[2] Eh, Boesch has been out for quite a while with a shoulder injury and wasn’t coming back anytime soon. It’s a pity, he would have gotten a real shot this year and probably would have done a better job than the awful offal we’ve been running out there …

[4] Same here. That last line is a keeper.

I’ve written off this season a long time ago, so I’m just enjoying baseball as a game and a sport and a diversion from life this year. The current dynasty is over. The embers are still glowing, but the fire is out.

Well- put, Jon, all of it.
As happy as I was to watch the first game after the break, this one pushed me toward the recognition that the season is lost.
I’ll keep watching, and I plan to take my boys to a game next month. We’ll buy Neal and Mesa shirts.

I got a pretty good chuckle out of that last line. Well played, Jon.

[1] And the timing is…funny? They *just* released Boesch, and then another OF goes down. Whatever. I guess it’s Neal and Mesa now.
