After reading this tweet by former Pirates pitcher Jameson Tailon on not being able to work with the Yankees’ medical staff due to the lockout, it got me thinking like a LOT! Now me thinking isn’t what you call safe so let’s see where this goes! Now, of course, because I like the number five, I’ll give you my five thoughts on a singular tweet (weird flex but ok.)

Since MLB chose to lock us out, i’m not able to work with our amazing team Physical Therapists who have been leading my post surgery care/progression. Now that I’m in charge of my own PT- what should my first order of business be? I’m thinking I’m done with this boot. It can go😎

Imagine the initial panic you have when half of your contacts in your phone can’t be used.
With the holidays here, I wonder how hard it is not to text your coaches Merry Christmas
What if a coach or front office individual is your brother or relative?
Now imagine number 3 and the dinner table. Would MLB force you to build a partition so you can’t see them?
How severe would the punishment be if caught? Would it be an Astros slap on the wrist thing orrrr?
