Carson Benge and Nolan McLean were two-way standouts at Oklahoma State.

Now they're carving out separate paths they hope lead them to the same destination in Queens.

Mets prospects Nolan McLean and Carson Benge quit being two-way players to speed up their big league goals
Nolan McLean and Carson Benge were two-way stars with Oklahoma State. Now they’re doing things their own different ways for the Mets.

Took my first flight since watching The Rehearsal season 2. Captain and co-captain talked before the flight.

Progress in action!

I think I enjoyed OBAA better on rewatch?

My surgeon was impressed that I made a diving catch in softball with a bum wrist (carpal tunnel) and only moderately injured where I had Crohn’s surgery. Please clap at this time

The Morning Show is such an unhinged mess and yet I can't keep from watching it

The Chair Company is an instant classic

Pretty fun two weeks at the movies

A fun birthday in the books.

Caught Stealing (great baseball adjacent plot in there btw), Rolo’s and Jonny’s Pizza were all winners in their own ways

A.J. Ewing set a goal for himself this year — reach 60 steals.

He’s on the verge of completing that.

My feature — on the Mets speedster’s breakout season 👇

Meet A.J. Ewing, the Mets speedster tearing through the minors
During this year’s spring training, the Mets prospect made a conscious effort to get over any apprehensions and stay true to what got him drafted in the first place.

Naked Gun was really funny and worth seeing. Keeps what made the original funny without veering too much into fan service

Man, Eddington is still really sitting with me a day later. Going to definitely need a rewatch

After watching “Mac and Dennis Become EMTs” I’m reminded how Always Sunny still has its fastball. Hilarious beginning to end

This makes me sad
For those wondering: There's been a rumored notion of a ground-rule triple for a ball off the ladder at Fenway. But, it is sadly a myth. The only Fenway ground rule related to the ladder is that if it hits the ladder and bounces out of play, it's an double.

Went to Regal Mystery Monday and have to say “Oh, Hi” was really funny.

Best way I can sum it up is if Misery was turned into a millennial comedy

I’m not someone to get weepy during a movie but I was throughout most of this one.

Fantastic movie with a wonderful message
This is the final poster. Now get up & go!

Amped for this one. S.A. Cosby is quickly becoming a favorite

Just saw The Phoenician Scheme. Really fun movie that had a lot charm! Props for a good ending, too

Scott Blewett not beating the nominative determinism allegations today

These are the questions I'm here for
I can't imagine anyone's ever done it, but I wonder who is closest to hitting for MLB's Water Cycle: A HR into the Allegheny River (Pittsburgh), McCovey Cove (SF), the Pool in Arizona and the Kansas City fountain. I promise I'm not high or drunk. I'm legitimately curious.

I have no idea how to feel after watching The Rehearsal finale but that was incredible TV

Is that the first time a Francisco Alvarez backpick actually worked?

How I feel about the NFL trying to make every little event into “a thing”

Quite honestly haven’t cackled this much at a movie in the theaters in a long time
