Zane Smith at No. 2 all time is wild.
There are two clear front-runners in MLB.com's first MVP poll of the season, though an impressive number of others have nudged their way into the conversation. From me: mlb.com/news/mookie-be…
With Jackson Holliday struggling since his MLB debut, some Orioles fans might be freaking out a bit. But don't fret, Baltimore. Even some Hall of Fame hitters took a while to get going. Here's a look at seven of them, including two Orioles greats. mlb.com/news/these-hal…
Marcell Ozuna is a legit MVP candidate. (I know it's early.)
It's early, but the 2024 Cy Young races are already taking shape. And, spoiler, they're both wide open. Here's who MLB.com's experts think are leading the way so far. Story by me, so you should definitely click on it. mlb.com/news/corbin-bu…
Here's my favorite John Sterling sequence and call. July 4, 1985. youtube.com/watch?v=HVpjWN…
UGA's Charlie Condon hit two more homers last night to bring his season total to 23, putting him on track to perhaps become the most prolific college slugger since 2000. He's also MLB.com's No. 4 prospect. Read what I wrote about him. mlb.com/news/charlie-c…
Adam Duvall has chosen "The Imperial March" as his walk-up song. I respect it.
Buddy, I've worn "nearly identical" outfits with much greater frequency than "weeks."
That F-7 was the first fly ball Ronald Acuña Jr. has hit all season.
This is the light produced with the sun 80 percent blocked. The solar power is impressive. Psalm 19:1
Mookie Betts is already at 1.5 bWAR after 12 games. Over a full 162, that's 20.25 bWAR, which some would call "good."
What I’ve always loved about Vin Scully‘s call of No. 715 is that he called it straight, just narrating the play. He didn’t try to be memorable or force some perfectly worded button or catchphrase. He just called it, then got out of the way. He was a pro. youtu.be/QjqYThEVoSQ

Retweets aren’t endorsements -- unless about @Yankees.@ByJasonFoster It’s early, & I won’t disagree with a few of the “frontrunners” named, I’ll suggest a player that’s a dark horse (for now) that can absolutely rake. It would be a seismic story however do NOT sleep on Colton Cowser the Rookie OF. Just watch. His #’s are going to be eye popping
Personal news: Started my new job yesterday, on the Marketing and Communications team at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. Very excited to write about the great stories on campus! And, of course, #walletcard Bo is joining me at @umsl. Of course.
@ByJasonFoster I’ve got a round of Lululemon and tshirts that I cycle through,
Silly early season stats that may or may not mean anything, but @ByJasonFoster's write-up for @MLB on Jarred Kelenic is close to my exact thoughts. mlb.com/news/mlb-fun-e…
@ByJasonFoster Also last year - won 104 games without Fried and Wright for the majority of the season. You build depth for a reason, and AA has done a tremendous job of that. Someone will step up to help fill the void.
@ByJasonFoster They also won 104 last yr with 1000 5th starters
I haven't seen a Kerry Lightenberg reference in awhile.
The year was 1999. The Braves played all season without their top power guy (Galarraga), without their closer (Ligtenberg), without their All-Star catcher for the second half (Lopez) and with a top starter (Smoltz) diminished with a bad elbow. They won 103 games and the pennant.
@ByJasonFoster Also got smoked in the World Series - fun year nevertheless. This 2024 team has much better hitting obviously
@ByJasonFoster Great article. It’s worth mentioning that @KKiermaier39 was going to go to Purdue and was roommates with Wittgren but opted for the MLB instead.
@ByJasonFoster Jay Buhner was too easy. Should've went Sexson
@ByJasonFoster Geesh. Whatever happened to editors?
@ByJasonFoster @BravesAmerica I 100% did this as a kid. But what even was the point of this
@ByJasonFoster Well having that extra layer of padding may prevent concussions from happening if they get hit in the head.
To be fair, I also don’t have a hit yet this season. Gotta keep swinging!
People are freaking out over Luis Arraez starting the season 0-for-10. Guess what: He's still gonna hit well north of .300 and probably compete for another batting title.
@ByJasonFoster I keep 1995 Braves legend Brian Kowitz in my back pocket just for situations like this. baseball-reference.com/players/k/kowi…
I’m gonna make fun of you now, but not for that reason.
My official World Series prediction is Orioles vs. Braves. Bookmark this so you can make fun of me in October.
