Apparently they were only holding back because the trade hadn’t been officially posted on the Facebook page yet. …and here they come. I still stand by the careful, levelheaded (?) things I said in …

Billy Butler: also an AFL alum. Photo by me.

Even though the MLB season is over, there’s still baseball happening, including the league that is pretty much a direct funnel into the Majors.

Good friend of the blog Lee Warren wrote a piece for Examiner.com about minor league livin‘. He interviewed me for the story, and I have to say that the hour+ we spent talking about it was a heck of a conversation. Those of you already familiar with this topic (or who’ve visited my other site) …
