ONeil Cruz should wear the welders helmet out there

@Jason_Shetler Cruz. At 1:15 and 12 seconds.

The first #Pirates home run of 2026 will be hit by ________________

@jpbucco @ImDiabetus @AlexJStumpf Let’s Go Bucs, my man! Can’t wait!!!

@jpbucco @ImDiabetus @AlexJStumpf 😂😂😂 classic!

Konnor Griffin will be a great player one day, but when you consider that he slugged under .100 against fastballs this spring and these were his fastball whiffs… I can see why he didn’t make the Opening Day team. I talked about it for today’s OffBeat: northshorenine.com/the-pirates-hi…

@jpbucco @AlexJStumpf Ok, Smizik. Calm down. I’m rooting for the Bucs

@Brookline50 @AlexJStumpf You are wrong on like nine levels here. First of all, they will play together this year. Second of all, it will be a lockout, not a strike Third of all, they aren’t trading Skenes until they have to

@AlexJStumpf And jus to clarify, I hate it because it makes so much sense

@AlexJStumpf I hate that you have this stat. My only concern is that he and Skenes will never play together. After the strike the Pirates will deal Skenes for prospects and draft picks.

@JMackey_PGH @npc210 They have to work Skenes as the home opener starter

Pirates' rotation first time through: Thursday: Skenes Saturday: Keller Sunday: Mlodzinski Monday: Ashcraft Tuesday: Chandler Assuming no changes, would be mean Skenes Wednesday in Cincy and Mitch for the home-opener.

@CM81995 @LawKelly38 Yea. Thats not gonna happen. Just trying to come up with a feasible solution.

@Brookline50 @LawKelly38 That’s still not fair to the public school teams in 4A and up. In NY, the largest class girls featured 2 privates in championship game and they still blew teams out on their way. Kick them out

I’ll say it again and again. We need a separate bracket for the non-boundary schools.

They really are this dumb👇🏻

@takeoverhoops_ Wow. Thats bad

NO FOUL?? 🧐What are the thoughts around the #WPIAL about this?? 🤔🤔

@jmcammisa Skenes beat the best offensive lineup in the world. It’s not close. Skenes > Nola

Aaron Nola in WBC: 9.0 IP, 8 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 8 K Paul Skenes in WBC: 8.1 IP, 7 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 9 K But Skenes is generational?

Dominican Players doing their fun celebrations after being eliminated by the boring Americans…

@darls0l @iJordanMoore Don’t forget to bring that L home with you

At least we can go back home and say we played cleanly every game, we had fun in every game, every game was a party unlike the other team that has to move brackets, make team changes and pay umpires to get to the finals and feel like “proud americans over that bs” 😂 🤡 Team DR only team with a 8-0 championship 🐐🇩🇴

Who has the best Fish Fry in the area?

@CoachKurzawski Great season, Coach

Couldn’t be prouder of our kids. True high school athletes - many playing 4 varsity sports. None came here for a basketball scholarship. None were recruited. Just high-academic Catholic students here for faith, friendships, and formation. This is what high school sports should be about.

@jpope2243 @jthomps72 I like turtles

@jthomps72 Tomatoes make sauce. Gravy is brown. Not one person in Italy calls it “Sunday gravy”. That shit was made up by some guido poser from New Jersey. Oh, and it’s “Nonna”.

Is there a single player on the Italian baseball team that was born in Italy or are they all just Italian American dudes who have Nona’s that cook a Sunday gravy for them?

@GOTDAYUMMM1 @SECNetwork @SportsCenter Nah. It’s now called a double gather, slide step, shuffle move. Very effective

@SECNetwork @SportsCenter If that ain’t traveling, I must’ve forgot what the rule was.

Got two defenders with the fake 🔥

@JJWatt Well, if I’m worth 100+ million, I tip everybody. The cooks, the valet, the guy walking across the street. Come on man, maybe get a sub next whistle

Genuine question on a restaurant situation: You walk up to a counter to order. You find your own table and seat yourself. If you order coffee, they hand you a cup and you go fill it up yourself. If you order food, they hand you a buzzer and when it goes off, you go pick it up yourself. The iPad has a “20%, 25%, 30%, Other” tip option, with 20% already preselected. What’s your move?
