That's why Kike Hernandez went back to using "Enrique"

Saw some headline about Bo Bichette. I put his name into Google and the first autofill suggestion was "bo bichette mom". Not a ton of pictures with her, but none of them disappointing.

Make less shitty uniforms?

I used to be with 'it', but then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm with isn't 'it' anymore and what's 'it' seems weird and scary. It'll happen to you!

Some people will hate anything no matter. I guess this years aren't hideous as I originally said but they are just bland.

Yeah I don’t think they can allow that, sorry José.

Pop quiz hotshots... How many caught stealings does it take to be tied for the NL lead?

Since JP Crawford made his miraculous play he's hit .167 and the Mariners have gone 2-5

6! That is impressively low. We might have a league leader in single digits. Not sure if that's ever happened, but it seems unlikely.

Edit: https://www.baseball-reference.com/lead ... gues.shtml

It's never happened in the NL. The league leader in the AL had 9 in 1956 and 1950.
