@Jim22Palmer @Super70sSports Imagine winning 20 four years in a row TWICE. Oh, right, you don’t have to.

@JasonLawhead This season will be chronicled in “30 for 30: Ringworm”

@KeithOlbermann Would an IL stint be required afterward so it wasn’t exploited? I see a loophole in this. I see Gary Sanchez getting replaced defensively late with “shoulder tightness” a lot.

@schaaptop That's one of baseball's top 5 rivalries!

@Super70sSports “You’re gonna strip it!” - all dads, everywhere.

@TorontoStar In mental health circles, I believe this is called ‘ruminating’.

@DShulman_ESPN To be fair, most of your “jinxes” have been positive. Vladdy before his first HR, ditto Gurriel. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Tim Tremain @timtremain]

@JasonLawhead So good. I like that the further back you go, you get the feeling the play by play guys didn’t pre-script and practice their calls. Or maybe I’m just tired of Joe Buck.

@JasonLawhead Dansby be like, I can’t catch it, but I can sure get in the outfielder’s way

@JasonLawhead You just know the Cardinals are going to beat whoever ends up 2nd in that division. The Cards who won a WS while barely finishing with a .500 record. And that ride in 2011. They’re the horseshoe franchise. The direct opposite of a certain snakebitten Ohio baseball team.

@schaaptop With that last name, he should wear the number 6, 12, 24 or, to be really obscure, 70 to represent the Wade Boggs challenge.

@schaaptop Don’t dislike the saturation. Do dislike the never critical nature of the coverage of the Jays because of said conglomerate. Every player is a pillar of the community, every manager, coach, GM, infallible. It’s the reason it’s difficult to watch the pregame or postgame.

@JasonLawhead When he threw the ball over the center field wall in KC, Tito was pissed off, but didn’t seem surprised, which was telling. Then MLB did their best to make him a fun “personality” of the game, like he’s Fidrych.

@DShulman_ESPN Souvenirs for everybody!

@UrbanHealthProf First honorary doctorate: Moe Berg!

[Tim Tremain @timtremain]

@UrbanHealthProf @AlexUsherHESA Something that includes the words Toronto, Polytechnic, and somehow spells TPOH

@DShulman_ESPN Jays have more home runs than TB have hits, so naturally they’re trailing by a couple runs. 🤔

@JasonLawhead Ricky was, in a way, the most dangerous player who ever played. His single MVP award shows the lack of imagination, and obsession with trad’l stats, of voters in that era. If his career started 20 years later, he’d have multiple MVP awards (if his mgr let him steal bases).

[Tim Tremain @timtremain]

@JasonLawhead Was Ripken disliked inside baseball? Never occurred to me until Greg Zaun (himself a real piece of work) claimed Ripken was a bit over zealous in his hazing (and then weirdly said he was cool with it). Made we wonder if Ripken was less beloved by his peers than he was by fans.

@schaaptop PEDROIA THE DESTROIA!
