If anybody ever follows anybody on twitter, this guy truly seems great.

If you are allergic to clicking, it's a relief pitcher on the Mets who has posts like:

I’m living in the city for the first time and I need your help! I don’t know where to park. Please respond yes or no to each photo I post. If I get a ticket, we are in this together…. Can I park here?

Guardian's logo is sorta cool; should put that on their caps now instead of the block C.

I agree. I think that logo has a lot of promise, particularly if they tends towards less is more.

Also, I hadn't noticed this before:

Just for Kep...

This pitcher was going for his second consecutive perfect game, but got pulled after 8 innings to "protect his arm."

https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/18/sport...ntl/index.html

But so far, he has 17 consecutive perfect innings, retiring 52 batters in a row. Oh, he also struck out 13 batters in a row during that stretch. He had 19 K's in the perfect game.

He's 20.

SAC is going to pay his team $1B just to talk to him.

Pulled him at 102 pitches.

We've come a long way from Dice K's insane high school tournament story.

Across five days he threw a 148 pitch complete game shutout and followed it up the next day with a 250 pitch complete game in 17 innings. In the semis he came in and got the save with 15 pitches, and then in the finals threw a no-hitter.
 
Quiz time: Name three pitchers who won World Series MVP awards in the 1980s, then went on to pitch for the Mets in the 1990s. Hint: Two had late-career stints with the Red Sox.
I got one.
 
I feel shame not getting Orel. He's one of our most hated adversaries because of 1988. Even though he was only with us for a year he actually worked longer for the org as a broadcaster, which was kind of like Bucky Dent broadcasting for the Red Sox.
