I am a die hard Giants fan, but even I can’t deny the greatness of Cody Bellinger. In 57 games he has hit 24 home runs and stolen five bases with a .274/.342/.679 triple slash this year. The Dodgers have 85 games left and if he plays 80 of the games, he would hit 57 home runs for the season… AS A ROOKIE… IN A 137 GAMES!!!

1. A lot of people were offended by Yasiel Puig and his action during his home run last night:

However, I was reminded by Grant Brisbee of McCovey Chronicles that this isn’t even close to the worst (or best) of all time:

I have been “that guy”. If we are honest, we all have been. Typically, when we really dislike something or someone it can be traced to a trait we own or exhibit.
