This morning at the coffee shop I overheard a mother say to her teenaged daughter: “To me, it is bloated, uneven, chilling, exasperating, beautiful, inspiring, deadly and confusing.”
To which the daughter hastened to add: “Most importantly, mother, it is a gauntlet thrown down and a challenge issued. A challenge to think, a challenge to engage and to argue.”
I shouldn’t interrupt. But I do.
“Excuse me, ladies, for butting in,” I said. “But clearly you are faithful followers of the Dan Yates website. Two of his legion of readers.”
There was a pause. An awkward silence.
“We most certainly are not,” the mother said.
To which the daughter hastened to add: “For your information, sir, we were merely reiterating Charlotte Higgins’ opinion of Plato’s Republic. Ever heard of it?”
“Of course I’ve heard of it,” I said. “It’s universally known.”
Then I went back to my Western Producer.
I shouldn’t ignore people. But I do.

But I’m assuming the signing of Guerrero is an attempt to light a fire under Jose Bautista who is on pace to match the numbers Guerrero put up in Baltimore last season.
