My mother-in-law passed away and dedicated her whole life to being a nurse as a single mother of 3. When the #cancer came it came hard and fast! No Will was made and family is trying to save the house! #rip Mom2 ๐ข

Mario Lemieux on Jagr: "Our chemistry was unbelievable ๐ฎ
Certainly one of the best I've ever played with" ๐ซก
"It looks like the Pittsburgh Penguins have two Michael Jordan's" ๐ณ
Got to see them play in Phoenix when I was a youngin! My unc took me. We had our pens jerseys on and happened to sit next to 2 baddies with pens jerseys also! Was good time. We saw Mario score passing all 5 coyotes alone. Even yokes fans were cheering and gave standing ovation.
One of the greatest tragedies in sports history was being robbed of the full greatness of Mario Lemieux and Jaromir Jagr โผ๏ธ together. They were absolutely dominant, a once-in-a-lifetime pair whose potential was repeatedly derailed by Mario's health battles. As incredible as they were, we never got to see just how great they could have been โจ

Dude was a stud for us since we sent him down.. It fired him up big time when we desperately needed wins.. I wish Zac cou
couldd have gotten the same treatment.. 2023 zac and merrill with 2026 pfaadt and a 100% corbin burnes and we are taking the devision with potentially 100W
#Dbacks Season Summary: Brandon Pfaadt
3.77 ERA | 3.90 xERA | 3.89 FIP
16.7% K% | 5.7% BB%
I'd argue this was Pfaadt's breakout season. While the start of the season was rough, Pfaadt changed himself into a pitch-to-contact guy, generating tons of weak contact!
Example A: Jagr draws in three defenders with pure wizardry before slipping a pass through an area most players wouldn't even dream existed ๐ญ
Enter the streaking big man, who claps one past Hasek and rings it off the post so hard and loud it woke up one of those aliens from another solar system that David Grusch was talking about ๐จ
I would love to see the #Dbacks get Bryce Harper for the right pieces + cash!
.269 AVG | .380 OBP | .485 SLG | .865 OPS
15.4% BB% | 21.4% K%
.375 wOBA | 135 wRC+
A future Hall of Famer, Harper could provide Arizona with exceptional offense at 1B/DH!
