As it has about every other day for the last several weeks, it happened again this Friday morning at my fitness joint. A fellow asked, “Can the Cards beat Duke?” I replied as bluntly as I have all the previous times. “We don’t play Duke. We play Stanford.” Don’t rush it, fans, those Blue Devils […]

Back in October, I took a look at Paul Toboni’s history of drafts with the Boston Red Sox in hopes of finding a clear trend in his draft philosophy.
