At the suggestion from the Baseball Oafs Discord server, here are some fun things from this past week that are thread worthy, but didn’t create the GDT title:

But can they beat The Mets????

Smyly was upset that he lost the worst HR/9 in the NL when Lance Lynn moved to the Dodgers, so he's trying to rectify that.

Another spring commute
Smyly's been dogshit for a couple months now and it's really annoying the Cubs didn't also make a move to bring in a SP upgrade + bust Smyly down to the pen.

It's been very on brand lately for the Cubs to lose game 1 and then win the rest of the series.

It's also been very on brand lately for the Cubs to come back and win games. :cool:

As a man seeing electricity for the first time.

Twins go down 1-2-3 for the second inning in a row, but:

A. No strikeouts, which is a very welcome change

B. When you assemble an eight run cushion immediately you can take some time.

C. It also helps if you have Pablo Lopez.

We are six innings in and the Twins have exactly two strikeouts.

I don't know what the hell we changed after the Royals sweep, but whatever we're doing, keep doing it.
