"i forgive myself for what i did" and "i should not have done that" are two statements that can and should coexist. you can forgive yourself while holding yourself accountable. you can understand that you fucked up while also understanding that you're human.

Dodgers have traded to get Trayce Thompson from Detroit. Pretty excited cause bro is a solid player. Should be splitting time with Zach Mckinstry in the outfield.

My 13 year old cousin came back from a date with her boyfriend and said, "I can't wait to grow up and spend sunday afternoons with him." At first, I wanted to laugh (after all they're just 13), but I remember being 13 and having the world in my hands. I remember getting excited to talk to someone about my dreams and wishes, and how happy these daydreams and fantasies made me. There's this innocence you can only have at 13 and the world rises and falls and crashes and burns every year... until you do not think about quiet sunday afternoons.
So I asked her about the date and heard her giggle about bubblegum flavored ice cream, and how much she loves this little life. I think she makes me love it too.

someone being patient with you is one of the softest forms of love

So we know Opening Day is very emotional for a lot of different players, for a lot of different reasons. And for José Iglesias, I got the information from 1st base coach Ron Gideon, the emotion was real. He lost his father about a month ago and that base hit meant a lot to him.
