While I was supposed to be productive this morning, I stumbled across a tweet from Jon Tayler, where he talks about hoping that Mike Trout is bad at some really basic and easy things. And the tweet made me unreasonably angry. Not because he had insulted Mike Trout, but because this was the perfect premise for an article, and I would never get to write it because there’s no way in hell Mike Trout would ever be a Ray.
I was angry enough that I felt the need to discuss it in our writers’ room on Slack.
