It’s late September and the Browns are all alone at the top of the AFC North. All is right with the world. Happy Friday!
We’ve got a big MLB slate tonight that is jam packed with aces and plenty of offense headlined by the Padres travelling to Coors Field. The weather in Minnesota is very dicey, with a straight Orange from Roth to start the day, but with Shohei Ohtani on the mound I’m leaving this game in the write-up as if it plays. Just be sure to stay alert if you are using anyone in this game. Really, you should stay alert anyway, just in life in general. Safety first.
