That should be Lithium CD single. Curmudgeon is the b-side!
I remember mailing a SASE to the Smashing Pumpkins' Chicago fanclub HQ to obtain a Siamese Dream lyric sheet

I still have it

Nirvana's Curmudgeon CD single release has revelatory. It had the complete lyrics to Nevermind

The hardest ones for me to hear were always the mumbled verses to In Bloom

Remembering that time Kent Tekulve 👓 showed up on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and gave the best definition of baseball.

Met hometown hero Ernie Clement today, and as my son got his autograph on a baseball Ernie fielded in a game last year we were photographed by the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Ernie is officially a super nice guy, btw. www.democratandchronicle.com/picture-gall...

I wrote broadly about dynasty baseball team-building strategy and the value of taking an "outside view" while assembling a fake roster and farm system.

The Virtues Of Taking An ‘Outside View’ In Dynasty Baseball Leagues

One additional "outside view" that I am watching:

The success of two-way college players once they focus "one way" on pitching as pros

Spencer Schwellenbach
Cade Horton
Nolan McLean
Payton Tolle

Paul Skenes is spiritually similar. He dropped hitting one year before turning pro

Used to be an edge in our league, but now most managers read it, so you need it just to keep up.

Baseball Forecaster season is upon us!

Impressive. There can't be many players who have triple-dipped in Japan, Korea and Taiwan.
Remember José Núñez? I barely did. He pitched for Toronto from 1987–89 and for the Cubs in 1990, winning nine games. But also…

🇺🇸 Minor Leagues (1984–92, 63 W)
🇹🇼 Taiwan (1993–95, 56 W)
🇩🇴 LIDOM (1984–2007, 36 W)
🇯🇵 Japan (1996–97, 7 W)
🇰🇷 KBO (2001, 2 W)
🇨🇦 Indie (2001, 2 W)
🇲🇽 Mexico (2005, 2 W)
