I look forward to baseball season all year long. The NFL draft is today and I’m really not phased by it. The Capitals are playing the Penguins in the playoffs for what feels like the 493rd year in a row and I’m looking forward to it, but not as much as I look forward to Opening Day. I’m just a baseball guy. I live and breath it. When it goes away, I can’t wait for it to return.
And that’s why this month has been truly devastating. In the span of 24 games, I went from 100 percent psyched about the Orioles chances in 2018, to dreading what the next few days, weeks, months, and years will bring for this club.
