Not really MLB, but related because it includes:
- Lenny Dykstra
- Shidduchim
- Siyum Hashas
- Don Zemmer


The fact that Lenny Dykstra is so active on Frum Twitter will never not be amazing.

I know someone who knows Lenny and told me there's a frum guy who runs his Twitter account.

C'mon man!
A) That was pretty obvious
B) It's still prety entertaining

But going back to A, I know some non-Jews are "holding" a bit, but a psychotic drug addict former player holding in Chazal, shidduch culture, and obscure Jewish holidays?

Not holding in Nails, the only thing I saw was this post (and was amazed at the level of his knowledge), but I guess even this post out of context is too unbelievable to be from him

Re-reading the twitter thread under the lens of Lenny's frum media manager - maybe he's trying to date this girl that he already knows and is flirting with her on twitter? :)

I am very active in twitter, including frum twitter, and I am SO confused by his account. My friend (who is actually upset by the whole thing) said that a frum guy runs the account. Even so, there are videos where he is talking about torah and obscure references and the lubavitcher rebbe etc.
According to articles on google, Lenny learns with a chabad guy every wednesday. Which makes no sense to me - no judgement, but why would a chabad guy learn with a non jewish guy?
I just have no idea what is going on with that account lol

That "girl" is very active in frum twitter, seems like a fine person, but is totally anonymous and uses a stock photo lol

Because teaching sheva mitzvas bnei noach is part of our mission, plus someone of his (questionable) stature can have an impact on others, especially if there are Jewish family members. I have no idea what they are "learning", but I doubt it's shor shenagach or amirah l'akum.

Once a week sounds like a bit much for sheva mitzvos.

Like I said, no idea what they are learning. If I were to hazard a guess, it's more like a weekly meeting that they probably get around to once a month and is more a discussion of various religious and moral themes than a chavrusah.

It could also be part of his parole :) - i.e. needs to do community service or attend a 12-step program.

Wow. Now that is a serious punishment.
One year for Hinch and Luhnow
No first and second round picks for 2020 and 2021
$5 million

That's not a slap on the wrist
