Pain, struggle, and triumph. Three words I’ve turned to during this crazy journey. To everyone who’s helped me along the way, y’all were why I never gave up even when I wanted to. Even though we’re close to 100 lbs lost, there’s still plenty of work to be done yet. keep goin’

In honor of a very successful Opening Weekend at PNC Park, we're giving away this team-autographed poster. RT for your chance to win! 🏴‍☠️

During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office. Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known. He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions. Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?" I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well." The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year. Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there. But at game time, the tires were flat. I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands. Now it was time to reset. "Shower well" means exactly this: • Watch the frustration circle down the drain • Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind • Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight. Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization. I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball. Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home. You can carry all of that through your front door. Or you can shower well. I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them. The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up. Either we win. Or we learn. The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day. So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well. Tomorrow is a new at-bat. What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

@TheDegenWeekly Good thing you can make up for it with a little bit of Turbo Man in your life

I just watched the worst Christmas movie I have ever seen in my life. It’s called The Family Stone. I’m shocked it was so bad bc the cast was loaded. Luke Wilson, Claire Diane’s, Diane Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Sarah Jessica Parker. Fucking terrible. 0/10 do not recommend.

@TheDegenWeekly Do you remember what preceded this? Give me Rodgers in that

These are awful. I'm betting the Packers

@KevinAdams26 489 Passing yards 52 points

I’ve decided on a way to make it fair to everybody. Tomorrow Jags V Chiefs MNF. Whoever is the closest to the total combined passing yards of BOTH starting QBs, including total number of points scored, wins $1000. RP and Comment your guess below! Good luck!

@ItsLukeMeans A hundred nuggets is 5 trips to McDonald’s

@BrandonAshurst1 Yeah absolutely hammer the over here

This isn’t even close, one time after a junior high basketball game I ate 100 like Man vs. Food with my teammates cheering on at a McDonald’s. Set the line at 4,999.5

@bridge2buctober Remember when they brought Davis up to play right field because they didn’t think he was capable of catching? This data is funny to see now and shows how much they truly know because I know they didn’t develop him besides having Austin Hedges hang around with him for a little

I mean... #Davis #Bart #letsgobucs (Check the replies for more)

@TheDegenWeekly Does he happen to be in this picture?

I have a Home Run Derby POD. Want it now or after lunch?

@SteeloCity I’d love to hear your opinion on #DonnyBall caring more about a meaningless all-star game than the game at hand….i feel like Frank the Tank crashing out right now

@Pirates imagine if Big Ben was 18/20 For 250 yards at halftime what Steelers fans would say….or Sid didn’t play the third period…and you wonder why everyone jokes about us? Don Kelly needs sent to Nuremberg for doing this twice

@Pirates I truly feel bad for the poor intern that has to run their account, how do you justify this? We care more about a meaningless all star game than the game at hand? I’m glad Skenes gets to pitch, but enjoy him in a different uni I. The next two year because of incompetence

@Pirates I’m so glad we had a great swan song of a home stand and now we’re back to our old selves, how does a major league team operate without the capability of scoring more than 3 runs in any game? What a joke….

@Pirates It’d be cool if he could pitch more than 75 pitches the last two starts, this is the equivalent of taking Big Ben out after halftime because he’s playing in the Pro Bowl, TALK ABOUT A JOKE

Paul Skenes has reached 300 career strikeouts in only his 43rd career start. He is the first Pirates pitcher and one of only 17 Major League pitchers all-time to record at least 300 strikeouts in his first 43 big-league starts.

@ItsBucnPrinny @Pirates I’m so sure Bob Nutting has control over when he comes out, whole organization from the top down is a JOKE

I’m glad Don Kelly cares more about more about the all star game than the game at hand…taking your horse out at 75 pitches….@Pirates you wonder why this organization can’t win when things like this continue to happen…

“Sun goin’ shine, wind’s goin’ blow, and Big Dave’s going 4 for 4” Rest easy Cobra 🐍❤️

@NjTank99 @WxMets It’s going to be a little bit Frank. radar looks bad in Pittsburgh currently and even if they restart at 6, it’s still going to be raining

How long will this delay be @WxMets Should I go for a second walk or something
