All the snarky little baseball nerds who rip Boras’ schtick need a little perspective
He’s fun. It’s stupid but fun.
No other game has anyone even a fraction as entertaining. Transactions are essentially, terminally boring.
We need more appreciation of clowns and goofs, not less

It’s really odd that MLB waits to announce major awards winners until a random Weds. evening two weeks after the WS, when the omnivorous casual fan has been pulled to NFL and NBA
Trying to get a November socials blip? Tradition?
Why not capitalize on eyeballs and announce on a WS off day

A prematurely chunky infielder with a good hit tool, less power than you think, and catcher speed?
