And blame the corporate overlords. He just had a kid. Paternity leave is 16 weeks here now. Find a new slant. Remember when he refused to stop calling our colleague c*mrags? A small price to pay for salvation....

The peripherals have been solid all year. He has had some really bad luck. I’ve seen this guy rip 1 million balls right to infielders or outfielders all season. I’m sure mentally, that takes quite a toll on him....
And so, in my first blog since the announcement, I’m goingwayback to our past. 300,000 years or so. Yes, the return of The Pirate Ship might be the biggest story in the history of mankind.
