Rock Raines loved the head first slide because he didn’t want to damage the contents in his back pocket. 🤦‍♂😂

He was able to play a game with his son Tim Raines JR while both on the Orioles in 2001

In ‘86/‘87 MLB owners colluded about Free Agency salaries to keep the salaries at a minimum. Tim was caught in the middle of that when he was a free agent. He later sued and won $865K in collusion damages.

Raines WAR was higher than fellow HOFer Lou Brock. Rickey Henderson stole much thunder from Rock Raines legendary career.

Good Morning!

A Gary Carter flashback edition of #WhatsOnYourDesk.

Get out there and create something today!

And always #BeTheGood.

Mike Marshall pitched 179 innings (all out of the bullpen!) in 1973 with a 14-11 record, 2.66 ERA and 31 saves. He would go on to win the 1974 Cy Young for the Dodgers (traded in the off-season for Willie Davis), while setting a major league record for appearances by a pitcher with 106.

A big thank you to @CashLumber for these beautiful wood art pieces. Just put them up on my wall today and very excited to show them off!

This card replaced the infamous Mike Witt Black Box card that was released originally in the high series print runs for a very limited time. It worked out well, since this card features two players who had stellar careers and one who became a Hall Of Famer.
