Went to Glendale for 4 days. I actually saw JR pull up to the front gate at camelback on a golf cart. He doesn't look like the 90 year olds i've known. Having lots of cash really helps retard the aging process. At least on the outside. Went to Sox/Cubs opener in Mesa with my Cubs fan Brothers in law. Pretty sweet game. Saw Sox beat the Brewers at the ranch. Camelback really is pretty great. The wife and I might go back without the relatives in a year or two.

Damn, you have to wonder about 1972. One more quality starter might have done it. A's beat us by 5 games. Then they blew everyone else away in the playoffs. Wilbur Wood RIP started almost 50 games that year and faded in the second half.

Deez two Yutes. My wifes favorite movie.

Nothing to do with the draft. Just happy tomorrow football is over. NFL sucks the life out of everything when it's going on. For me, baseball season begins the day after the Superbowl.

I still think Ramos can have a career. Hope he stays healthy with the O's.

Loved the Gooch.

I'm just glad LuBob is gone. The injury thing was getting really old.

I wish Ed was still alive and still in charge. People who can evaluate talent in any sector are the real geniuses.

I knew you were a longtime fan by your name. That and Augsberger were the beers sold at Comiskey when I was young. Wood and Buehrle are the two pitchers that have their pictures on my Sox shrine wall. Wilbur and Dick Allen are my boyhood heroes.

Best .240 hitter I ever saw. Nobody advanced on the catcher with a pitch in the dirt like he did.

Thanks Lip, January is the toughest non baseball month for me. These posts help keep me from the looney bin. 😋

I'm sorry he hasn't worked out. Truth be told, he could've played like Babe Ruth and we wouldn't have been .500 the last three years.

never underestimate the power of booze.

From what i've seen online, you can't leave the heteros out of that conversation either.

If Robert is surrounded by players taking walks and working counts, he might stop swinging at everything himself. Of course, that is a really big if. Self awareness and change can be almost impossible sometimes.
