Don’t forget to start picking out some Summer Mix tunes, kids. We’ll start collecting them before too long.

Walked around the graduation party setup this morning. Then went back into my quarantine. This is even harder than I thought it was going to be.
I can't imagine how hard this must be. Best to you, and hopes for the quickest possible negative test.
Thank you for the thoughts. It turned out the party proper has been pretty good. Lots of people came over to talk to me - I’m holding court at an upstairs bedroom window. Probably talked to most of the same people I would have in a normal situation. Winding down now, however.
Sounds like your weather was much better than ours at least - glad you could still enjoy it
Very cool, but not much wind and no rain. Take it!
Only Mrs Runner could set up Spotify on her phone and end up with it playing out of the downstairs thermostat.
We're doing a team building thing for work that's an online cocktail class. I got my kit in the mail yesterday and it looks like we'll be making tequila drinks. Both recipes call for añejo and I don't have much experience with that so I'm looking for recommendations, let me know if you have a favorite. Thanks!
we’ve done a few of those over the pandemmie. i got my sushi making kit and found i had much higher quality versions of all the ingredients. missed the cocktail one though, and would have need that kit.
I like Camarena for a budget friendly anejo, and Espolon is always good. If you want to go rogue and really kick the drink where it counts, get a mezcal instead.
I sometimes get the Costco añejo for use in margaritas. It works well, for my tastes.
Luis Arráez, man. Three at bats, two hits, two walks, three runs, two batted in today. And .324/.430/.402/.832 on the year. Seven strikeouts in 121 plate appearances. Seven. Miguel Sano had 21 strikeouts in 65 plate appearances before the knee sidelined him. Imagine having the MVP and the batting champion on your team, and they aren't the same guy. Again.
His two singles slapped the other way were things of beauty. Which reminds me: did you see Max's single? Left side of second -- I have hope for him yet.
He's hitting lefties better than righties so far this year.
Check that, I thought I heard Dazzle say that on the radio last night but B-R says no, his R/L split is .256/.244. But he's getting on base against left-handers better, .351/.365.

Winder on the (cautionary) IL. I bet we see Smeltzer again before long
First it'll be Ober.
