I didn’t set out to be a baseball writer. I just kind of fell into it. I was sitting in the same spot that you, the reader, occupied back in 2017 and even before. I loved this space from its creation and was a commenter on a regular basis. When its previous writer rode off into the sunset after the 2016 championship, I was just someone who didn’t want to see this feature go away. I honestly thought I was applying a band-aid while a long term solution was identified. Somehow, I find myself starting season number eight as the author of this feature.
