- The outfield teens did a KING 5 interview. Jarred Kelenic talked at length about how hot he thinks he is.
- When I played baseball, my dad was my coach. He used to tell the other kids that he played center field for the Yankees. This was not real, a complete lie, a fabrication. But it made the other kids think he was extremely cool. Who knew all he had to do earn cool points was a choreographed helmet bounce routine?
Practiced this up and down the hallways of hotels in the bushes for years. Glad all that hard work paid off! https://t.co/UBvpKz4LSV

Around the League
- Major League Baseball made important strides on Thursday.
- If you want to send Brodie Van Wagenen some money I guess you can do that? If I were Brodie Van Wagenen I would simply accept the LinkedIn request I sent him months ago.
Mets fans are pretty passionate. So much so that many have been sending GM Brodie Van Wagenen money on Venmo. One did so b/c he wanted them to sign Anthony Rendon. Another wanted Joe Girardi hired. A modern way that fans interact with their favorite team: https://t.co/BnekxAITo0

Griffin Canning’s MRI showed “chronic changes to the UCL” and acute joint irritation, the Angels said. He will undergo further assessments over the next couple days and they will update his status as more information comes in.
