Happy Friday. We brought our cat home from the vet hospital last night (after paying quite the ransom), and he seems almost 100% now, which is great considering he was at death’s door when we took him in. We have to give him special food now (special is code for very expensive) and we had […]

We have to give him special food now (special is code for very expensive) and we had locked him in a room at night so we can see if he’s peeing. For the moment, at least, all is good.

The Rangers didn’t tender Adolis Garcia. Also, Reese McGuire wasn’t offered a contract by the Cubs.

Erik came to us from the Mariners (with Adam Macko) for Teoscar Hernandez.

He threw a four-seamer with a lot of backspin (which seemed to put a lot of stress on his arm), which caused it not to drop as much as most pitchers’ four-seamers. He paired it with a splitter and a slider. </p><p class="has-text-align-none">He was fun to watch. Enjoy retirement, Erik. </p><p class="has-text-align-none"></p>)
