I NEVER heard of the name "Gunnar" till we got one. And now there's another one.

I'm sure they do.

He's extremely good at baseball.  But is he 1-5 good?

Well, FG had him as the sixth prospect in the draft, project him to land at 85 on the top-100 and had him in the FV50 tier (tied with all of the other top guys), so I’d assume that qualifies as them thinking he is approximately 1-5 good.

I see it pop up out west here with some frequency.  It's part of the family of non-traditional first names that includes the likes of:

Gunner (Gunnar), Fisher, Hunter, Bridger, and Digger

The Yankees pick looks like a politician.

Since the moment he was drafted this song plays in my head every time his name gets mentioned. I'll be disappointed if this Nelson Twins song doesn't get played at OPACY the first time Gunnar makes an appearance.

I'd develop a nervous disorder if that happened to me.

I laughed.  It's been a long time since I read it, so my recollections a bit hazy, but I remember it as being a kinda scary but more kinda cute "girl lost in the woods" story that took a while to build up.

Beside Ricky... I never (bothered) to know any of their names!

 

 

 

Pop, fluff, piece of craps!

It only lasts a moment, now if this song didn't stop playing in my head there would be a problem.

One of the tidbits ESPN lists for the Cubs now that they are up is…”Did not have a player on the COVID-19 injured list in 2020.”

Alrighty. Congrats on the health?

I'm still psyched I got to post the Seal Clubbing Club song.

Been sitting on that one for years.
