Less-Discussed Cubs Pitching Targets, Reclamations, Styles of Aging, and Other Cubs Bullets

Our youngest has taken to watching “Learn Japanese” videos on YouTube, specifically one about medical conditions, on a loop. She is an incredible and talented kid, but I’m not sure how much she’s actually picking up. Also, she uses a device to communicate. So if she were actually going to learn and apply Japanese, we would have to program it onto her device for her. Then again, maybe there’s a translate function we can just turn on, and then everybody wins … We haven’t talked a lot abou...

What if you ran baseball?

Question in the title. If I ran baseball for a year I tell you what I’d consider. Much different penalties for over/underspending I don’t think the owners or the players union or the agents really mind if a team spends way more than the others. What are the players going to do, demand they are […]
