    Really, everybody associated with the scandal has a job in MLB but Luhnow.

    What does that have to do with the people here?

    You claimed people here liked Hinch more than Luhnow.

    You think Managers are just now coddling players?

    I’m sure this post is tongue in cheek but TikTok is predominately Gen Z and Gen X and not really used by Millennials. A millennial manager is probably posting his lineup on Twitter while getting slammed from every economic angle feasible.

    Noted; I knew I should have looked it up on the Google or, better yet, my handy Encyclopedia Britannica before firing up the old dial-up modem to post it here :D

    How does it skip a Gen.

    That does not seem right there is awful lot of mid 20's teens on Tic Toc.

    I know all of my students are on there.

    Bummer, was looking forward to Ohtani vs Oakland tonight since there's no Stros game.

    Why would the "not enough time" excuse work for him but not for whomever is unexpectedly starting in his place tonight?

    He has a pretty extensive pre-start routine. Can't remember all the details.

    Apparently Oakland isn’t good enough for teams to stay there... have to stay in SF.

    Plenty of concerns as to the city’s viability when it comes to retaining pro sports teams.
