I will be running the 2025 @ChiMarathon to raise money for @CrohnsColitisFn! I'm doing this to support my sister in law and others in the fight against Crohn's and colitis. Donate here, if you see fit: …challenge.crohnscolitisfoundation.org/index.cfm?fuse…
My wife could've married a doctor or a lawyer or really anyone in Chicago, but she chose to marry a guy who collects minor league baseball jerseys (and also does the dishes, laundry, and other stuff around the house).
Some personal news: I am now the proud owner of one of the Beer Bellies jerseys. I look forward to putting beer in my belly while wearing a Beer Bellies jersey.
what's one more? 🍺🐷 brewing up @ 1:05pm. get your tix & use code BELLY at checkout → tinyurl.com/LSC25SGT
Please baby Jesus let this thunderstorm wash away the awful humidity of this July.
Bryce Harper, I was unfamiliar with that aspect of your game. Respect.
One if those mornings where it’s so hot and humid out that you start sweating the moment you step outside
It is hard to overstate how bad and, frankly, irrelevant the Brewers were from roughly 1993-2007, and I say that as someone who worked there from ‘03-‘06. The trade for CC Sabathia in 2008 completely changed baseball in Milwaukee in ways that reverberate today.
The Brewers should absolutely retire his number. I don’t care that he played less than a full season in Milwaukee. Unquestionably one of the most important players in Brewers franchise history, and arguably one of the top five most important in season acquisitions, ever.
MILWAUKEE!!!!!
No Seth Lugo…Bring me one Charlie Morton and one McKenzie Gore, please.
Remember when Gage Workman was ahead of Matt Shaw on the depth chart? Like…how
There’s still time to bid on Craig Counsell’s son Jack’s Beer Bellies jersey. @LS_Chinooks 32auctions.com/organizations/…
I hope Ben Brown throws like seven shutout innings just to shut everyone, including me, up
Wishing the fine folks at @piecechicago a very happy 24th anniversary! Billy and his team have created one of Chicago’s most iconic pizza joints and have sustained success by continuing to produce some of the best pies this city has to offer. Here’s to 24 more!
If you can get McKenzie Gore, you trade your top prospects.
If this is true, do whatever it takes.
The Cubs are very interested in MacKenzie Gore, per @PJ_Mooney & @sahadevsharma. “A blockbuster deal with the Washington Nationals would set the Cubs up for the playoffs and eliminate an offseason need. The cost to acquire Gore, however, is currently viewed as sky-high.” Full…
I do not need to know who the most famous person to view my profile is, largely because Jane Lynch quote tweeted a picture of me drinking a beer bat at Wrigley and that’s more than good enough for me.
The true and timeless Cubs experience.
