samhexum Posted January 26, 2023 Author Share Posted January 26, 2023 Japan completed naming its 30-man roster on Thursday for the World Baseball Classic, which includes outfielders Lars Nootbaar of the St. Louis Cardinals and Masataka Yoshida of the Boston Red Sox. Nootbaar has a Japanese mother but grew up in California and does not speak Japanese. He is the first to play for Japan in the WBC who qualifies because of his ancestry. Japan announced its first 12 members earlier this month, including the Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani, San Diego Padres pitcher Yu Darvish and Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki. Nootbaar said a few weeks ago at a Cardinals event in St. Louis that he does not speak Japanese but is working on it with his mother, Kumi Enokida. "I am going to try [to speak] a little bit," he said. "Obviously it's going to be tough to learn a language in a month. I'm going to try my best. My mom is singing the Japanese national anthem in the house. I'm repeating it. We're just doing little stuff like that." + WilliamM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samhexum Posted February 1, 2023 Author Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Lin Manuel Miranda's cousin (you know-- the successful one in the family) has been evolving. He apparently felt worn down late last year and has been on a new workout program and diet, trying to eat more chicken and vegetables in lieu of sweets. “He looks sexy,” Correa said about Miranda. “You see that body? He looks sexy. He looks really good. He looks in shape, he looks ready to work.” an old pic... not the way he looks now, supposedly.
