60 wins 👍🏾
Finishing 1st in the East 👍🏾
Winning a playoff series 👍🏾
Going to 7 games in the second round 👍🏾
#Pistons have a lot to be proud of but losing like that to close the postseason is def gonna leave a bad taste. Cannot play as flat as they did in a game like that
"Well, Michael, good evening to you and everyone listening to Yankees baseball. Here we go. First pitch time, 8:31. And Jeter swings... It's a high drive to left! It is high! It is far! It is gone!"

Ever wonder why Judge just can’t stay healthy?
Try swinging a 32oz bat, 75mph, at +90s heaters without decelerating the barrel around the body.
Judges success is unquestioned. But just cause you can doesn’t mean you should. This patterning puts an extreme amounts of pressure on spine to decelerate the bat speed post impact. Once spine has had enough it outsources to “save” the spine.
This makes him rely on quads, hamstrings, biceps, wrists, and obliques too often to get through the swing. Take a look at his injury history. Those aren’t “baseball” injuries for a SUPREMELY talented human. They are normal human injuries which speaks to the amount of pressure the swing places on the supporting muscle groups to sustain him throughout a season.
Potentially why he hasn’t had much success in postseason. Body is hanging on rather than peaking. 🤷🏻♂️
Curious what you think I’ve done to “blackball myself” and what “stories” you’ve heard. As I’m sure you know by this point in life, there are always 2 sides of any story, and it seems odd that you’d choose to believe and repeat one side without ever speaking a word to me or hearing from me directly or being a teammate of mine to see how I actually interact with my teammates. All I do is try to win baseball games and help as many teammates as possible with whatever they’re going through. And no team has ever expressed any worries about my “clubhouse presence” in any conversations. In fact, they’ve all explicitly stated that they’ve done their research, spoken to former teammates and coaches and staff, and have absolutely no concerns about all of that bullshit. So, again, I’d be very curious to hear what you’re relying on to form these opinions of someone you’ve never spent any time around. Happy to discuss in any forum you’d like
