"Here's me throwing an adult tantrum" - Lance Lynn's wife Dymin gives dramatic farewell ahead of husband's 10-day road trip
On Sunday, Lance Lynn's wife, Dymin, shared an inside view of what being a baseball wife looks like. MLB players have to play 162 games in the regular season and almost half of them are on the road.
This results in a baseball player leaving his family to go on lengthy road trips, leaving them upset at times, just like Dymin was when Lance had to depart on a 10-day road trip.
Sharing a CCTV footage from their house, Dymin showed how upset she was learning about Lynn's next trip.
"Here's me throwing an adult tantrum because Lance is going on a 10-day road trip," she wrote in her story.
Lance Lynn signing with Cardinals was homecoming for him and Dymin
Lance Lynn has come a long way since making his debut with the Cardinals in 2011 and staying there until 2017. After his one-year stint with the Dodgers in 2023, Lynn became a free agent and agreed to a one-year deal with the team that drafted him 39th overall in the 2008 MLB Draft.
A lot went into considering his next stop and none could topple what the Cardinals had to offer: being closer to home and being on a team that can go into the playoffs.
“We’ve got a lot of routes, and we’re where we want to be,” Lynn said. “It kind of got to, hey, where can you win but also be able to be home as much as you can on off days and things of that nature, and where family can get to you as easily as possible. There’s no other place that hit all those criteria, so it was an easy call.” [via Yahoo News]
Being with the Cardinals allows Lance Lynn and Dymin to stay closer to his mother-in-law, who is still reeling from the loss of her son, Trace Bittle. Also known as 'Big Nasty' in the community, Bittle died on Nov. 20, 2022, in a car accident.
To remember him, Lance got a tattoo on his left forearm, inked 'Big Nasty'.
