to get clips to post on Snapchat. Hard to watch.
HS Baseball Players ⚾️
I’ve been around this game a long time, and something’s changed...
We’re losing respect for the game.
• Chirping after every pitch.
• Celebrating routine plays like it’s Game 7
• Trying to embarrass opponents instead of beating them.
That’s not toughness. That’s insecurity. 💯
Somewhere along the way, being loud became more important than being good.
And the worst part? It’s being allowed.
When I came up…
• You showed up early.
• You handled your business.
• You played hard.
• You shut your mouth.
• If you had something to say…
you said it with performance.
• And if lines were ever crossed, the players took care of it.
The truth: 👇
• Baseball is hard.
• You’re going to fail.
• You’re going to struggle.
• The game doesn’t need more noise…
• It needs more respect.
• Nobody remembers who chirped.
• They remember who showed up.
• Who competed.
• Who handled adversity.
• Who left the game better than they found it.
Want to separate yourself?
Stop talking. Start working.
Respect the game.

@FoolishBB every offseason on MLB’s socials it’s like “Goose Gonsalvez who hit 29 pumps in 2 months last year is gonna sneak up on you and maybe hit 30 homers this year” and then Jonathan Aranda makes the All-Star team and confuses everyone outside St. Petersburg
Lemme correct this one for you
Collins A+
Higgins B+
LINE PLAY: F-
CJ Stroud could do no wrong the past few years and he’s taken so many shots that some of y’all genuinely believe he’s an issue now. The weapons aren’t elite, but they’ll do. We needed a line. Bad.
Great job GM.
Tatsuya Imai when asked about playing for the Dodgers:
“I want to beat them… beating a team like that and becoming world champions would be the most valuable thing in my life.”
Imai also prefers not to sign with a team that already has Japanese players (via @NekoSuke5_5_2)
@PAPAxC4 Defense played fine and special teams got way better, just hard to score when your franchise QB has zero help. Drops, that fumble there at the end, and holy moly it seemed like he was pressured every play. Lot of thoughts on this game but overall the offense has to be better.
