What Now?

Hello Reader


Off Base has been in the DL for quite some time, to the point that he thinks his reader has given up entirely. Here's the skinny.


The World Baseball Classic was the best baseball mash-up ever. It's been difficult to get engaged in the regular season after such a celebration of tyhe sport. Base has also changed day jobs. It was the equivalent of being called up to the show from single A. It was also an 800 mile move, and a huge arguement with U-Haul about pulling one of their trailers behind a Budget truck. Even the drop-off agent commented "that's just wrong".


It hasn't been a difficult adjustment switching regional home teams from the Rockies to the Rangers. Base has never had an American League team, unless living in Portland and following the Mariners counts. That was in the era of Randy Johnson, A-Rod, Griffey Jr, et al, so it might have happened regardless of my domicile.


The most interesting thing about this season is whether Detroit can reall pull it off.
