I'm more worried about another website that had been quoted and is generally much higher quality writing.
BP? only one truly behind paywall I've seen anything from in my first week.
No. The Athletic.
Yeah, I try to refrain from doing that one unless it is highly compelling.

I appreciate it as I don't subscribe. There are so many different subscriptions, I have to limit what I subscribe to. I had a free subscription for a week. They probably have the best writers in Sports.

I agree with all that except I don't think copying a few sentences to discuss something is a problem.

Yep, I will do that going forward with the Athletic but will continue to post the entire Seattle Times here including classified ads and obits.

Julio only 1-12 in the AFL. I think I might have waited until next fall.

This is what I love about Julio. Even when he is struggling (in this case vs. top prospect pitching) he is doing good things. Only hitting .188 but his three walks give him a .333 OBP and he only has 2 Ks.

You need to convince the wife to make a ST trip this Spring. Hang out on one of the 8 minor league practice fields and rub elbows with Julio, JK and Gilbert. Freakin baseball mecca.

We're doing a Hawaii trip and a big family reunion. Don't know if there will be time and money for Spring training. Also want to wait a few years so the kids are not so much of a hassle.
