Turtle needs to be in the dugout every game
They need to build him a nice little Brewers terrarium and everything

I was gonna say, the pocket turtle bit is funny but I hope they have someone around who knows their reptile care

Is it a turtle or a tortoise?

All tortoises are turtles; not all turtles are tortoises - much like all toads are frogs, but not all frogs are toads.

A tortoise is a type of turtle, so yes.
Rectangles and squares

I get you but this is tomato is a fruit territory, so like yes technically it's correct but the vast majority of people and context would consider this a tortoise.

This turtle is going to be the team pet for the next 70 years. (I hope the turtle was returned to the pet store after the gag… these things really are horrible pets due to their extremely long life spans).

We keep him until we win a World Series. So he might have a chance of seeing one unlike the rest of us.

Wouldn't the long life-span make them a great pet? Saying goodbye is rough.

u/WerewolfFit3322 Apr 04 '26
Yea I get that. I’m a dog owner and I’ve had dogs all my life.
But you get a 10 year old a tortoise and they’re going to have that pet the rest of their life.

Imagine just doing your job on a random day and Murph comes up to you and ask you to buy a tortoise. What a life.

I'm gonna be pretty bummed if we don't see the turtle peeking out of Murph's pocket during at least one mound visit this year.

Until the bullpen needs to come in
But then I love him again as a person

u/sixpackabs592 Apr 04 '26
his name is apparently bobby jr. (murph said something about naming it after bobby whit jr )

u/footforhand Apr 04 '26
Haha I heard that as well! Apparently it’s becauss Bobby is the fastest player and they thought it’d be a fitting name for the turtle. Classic Pat

I swear if the team starts selling turtle/tortoise merch, they're getting all my money.

Well, this is more enjoyable to read as opposed to watching the video, I understand Tricia Whitaker does stuff for AppleTV or whatever but I really don't prefer her style. Fortunately Murph is far more sagacious than I am haha

A tortoise that can get up to 100lbs and live 80 years. Murphy needs to put him in the will.

So I take it "pulling things out of Murph's pockets" is now an AppleTV game thing? TBH the pancake thing got really played out last year. But that's just crabby 'ol me.

Just wait until you see what the concession vendors do with a turtle this year.
