We are approaching that time of year where I can get a parking space right outside of my office and wear shorts and sandals to work because no one is here. #SchoolsOutForSummer

Every article I read about him includes some reference to it not being possible for him to keep this up and then he keeps keeping it up.

Who’d have predicted the Cubs catcher slot would lead the team in almost every offensive category…even triples!!! Kelly and Amaya really bringing it!!

it does feel like the kind of thing that would come along with a "click here to accept" and if I don't do it in 24 hours I still have to pay...

feeling like I just got in under the wire, but my student loans were forgiven a couple of weeks ago! I of course missed the email.

That second one was a solid look, and that last one was closer than anyone wanted.

Man, what’s up with the Dodgers? What a disappointment this season. And with that payroll!

Ryno invigorated by return to Cubs camp MESA, Ariz. -- Ryne Sandberg was in conversation on the agility field at the Cubs’ complex on Saturday morning, when he received a tap on his left shoulder. The Hall of Famer turned and lit up at the ...

β€œIn a lot of ways, it takes us back to our late 20s and 30s, being players. And the stories just continue and pick right up as if I saw them last week."

The Cubs are thrilled to have Ryno in camp this spring, and a couple of his old friends made a surprise visit this weekend.

I didn’t trust the cubs to not immediately trade Nico, which would have made the benefits of getting bregman obsolete.

I got to be in my happy place this weekend. Even though it was snowing. Montpelier is always centering for me.

My office building is directly next to the athletic building, and my window looks out on a parking lot…I spend a lot of the day watching student athletes’ cars getting parking tickets. Not feeling confident this person who parked in the handicapped spot, already with a ticket, is gonna make it.

I just keep thinking about last year and how injuries in June (?) just ravaged our team. And giving Shaw more time at 3b can’t hurt…he’s a better defender than Morel but I imagine Cubs still smarting a bit from that experiment.

What if we kept them all? I’d rather have this depth and be able to weather inevitable injuries. If we had all of them, just about anyone could get hurt, and ppl could shift and Shaw could fill in. OF goes down, Suzuki to OF, Shaw DH. 2b or 3b, shaw direct replace. SS, Hoerner to ss, Shaw to 2b…

Yes, sorry wires crossed!! I did archaeology at Montpelier, not monticello.

Oh I’m so glad!! I directed field excavations there for 8 years for that exhibit, including the reconstructed south yard. Headed up next week to do some GPR on the site for this coming year.
