Good morning, everyone.
Yesterday was a full day with lots of cooking, visiting eating, and whatnot. As far as I can tell, the only baseball news of note was the Diamondbacks acquiring Eugenio Suárez from Mariners, which is interesting, but not so interesting that it warrants a full newsletter. So, like a lot of folks, I’m taking today off and calling it a weekend.
Enjoy your shopping if you’re shopping. Enjoy your Dagwood Bumstead-size turkey leftover sandwiches or watching football or going for a nice walk on a brisk fall day or whatever other late November faith you observe.
I’ll throw out some BlueSky codes at least:

bsky-social-5qov3-ffnx3
bsky-social-sdyrz-ktpld
bsky-social-xldqe-qgin6
bsky-social-35fzd-v4oak
And I’ll close with this, because I spent much of the day cooking while listening to these dudes’ 1967-1971 discography yesterday:
Have a great weekend everyone.
Hope everyone had a good Turkey Day. Our meal won't be till tonight as my wife's family long ago decided it made more sense to cook a special meal for the sabbath and to have all of Thursday as well as part of Friday to cook. Also allows us to invite friends. So I spent my day not watching football, washing dishes, and taking in MST3K. Today is more of the same, plus tidying the house and avoiding any shopping since I am not a fan of performative consumption. But it's been Black Friday for two months now, so I have probably participated anyway.
One tiny bit of Mets news: they are hiring John Gibbons to be the bench coach. Make of that what you will. I figure there won't be much news of signings this weekend, but you never know.
I'm up earlier than usual on this "day off" but I'm going to get my car inspected today. The exciting lives we lead. Happy Thanksgiving.
