Today's #MiLBCoD is TriStar Prospects Plus Frisco RoughRiders John Mayberry. Son of the elder. His best seasons were '11 & '12 with the Phils. Finished with the Jays & Mets.

Tell me your favorite story about the player, team, etc. Especially if it's MiLB.

RPs appreciated.

Didn’t get to post this yesterday but damn…this is G Noah Erliden of the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League.

With the Otters up one over Brantford and six seconds left in the game, Erliden makes THAT save!! #OHL

If you start "Fissure Quest" at exactly 11:32:58 pm tonight, Boimler will scream "Holy (bleep)! We're all going to die!" just as 2026 begins.

No worries If you're late! You can start "The New Next Generation" at 11:54:25 & he'll do the same thing!

The perfect way to start 2026. #StarTrekLowerDecks

I made this ceramic globe because our leaders are reckless and the world feels more fragile than ever.

Let's hope in 2026 we take better care of our planet, each other and stand against cruelty.

Wishing everyone more peace and love.

One thing I'll miss, because we'll never get broadcasting like this again - is when Vin Scully would share a story about baseball of yesteryear. This was Vin's account of seeing Sandy Koufax at his Brooklyn Dodgers try out.

Governor Healey and the Democratic supermajority in the MA Legislature can be doing far, far more than they have this year to push back against Trump and show what good progressive governance looks like. MA deserves more from them in 2026.

Mass. Democrats are pushing back against the Trump administration. There’s only so much they can do. - The Boston Globe
Much of the challenge in pushing back against the Trump administration, state leaders said, is responding to an administration making changes to everything all at once.
