Something about friarhood articles

In each one, I find something that’s misrepresented and I can’t go on.

This time it was saying that Everth, a single-A minor leaguer, would’ve been blocked by Tulowitski, as if Everth were the next one in line.

Is it just me,

or does Jed tak more with the Boston media than the San Diego media?

If ...

the FRIARS have no choice and end up having to trade Adrian away, I hope it’s to any other city.

Just not Boston please.

Toronto needs a first baseman, so does Baltimore. let Adrian DH for the Yankees, or spend his career on the Mets DL, anything … just no friggin Boston.
