…the Phillies placed him on paternity leave:
Prior to tonight’s game against the San Diego Padres, the Phillies placed SS Trea Turner on the paternity list. To fill his spot on the 28-man roster, the club recalled INF/OF Weston Wilson from Lehigh Valley (AAA).

Trea Sheisty that’s my dawg!
Congrats on the sex! That’ll make it 23 home runs on the year for Trea.
P.S. For all the “well actually guys” saying that pregnancies are 10 months instead of nine, like Ant, you must be a TON of fun at parties:
Should I tell @kylepaganCB that it’s 40 weeks for a pregnancy and not 36 or nah? https://t.co/CqJMWH8xoA

What the fuck do you think I know about pregnancy? I’ve lived my entire life thinking pregnancies are nine months. Are you telling me I’ve been lied to? I don’t believe it and I don’t think it’s true. We should test it using the Card Shark method:
You poll 100 men how long they think pregnancy lasts I GUARANTEE over 50 will tell you nine months.
Plus I never let facts get in the way of a good story.
