FMJRA 2.0: Shadows Of The Night

The Senators traded starting pitcher Larry Dierker and newly acquired center fielder Pat Kelly to the Phillies for center fielder Willie Mays and starter Pat Dobson, mainly with an eye toward next season (1973) when Dierker is going to be chopped liver (along with Mays) but we’ll have two decent center fielders anyway and Jarvis will pitch a lot better in RFK than he did historically in the Launching Pad and Yankees Stadium. With the new additions we played .400 ball this week against the A’s and Red Sox, but all the games were close this time. Not a single blowout. Plus, the two games we won were in extra innings, which says nice things about our bullpen.

As for our musical theme this week, is there a red-blooded American male who didn’t have at least a short-term crush on Pat Benatar in the 80s?
Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse delendam.

First in war, first in peace, and (still) last in the American League.
