We looked up anything we could find in StatCast & got a null result
Cannot believe he got around that thing like that.

The sweet spot is when itβs heated blanket season along with a weighted blanket. Iβm a sicko who likes the windows a bit open as long as possible & my best sleeping is done in the winter months.
