What made baseball fun this week: Elly De La Cruz is the best thing to happy to Cincinnati since Joe Burrow
By John Buhler
But what about the fans???: Oneil Cruz gives the people what they want, which is mostly bobbleheads
Pittsburgh Pirates star Oneil Cruz may be hurt, but he is showing he can still make a positive impact in the community on a team that ain’t half bad, bruh. Bobbleheads in his name, image and likeness are selling like hot cakes, or pierogis for the Yinzers of the world out there. Once he gets back in the lineup, look out for greatness. Let’s hope he can live up to the hype of his bobblehead.
Cruz is 100 percent a man of the people. The question is if Pittsburgh is 100 percent winning it all?
While we’re still in the rain delay pls enjoy more Oneil bobblehead content https://t.co/bVVUFlVYOe pic.twitter.com/p6L8PYZAIV

Look. I’m not even really one of those Talking Heads, but Once in a Lifetime you get yourself a playmaker in the infield who is more than capable of Burning Down the House. And with this column coming out, as always, On a Friday, even the Radiohead sports stooges of the world like Mark Madden and Pat McAfee can tell the difference between Fake Plastic Trees and fake news.
It wears everyone out, dude, but there is nothing fake about this band of Buccos swabbing the Decks Dark like an ominous ending to an Ozark episode. Surely, the Karma Police will catch up to us at some point, but there’s no reason to be a Paranoid Android about them either. While there should be No Surprises about the Pirates at this time, it is clearly because of Andrew McCutchen…
If we can get Larry and Cruz both cruising at the same time, then baby, you gotta stew going.
