Since I would imagine you are now looking for a more palatable alternative to the Expos book, I might recommend "The Boys of Summer" by Roger Kahn as a wonderful (older) look into a team that really connected with its community in a way you don't see anymore.

This was really nice, Lindsey. I went to college with Sarah and had the great pleasure of sharing a history seminar all about baseball and American culture with her. It was the best. Her zest for baseball (and for life) shone through every day, just like it does now.

Trading Morant would be a fool's errand. The Grizzlies have never had a player with his dynamism and drawing one to that market is a major challenge. I don't think there's a lot of reshaping that needs to be done. Also: renouncing Aldama would be crazy, he's been a huge piece of the leap forward.

He's looked fucking awesome and is fully stretched out. They're opening on the road and want to line it up so Senga starts the home opener.

He is just incapable of operating outside of his worldview, I think.

Anyway, I wrote about all this last week, there's nothing much new to say about it I guess. I also believe that people who want more from this country and care more for each other outnumber the people trying to make all that impossible, and that we'll outlive them. defector.com/billionaire-...

infuriating result but I genuinely don't hate Everton so it's whatever, I'll take a draw at Goodison any time

Besides, southern half of Mercer County NJ should get rolled into here
