Sometimes I hate the road with it the only life I know

But I'm living with life that I chose

So I'll live out my life from the road

Give me life on the road

Good morning and welcome to episode 81 of Effectively Wild

The Daily Podcast from Baseball Prospectus presented by the Play Index of baseballreffence.com

And our Patreon supporters. I am Ben Lembert of 538

joined by Sam Miller baseball prospectus, hello, howdy

Washington DC, inhabitants. I am your neighbor today. I am in the city. I am going to an event this evening at 630

at Bus Boys and Poets on 5th Street, Northwest. I'll be there with Barry's for Luga

and we'll be doing a little moderated discussion and then a Q&A and then a book signing.

So come see us, come talk to us. And I know it's Bryce Harper, Bobblehead Knight

and I know it's Max Scherzer versus Jordan Zimmerman

and that's probably a bigger draw than I am and that Barry is

but hopefully you'll have fun. Not everyone can get a Bryce Harper, Bobblehead

and everyone can come see me. And tomorrow in New York I'll be at the Berguino

baseball clubhouse on East 11th Street at 7pm and Sam on the other side of the country

will be at Book Passage in San Francisco at the Ferry Building at 6pm

and you can find those details by googling or by going to our website

the only rule is it has to work.com and clicking on the event tab.

Anything you want to discuss before we get to emails?

I think I do want to say one thing.
