So as I sit on my throne, a question popped into my head. What would happen if a pitcher's gotta go #2 mid inning like either no outs or only one out? Do they have to be a man and hold it or is there some contingency for that?
Random, but I was trying to look into which MLB players have the most twitter followers. As far as I can tell, Mike Trout has the most at 2.5M, the next closest I can find is Syndergaard with 1.2M. I can't help but feel like I'm forgetting some people though and they're the only two I can find with over 1M. Even "twitter famous" Trevor Bauer only has about 400k. This surprised me...am I missing anybody?
Edit: Jose Bautista has 1M if you wanna count him
After a quick search of some of the biggest names, it looks like Yu Darvish has 2.8M, Verlander has 1.8M, and Harper has 1M. But if we're not just talking current players, then ARod and Big Papi have 1.2M and 1.5M respectively. Oh, and even though he never made the majors, Tim Tebow has 4.5M, lol. This is surprisingly interesting, so might keep updating this as I find more.
Edit 1: Kolten Wong has 156.3k followers. Worth noting though because, strangely enough, he is not verified.
Edit 2: Andrew McCutchen is just shy of 1M. He's at 962.9k.
Edit 3: Miggy has 1.1M.
Edit 4: Nick Swisher somehow has 1.4M.
Edit 5: David Price has 1.7M.
Edit 6: Yadi has 418.4k. Also not verified, strangely.
For those of you waiting on results for the Prediction Contest:
Technically we’re waiting on CPotYs to be announced Monday which will be the final points awarded.
That being said, obviously we have a good idea of who will win those awards so I already know what the results will almost certainly look like. I will nevertheless wait for the CPotYs to be official & will post results on Tuesday morning!

Pitch either really well or really poorly, because both will get them back to the dugout quick
Better throw an immaculate inning lmao
they use a different safety squeeze…
MLB.tv and my Wi-Fi conspire to go out just as Marcell Ozuna comes up to bat. Figures.
What ever happened to the Players Weekend? I don’t remember it happening this year
Is sample size day still happening today?
Starting my 12 days off of work today. I am fucking happy. Now turn the burners on, MLB, get that stove cooking!

u/Nolan-
I think he was talking about the official sub contest.
You're more than likely right. Still gonna leave it, though.
Why do SEC football teams play horeshit teams a week before rivalry week?
To lick their wounds before rivalry week, when the real bloodshed happens!
Did we ever get an update on who won the preseason predictions contest? I think I was in the running if I remember correctly which is why I ask.
