Connoisseur of nothing. I just like things. But also I don't?



Never Forget...when skate parks were filled with sand to make them unusable during COVID mandated lockdowns. Never forget how they treated us, locked us down & ruined outdoor parks to keep us inside.





@mark_slapinski Reported him for terrorism and violent extremism.





















Folks, let me tell you the appeal of Luis Arraez: In a dystopian baseball hellscape that's overrun by ghost runners and .230 hitters that take their daddy hacks on any pitch in any count and are content to whiff 200 times a year, Arraez is a throwback to the days of Gwynn and Carew, professional hitters that could stick the bat out and hit a bloop double to the opposite field simply because they felt like it. He can foul off any pitch he wants to and he can hit a line drive up the middle at will. He's an elite contact hitter in an era where that's no longer the cool thing to be. Is he a complete player like Willie Mays? No, stop it, nobody is saying that. Nobody has ever said that. But he's great in that baseball-kind-of-way where different guys are good at different things, and I've always loved watching players with unique strengths. Putting the bat on the ball is one of the hardest things to do it in all of sports, and Arraez does it better than anyone in today's game. His swing has a compactness and simplicity to it that's refreshing. He doesn't try to do too much, and that allows him to be successful in any count. You might recall that Tony Gwynn was a pretty great hitter with two strikes, too. Arraez isn't going to win a home run derby, a gold glove, or a foot race. But when he gets in the box, you can't help but feel like he's the one deciding whether he gets a hit today. And that's honestly pretty cool.
