The LA closer may get an opportunity to do so because of MLB’s revised 2020 regular-season schedule. The Dodgers will face West Division teams (NL and AL) exclusively over the 60-game slate, which means there will now be matchups between the teams. Jansen, though, isn’t interested in getting revenge in that manner. MORE: Astros’ Springer hears boos in spring training “That’s not cool. I don’t wish anybody to do that, to throw at people....

The sweet music of a Dodgers World Series win is still ringing in the ears of their fans, and they arguably have no player to thank more than Mookie Betts. Betts was infamously shipped west last year to Los Angeles in a blockbuster deal that Boston is still crying into their chowder over. So leave it to Dodgers fans to continue pouring salt in Red Sox fans’ wounds — this time, by way of billboard....

A handful of recent studies have found an association between inadequate sleep and a sluggish metabolism—starting in children as young as 4 years old. Later bedtimes are also linked to an increased body mass index (BMI), excessive snacking, and higher levels of obesity. The amount of sleep each child needs is individual and based on age.

For the unaware, the theory is that Ditto is actually the result of failed attempts to clone Mew, with the successful attempt resulting in the legendary Pokemon Mewtwo. The evidence for this theory is that Ditto and Mew are the only two Pokemon that know the move Transform, their color schemes and shiny variants are the same, their base stats are identical, and they both weigh 8.8 lbs. Furthermore, those playing Pokemon Yellow can encounter Ditto in the Pokemon Mansion where research on Mew was apparently conducted prior to the events of the game....

Psoriasis is caused by an overactive immune response.

@Laughs_4_All tweeted the video writing, “come on man….throw it.” The video shows what appears to be a young Springer Spaniel eagerly looking up at a statue in the woods, waiting to play fetch.
