Unfortunately, the Yankees caught one of the worst years of that cicada infestation in 2003. Recently, the Marlins made the playoffs in the COVID-shortened 2020 season, and then somewhat […]
Despite a dramatic midseason battle for first, the NL East was fairly clear cut for most of last season. At the end of May, the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets were tied in a dead-heat, and the Miami Marlins, Atlanta Braves, and Washington Nationals had all started a downward trend out of contention. By […]

Was it as simple as you were living nearby? I grew up on the Space Coast, just 2 hours away from Tampa and seemingly 3 from St. Petersburg, in a family that stayed loyal to the Braves over the Marlins over the years — but I was the perfect age to become a Rays fan, […]
