If you haven’t gotten your shopping done by now, why are you reading this silly post? Get out of here! But for the rest, here’s some more folks that deserve a little something for Christmas.

You really should be following the musical styling of Jeremy. The account for the excellent COD pod has migrated to BlueSky (and, being that the winter is just one big off day, the pod’s been quiet lately as well). Caleb brings sharp takes both to his account and the Hard Nine pod.

Stats and Facts gets the coveted (I’m sure) 70 spot. The podcast has gone, but the Birds on the Bat account keeps chugging along! Joe’s not around much anymore and has gotten completely out of writing, which is the reason the former Top 25 account has fallen. Godar’s also left for bluer skies. Looking forward to having Matt back on Musial sometime next month.

I always gave Tito a lot of grief but I’m sorry that he’s left Twitter and hope he and the family are doing well. GMGirsch lasted longer than GM Girsch. I’m overdo for a session of old men talking about the good old days with Alex. Andrew’s part of that remarkable Dealin’ the Cards team with a perhaps unhealthy obsession with Shohei Ohtani. You don’t usually see a 4.5 average this high up but CL is a very polarizing figure. Blake left Viva El Birdos this year but can still be found over at The Cardinal Nation, which is a very good thing.
One more of these fly-by posts this afternoon and then we’ll slow down with the Top 25 after Christmas.
