Mike Scioscia's tragic illness

Smell You Later.

Well, I promised a MSTI announcement today, and here it is: MSTI’s hitting the road. That’s right, no time like the present to do something completely ridiculous, and for me, that means joining a band that needs a bass player and going on a 2.5 week summer tour. (Shameless plug, if you’re anywhere in the east half of the country and you like some poppy rock goodness, the dates are right here). Because, why the hell not?

Of course, they’re not going to pause the baseball season while I’m gone (…they won’t, right?) and while I admit the timing is particularly lousy with the trading deadline coming up, we’ll still keep things going around here. We’ll still have updates from Vin and perhaps some special guests - maybe not as often as we’ve been posting lately, but safe to say if anything major happens, we’ll be here discussing it.

So enjoy Vin’s reign of terror while I’m away, and play nice. More regular posting will resume when I return the first week of August, unless Matt Kemp has been traded to the Mets for Luis Castillo, Jorge Sosa, and a handful of magic beans, in which case I’ll probably have pulled the tour van into a ditch somewhere in Ohio.

Go Dodgers!
