We cannot avoid the Carlos Correa kerfuffle, but we off-set it with other players on the move and <a href="https://www.gq.com/story/watches-of-the-week-12-24-22">Aaron Judge’s Rolex</a>.

And we get to the AirBnB part of the “should we go see World Baseball Classic games in Miami?” conversation.</p><p>We say “If I’m gonna be injured, they are too,” “Vine lives with MySpace and the extra socks you lose in the dryer,” and “If you open the beer, I’ll stop talking.” Get boosted, fight the man, send your game balls <a href="https://twitter.com/Bbl_Astrophyscs">to Meredith</a>,  and find us on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/NCIBPodcast">@ncibpodcast</a>, on Facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/NoCryingInBBall/">@nocryinginbball</a>, Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nocryinginbball/">@nocryinginbball</a> and on the Interweb at <a href="https://www.nocryinginbball.com/">nocryinginbball.com</a>.
