Hello all, you there! Once again, I bid a formerly fond greeting as winter slowly unfolds its buoyant collection of spring.

According to this suspicious scribe, “[former Tampa Bay first basemen] […]

He, which is also me, as well as yours truly, is right here, trying his best to fight through his struggles with things pertaining both to his baseball, and to the baseball of everyone else. It has not been a year that will be worth any rememberances or thousand-word pictures, at least in the scuffling […]

Hello again, readers of the faith! As you have witnessed without a doubt, my countrymen have turned tables 360 degrees against the mighty high American squadron.
