is Casas maybe an ideal DH (if healthy obviously). Lefty, strong, slow. Isn't that the definition of Boston DH?

For all of you @mbta.com Green Line riders cursing the closures and delays from a 130-year old piece of equipment, know your T’s history. Read this book. (A nice gift too)

Last Celtics observation. The Pacers lost their star to Achilles injury and traded their center and point guard and are 6-18. Boston lost it star and traded 3 terrific players. And is 15-9. That’s impressive.

Oh of course. I predicted this. I saw Walsh coming. Mazz coach of the year! I also just sold my Crypto for 10 mill. Need to borrow my crystal ball?

Poor @chadfinn.bsky.social ! You probably saw that 20 point #Celtics lead disappear and thought, “That’s what I’m talking about!!” No tanking. How can you not really like this team!
