- Random news anniversary about an event I can't remember hearing about.
- The Texas Rangers have chosen not to sign fan favorite Joey Gallo and have traded him to the Yankees instead. Here are the bottom payrolls for MLB teams for the 2021 season:
- And, seriously, Saturday night is Joey Gallo bobble-head night at the Rangers' ballpark.
