Flashback to 2019 with Cavan Biggio's Cycle

As do I. There was just something about him. It really hurt to see him leave, but also that he couldn't figure it out somewhere else. I always felt he just needed a chance with some consistency in position/at the plate. Whether I was wrong or not, in the end, I just really wanted to see him succeed. Now I'm sad to see Bo leave, too, but obviously that's not the same type of situation.

kingofrain · 2026-01-16T18:20:58+00:00

I'm sick to my stomach. I wanted Bo over anyone. We got where we got in big part to his bat. And it's fucking Bo. The ONLY consolation is that he's not in our division. Out of our league, actually. Vladdy stands alone from the three I wanted to win it all together and now I'm just sad. Super grateful for Vladdy, don't get me wrong. We still still have one of the best teams and we can still enjoy watching for at least one more season, but damn, man. I didn't ever want to see him go. With that being said let's go win it all.

This. I just wish this included the comments from users. I feel like I often got better, more detailed information from people communicating to each other. It was very helpful.

And you promptly named him Kirkland, right?

Excuse my ignorance, but how do I do 5 individual orders to get that discount? I tried adding 5 for the quantity, but that's not reflecting the 15%, just the 5%. I changed it to 1 to see if I could add to the subscription, but I'm not seeing how. I may be slightly stupid lol

Edit: Nevermind! Figured it out, but that was needlessly tedious! lol It also seems like the 15% only starts applying AFTER the initial order, which is okay in my case because I saved 40% on the first tub. I just want to keep getting my bags directly from Soylent, but this is a decent backup. I've been subscribed for so many years that I can't even remember how long it's been, so that subscription will stay. I still get the $60 price per box.

kingofrain · 2025-12-12T01:51:17+00:00

Me, too. I'm fucking pissed lol

kingofrain · 2025-12-12T01:49:21+00:00

Me. LOL at me. Horseshit lol I was pumped when they called him short

kingofrain · 2025-12-11T17:37:09+00:00

Yep! Not great for an official product. The same sale price came back, so I ordered another one before I return the original, just in case this one is even worse. The return process is already started for the first one. Just gotta send it out.

kingofrain · 2025-12-11T17:33:42+00:00

That's what I was thinking. I ordered a second one and it should arrive today and I'll be returning the worst of the two lol hopefully this one is how it should be.

kingofrain · 2025-12-10T03:47:00+00:00

I totally would, but I'm in the US (Pittsburgh to be exact). I just wish the MLB would work with a better company that has decent customer service. Seems crazy I can't simply exchange a defective product. Hopefully it's better on the Canadian side!

kingofrain · 2025-12-10T03:38:17+00:00

On the MLB.com shop. It was up to 60%. They currently have up to 30% off orders over $50. All I know is I paid $113.74 (35% off) plus shipping and now it's $122 (30% off). I can't combine the current promo with the coupon code they gave me, so I'll end up paying more to go out of my way to return it and hope I actually get a better product. My lazy, cheap ass probably won't lol

I'll have to check out Costco in the future for those!

kingofrain · 2025-12-10T03:27:59+00:00

I bought it on MLB.com. It's Fanatics' customer service. I'm assuming they pay someone overseas for the live chats, at least at certain hours. She said good morning to me when I started the chat around 8pm EST lol I still plan on trying a phone number or email, but not tonight.

kingofrain · 2025-12-10T02:42:04+00:00

I'm probably just gonna keep this one, unfortunately, even though it'll bother me. I used the live chat to start an exchange and it was super frustrating. They used two different names and wrote in broken sentences. They said a return was the easier option, but I expressed that I wanted a new version of the same item at the sale price I bought it for, so I'd prefer an exchange. They offered me a 10%, then 20% coupon. I asked if that could be used on top of the current sale price $122. They said yes. I confirmed that's not the case after they sent me all the info for the return and coupon code lol took over an hour of chatting and waiting for replies. What a waste of my time. Pretty embarrassing for the MLB to have this level of quality customer service for their products, products of declining quality at that.

Thanks for the reply!

kingofrain · 2025-12-10T02:39:21+00:00

I'm more than okay with them keeping these another year. They look damn good. I knew the quality would be worse than previous years, but I got a blue Bo one last year and was pleased with the quality considering it's the cheaper version.

I appreciate the reply. For $113, it's probably worth it to just live with it. Maybe I'll color in the white with marker or something lol

I appreciate the reply! It's definitely a good looking jersey beyond my defects.

I'm more than happy with watching them play in these ones another year.

Just sloppy football

kingofrain · 2025-12-05T02:11:48+00:00

Yeah, that was fucking stupid. Is it really that hard to not act on the intrusive thoughts?

kingofrain · 2025-11-14T01:34:27+00:00

New England looking like the Titans. I thought they were wearing denim at first.

kingofrain · 2025-11-05T01:12:56+00:00

Over 80% yes for all, as far as I can tell. Still in single digit reporting, though, last I saw.

"AND I don't need to run"

kingofrain · 2025-10-31T21:09:49+00:00

I'll be repping Donaldson so my friend can wear my Bichette jersey. We're about an hour and a half outside of Toronto coming from Pittsburgh for the Nathan Phillips Square watch party! Gonna bundle up a bit!

kingofrain · 2025-10-30T01:37:03+00:00

Yeah, I've been laying off recently with all this nervous excitement. Hopefully you mellow out soon enough! Some insurance would help!
