2017 has rolled in and is starting to get its bearings, but that doesn’t mean we can’t talk a little more about New Year’s Resolutions. While the team in general probably has things like “hit better with runners on base”, “actually catch the ball when it is hit to you”, and “not blow a late [...]
Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot, and old lang syne? I don’t have much to say here, but it seemed nice to end the year on a run of five straight days of posting, something that I don’t think this blog has seen since….well, all the [...]

Happy holidays to you all! I hope that you had a great Christmas and the return to work this week (assuming you are returning to work, of course) isn’t terribly painful. It’s been a long time since I sat down to write an actual post here. There’s a reason why the median age of bloggers [...]

A funny thing happened on the way to Washington for the Winter Meetings. Most avid fans such as myself really thought that St. Louis was in the catbird seat to acquire an outfielder via the trade market. Things may have played out differently had Boston not overwhelmed the field and snatched a certain ace lefty [...]
