I tuned in for a Blue Jays game but apparently it's just a rerun of Angels in the Outfield

We've missed your baseball writing around these parts...hope the new gig is going well!

Apple TV announcers are SO BAD

The Blue Jays broadcast talked more today about loonie dogs than Jackie Robinson.

People rag on Buck but this is one of those days where his time in the league has lent to poignant personal stories about the impact Robinson had on the game.

This has been disappointing.

MLB FANS: Our current moment would be the perfect time for MLB to honor the legacy of Jackie Robinson by highlighting his steadfast bravery in the face of institutional racism and follow his example by taking a strong and public moral stance against bigotry and racial violence

MLB:

The performative bullshit that MLB and baseball media does every year for Jackie Robinson Day has never rung more hollow. A bunch of tweets all asking players of colour "what he means to them" and not holding white players accountable for the task of maintaining the space Jackie fought for.

Highly recommend going to check this out, there are lots of good questions and Keegan's giving really thoughtful and insightful responses. It's a great read.

Jays reddit used to be a TON of fun, but over the past year it's just been overrun by some of the most cantankerous and confrontational doomers that have just sucked the life out of that place

I really hope that y'all out there find a love that's as strong as Ken Rosenthal's open disdain for the Blue Jays

Okay...I'm finally going to try to switch over to this place and see if I can make it work for me...

Anyone have a "Blue Jays Twitter" starter pack to share that I can use as a resource to get started?

I had the BIGGEST crush on Val Kilmer man...from Top Secret to Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, he could do no wrong for me.

I'm so sad.

One of my favourite movies ever.

I'm really sad - he was one of my favourite actors, one of the definitive faces of my teenage/early adult years.

You guys know you don't ALWAYS have to bring up the Blue Jays though, right

Half the posts on Jays reddit now are people who seemingly got lost on their way to Livejournal

I'm looking forward to reading it! And it's so well drawn!

My rook is an older female so my head canon is different but I loooove the idea of them discussing this after Harding's comments.

Frankly the best outcome for me for Soto not being on our team is not being in our division....he's the NL's problem now LOL
