THE HOT CORNER
Good morning easterners! If you missed yesterday’s Links release blame the mothership for their software errors. Next week, however, it will be ALL my fault. It’s a short week, a holiday week, and I have a very busy personal schedule.
It was a pretty odd day in MLB yesterday. Almost nothing hot stove related was a happening so I excised that section this morning.
Today, though, is Rule 5 Draft Protection Deadline Day. Teams have to declare their 40-man rosters by 8PM tonight in order to protect those guys who are eligible to be lifted off the franchise by rather arcane rules.
