Hopefully it’s understood that I wasn’t defending it. Most times, I don’t find those maps a useful tool because they seemingly change often based on a model run, and usually so late that they are a model run behind.
Just got a text from nephew.
”$15 million for a 41 year old pitcher with a 4.19 era last year?
I’d rather Mike Elias take a suitcase of 15 million and light it on fire in center field.”
I had a half pour. Really good! @Scraffhas a more discerning pallet but he liked the taste that he had. Both of us love the bourbon barrel Munich wine, Rhineland.
It would be a blast to have a beer geek meet up here. Such good beers!
Cool that you still do the forecast! And yes, I definitely shuck and do oysters raw. Built a little oyster board for just that. The nice thing about buying them from a place like JJ's is getting the nice salty Massachusetts and Canadian oysters. Usually about a hundred bucks for a 100 count. Chesapeake wild and even the local farm raised are a little bit cheaper. Still darn good though.
