So happy for Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper. Good guys. Not gonna lie…I had some tears watching Kyle celebrate.

on edit: the information I got from the MLB app was incomplete....turns out he went Free Agent 12/2/20 from the Cubs, then to Washington till July of 2021, then traded to Boston, then went Free Agent again Nov of 2021, then Philly picked him up from Free Agency. My mistake. Hard to keep up with all of them.

July 29, 2021
Washington Nationals traded LF Kyle Schwarber to Boston Red Sox for RHP Aldo Ramirez.

November 4, 2021
LF Kyle Schwarber elected free agency.

March 20, 2022
Philadelphia Phillies signed free agent LF Kyle Schwarber.

So the Cubs got nothing.

I’m a huge fan of baseball and I can’t handle the politics/business of it all. I love these guys like they were mine. Please don’t flame me. I’m a romantic.

Then, GO Phillies!

I love Rizzo to pieces. I honestly think that his sweet playfulness is lost on the Yankees. I miss his goofiness in the dugout.
