    Paredes is done for the year outside of maybe pinch hitting in the Postseason. Not sure why yall have some sort of @DaDakota DH hopes for him

    Oh, if he is done, that changes a lot.....but it cleans up the defense......

    We just need to get Meyers back then, and integrated..........and Carantini.

    That was huge and by far the biggest takeaway from this series.

    What? If he’s capable of pinch hitting, he’s going to be the DH. It’s going to be all or nothing. Most likely nothing.

    I don't know that I've ever actually heard a k-pop song, and I plan on keeping it that way

    If you don’t have kids that age, it would be creepy.

    seriously, that movie is constantly playing at my house. It’s pretty cringe.

    Still can't bet that we score more than 2 runs. They just need to get their heads out of their asses.

    Yep. It’s mental now. The hitters only really struggle when guys are in scoring position.

    Me and some others hang out and grill/bbq at this one guy's place on the weekend every once in a while (cards/dominoes/sports/etc), I'll never forget the first time I met his kids (daughter was about 9, boy was about 5). Boy walks over and introduces himself, we shake hands, and then in a kinda hushed voice he says "This is daddy's time, so if you want to listen to a song you have to ask him first". His wife heard the exchange and starts cracking up, all I could think to say was "yall have this kid properly trained"

    I have no idea how my parents put up with my brother and I. Just a walking, talking, constant chaos factory.
