It’s official: I concluded after catching a replay of some of Wednesday night’s Mets-Astros game (mmmm . . . game) that the Astros’ spring uniforms with the red jerseys are, incredibly, even uglier than the Mets’ spring uniforms with the orange jerseys, the sole purpose of which appears to be to humiliate guys who come into camp overweight.
(By the way: yes, I know the blog’s been a bit lean on the baseball content lately. I’ve been running behind on getting the latest Established Win Shares post together, and maybe it’s just me, but there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot of baseball news to write about since the A-Rod trade, other than the steroid issue and the usual spring training blather. But I’ll be back in gear in another week or two, especially after my rotisserie draft on March 21.)
