It was early on in the season when my wife would wonder why, when the Reds were on, I'd be sitting there more interested in watching the Yankees game.

I'm fucking serious, if my shoulder was in better shape I'd walk my ass out there and pitch batting practice to earn a spot. No doubt in my mind I could get 2 outs before giving up 5 runs. Thats the fucking water mark right now.

Fun fact - according to FanGraphs, the Reds pitching staff has 0.2 WAR on the season. The whole entire team.

Basically meaning, they think that you could literally have randomly selected "freely available talent" at pitcher and been exactly as good as they are so far this season. And the Reds are theoretically trying to win. That's... a pretty incredible achievement.

It must not be possible to have a negative WAR?

Random question that I'm not sure that anyone here can answer but: does anyone know the most legit place online or the most legit person online to buy baseball autographs from? My dad has a big birthday coming up and I want to buy him an autographed picture of Ewell Blackwell (his favorite player when he was a kid) as a gift. I obviously doubt there's big business in forged Ewell Blackwell autographs but still I'd like to buy the best one if possible. I haven't bought an autograph since the early 90's so any advice would be appreciated.
