Nothing too special at this point, we do have a pitcher named Perez that
looks promising.

They're mediocre (again) this year. Being a Red Sox fan is generally
painful, with a few moments of maximum pleasure in the last couple of
decades. I'm still a fan though, no matter what. Looks like the
Yankees are running away with things this year in the AL East.

Retired Navy. Did my last tour here, and stayed. Been here 20 years
now and love the place. We even have a pro (A-level) hockey team here,
which I'm a season ticket holder for. ;-)
I think I saw that you were from the Seattle area. Did a 6-year tour
there on a ship, and loved it. Went to many a Mariners game there, both
in the KingDome and the new place. Was there when they imploded the
KingDome and that was pretty interesting. The Mariners were actually
good for a while when I was there. :-)
... What was the best thing BEFORE sliced bread?
