From The Washington Post... https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2024/04/25/oldest-living-major-leaguer-schallock/c15979a6-02ea-11ef-8eac-39c6dcb59eb5_story.html

Highlight reels are fundamentally no different today than newsreels from the 1930's. They're entertainment products based in reality but not enslaved to it.
-
I would trust it then. Kid's fast.

OMG we've missed peak trade value!! There might still be a few people around here who still think this way.

Was this from the replay of the whole game or from highlights? I can't tell if that's the case here, but it's possible that the highlights were edited to compress the actual time. FWIW Statcast has Gunnar at #32 for sprint speed and #21 for running splits overall, so whatever the actual time of the triple, he's one of the fastest players in the ML.

Westburg and Tatis are the geezers of the top group at age 25.

Wait, since when is money no object? It remains to be seen what the budget constraints are going to be with the new ownership, but if Santander is projected to put up 3.0 WAR for $20 million and his replacement (Kjerstad/Cowser/Stowers...) can put up 2.5 WAR for less than a million then that will be factored in. The goal will never be about being better than the other 29 teams in a payroll vacuum.

Okay, Kevin and Palmer are definitely getting some side cash from the cookie and probiotic people. -
Good, solid contact from Holliday. Can we start to relax a little?
-
It won't happen that way. My theory is that robots will make the call, but union dues-paying umps will do the on-field theater. And that will be a good thing.

Confidence building DP for Holliday (fingers crossed)

Didn't ANYBODY give O'Hearn a script? How are we supposed to get all the prospect up if he won't quietly fade away?

The skies open and the angels sing!

Fair.

Grayson needs to go 100 pitches tonight regardless of the outcome on the theory the non-existent Orioles offense doesn't show up.
