@notgaetti Rumor is Eddie Gaedel is breaking camp with the Yankees. Analytics Dept. loves him.

@shegone03 Pipe down #oldhead I’m enjoying my best expected outcome year of my career. Hitting .397 with 36 bombs 92 rbi all from the comfort of my recliner. My War+sit on my a.. #’s are off the charts. My wife has no chance in my new recliner arbitration case.

@notgaetti The “the builder of great throwers” haymakers aren’t landing. Kid hits 92 and he says “we”. Time for a craft beer and a nap. #oldhead

@notgaetti Hat Trick!! Congrats to Future Mrs. Not Gaetti!!

@shegone03 @MLB The word humility needs to make a comeback. I’m in the fight everyday, “let them have fun” is not restricted to playing fields. Some of the best teachers I know are no longer teaching. I’m in it for the long haul with you brother. 👊

@shegone03 @FoxNews @MLBNetwork @MLB @AMBS_Kernan @notgaetti @BobFile @billdubs @Rangers Not surprising to anyone who knows you brother. Haters gonna hate, screw ‘em.

[Ken Merklen @KMerklen]

@shegone03 @Yankees @AMBS_Kernan I’m surprised they’re allowed to used bats.

@shegone03 @Yankees @AMBS_Kernan @notgaetti @BobFile @twuench @billdubs @SliderDominate @GarysheffieldJr @DMEASrecruiting @ToddPratt07 @WillClark22 It’s a damn train wreck and has been for too long. It’s not rocket science, well, it used to not be. If you can’t put the ball in play consistently, you can’t win. They do have an outstanding barrel rate though. 😡🤬

@shegone03 @AMBS_Kernan @notgaetti @BobFile @twuench @billdubs @MLB @FoxNews A copy of my lessons for my kiddos. This is what kids should be learning from youth athletics. When they develop life skills they are prepared to do things on their own that will help them become successful adults. The “let them have fun” argument is so tired.

@shegone03 @WillClark22 @Gregg_Jefferies @ChickenMan3010 @RodCarew_29 @TheRealJHair @KevinMench28 @jreb36 Are you telling me you went you went to the plate without looking at your laptop, phone and iPad to come up with a “swing solution”? Your time has passed old man🤪

[Ken Merklen @KMerklen]

@shegone03 You don’t wish your career ended at Carl Albert? You’re kidding me.

[Ken Merklen @KMerklen]

@shegone03 Been in education for 30 years, being old is not the problem. There’s been a change in how kids handle failure as well and it’s not a good trend. In general let them have fun is no fun when they can’t handle failing. That’s where the issue is. Transfer portal generation.
