Nora Valkyrie knocks another one out of the park!!!  Looks like Mistral’s star hitter is CRUSHING the Vale team - literally!

finally back at it again with the Olympics Au. I was only gonna make the first pic but then I saw an amazing shot of Yordano Ventura leaping to tag someone and had to do the 2nd one

Christmas is going to be difficult this year. My grandmother passed just before Thanksgiving and, naturally, because she’s a grandma, she was obsessed with Christmas. She mainlined Hallmark movies. She loved sitting under the lights and drinking hot cocoa and winking and talking about Santa Claus. 

But Grammy also was obsessed with baseball. She grew up in Detroit and hung out with the Tigers players at the bowling alley. She later moved to Cincinnati and became a die-hard Reds fan. And she helped turn me into a baseball fan. I miss her terribly and was allowed to write about her for Cut4. I would love for you to take a look and get to know this very special lady.

You may not have realized it, but the Metropolitan Museum of Art has arguably the best baseball card collection in the world. And you can thank one man for it: Jefferson Burdick. I got a chance to go to the museum and hear the story behind it all. (I even got to see a Honus Wagner, which is a personal dream come true.) 

Here are a few things I didn’t write, but are worth your time: 

OK, I know this is hockey and not baseball, but I still found it very amusing. Who has the biggest butt on the Bruins, and why are hockey butts so important? ($)

I’m guessing you’re not spending a lot of time paying attention to the Dominican Winter League. That’s fine -- it’s hard to follow. But if you want to catch up for the postseason, Jake Mintz has the preview. 

The decade is almost over which means it’s time to reflect on the very best that ever was. Since defensive plays are my personal favorite, these are the greatest plays for every team of the last decade. Get ready to REMEMBER SOME GUYS.
