So you face in a dirty yoke

Didn't get me high, didn't make me love

Didn't love and he should let him know

Hello and welcome to episode 1785

In the effectively wild, a fancraft spaceball pod cast brought to you by our Patreon supporters

I'm Meg Raleigh, a fancrafts fan and joined as always by Ben Lindbergh of the Ringer

Done how are you?

I'm under stimulated by these thought-use

Do you remember some time ago, some years ago, I was somewhat facetiously suggested that maybe all offseason activity should be kept under wraps

Until pictures and catchers report to spring training

And we could just all together we would find out who went where and who's on what team now

And it would be this glorious day where I'll just surprise to see where everyone signed and where everyone was traded

And that was a facetious suggestion but I retract even that I think having been faced with the equivalent of that even just for a couple weeks here

I don't want to wish that on anyone certainly who has to cover baseball and figure out ways to do that

But anyone who just has their interest jogged by baseball like I've been sort of fascinated in a gallows humor kind of way

Looking to see how people are filling their websites these days including fan graphs you're doing a great job

Thank you

Everyone else at MLB.com of course cannot mention current players or has decided that it will not mention current players

And so I don't want to say they're scraping the barrel but they're getting creative when it comes to their baseball coverage

There's a lot of like here's what teams might do after the lockout ends and where might this guy go?

What might this team do or I've seen people like reporting old transactions that didn't happen but almost it
