Blogfather Takes Another Shot — At Opening Day Roster

Oscar Wilde noted, “To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.” perhaps the same can be said getting shot in the left arm every time the calendar turns to the 20th of the month. Luckily, I won’t need another dose of the vaccine on April 20th, which is good because this morning my toes don’t ache but everything above them does and my temperature of 99.2 is reaching Trevor Rosenthal good fastball levels. (My fever also has a high spin rate, so look out.)

So if I say anything stupid, you can chalk it up to delirium instead of just the usual lack of intelligence.
