I share your (guarded) optimism. Yogi Berra actually DID say, “In baseball you don’t know notihin’” and I agree. Every team in the AL East has pitching questions, the Sox perhaps more than most. But they also have WAY more depth than last season and Sale returning in the 2nd half. Should be fun.

I agree, Walt. I'm excited for the fun to start! Bit of a let down about the rain today, but I'm already looking forward to tomorrow.

It’s fun to think the team could be pretty decent this year and then significantly better than that moving forward. For now, I’ll continue to buy minor league hats and enjoy some games in the radio.

That rules. My best ones lately have been the Fresno Grizzlies alt one with a taco on it (had to go to ebay for that), and this sweet baby: https://isotopes.milbstore.com/collections/mariachis/products/hat-mariachis-red-on-field

Baseball! I am excited, and love what you’re doing here. Any chance of Alex Speier on the pod at some point?
