    One Draft Hot-Take

    Except me. I can be a generally miserable sort.

    Bello to IL with lat tightness

    I think it's pretty well-established at this point that our Sox are the unluckiest of all the Soxes. TIME MISSED: 1B: A week of April-May-June-??? 2B: April SS: Season 3B: About half of April, and counting OF: A few weeks of O'Neill C: HEALTHY P1: Season P2: Just starting 15-day P3...

    Red Sox sign Danny Kirwin from the Oakland Ballers

    That's a deep cut. Kudos.

    Nice work, Kutter!

    Pittsburgh 4/20, High Time for a Win for Kutter

    Pirates shouldn’t swing at anything given Kutter’s command at the moment.

    Raptors' Jontay Porter banned from NBA for betting on games

    The thread title doesn't tell the whole story -- the larger crime isn't that Porter bet on games, it's that he manipulated the games themselves. This wasn't just a kid trying to win $50 on FanDuel when the league told him not to bet, this was about opening a path to real game fixing and...

    The Next Pats QB: Daniels or Maye?

    Thunderdome! Another relevant nugget from the Schrager draft -- after the 4 QBs go off the board by 1-6, no more QBs in first round. Nix and Penix both Day 2. Wonder if that'd mean Vikings and/or Broncos would pay up to get to one of the top spots in Round 2?

    4/15 Borel's Million Dalbecs

    It's beyond ironic that Cora is often known as "The Genius" 'round these parts, but this might be the dumbest baseball team I've ever experienced.

    The Pantheon of Boston announcers: Who you got?

    I was planning to do the whole "How about Jon Miller?" thing until I saw @WinRemmerswaal beat me to it. He was a great combination of knowledgeable and funny with just a whisper of irony, long before that became common.

    4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....

    Before I cowardly left the game thread, I noted Boomer was my first favorite player. That started because we share a birthday, and when you’re six years old, that’s all the criteria you need. (Eventually it got way less important — Kyrie Irving also shares our birthday) But my Boomer fandom...

    4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....

    Had a couple wild pitches, if that counts!

    4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....

    Is that an error on Casas? Should be.
