If you haven’t guessed, I’ve been on the road lately. While it’s great for my real career as a musician, it’s sometimes tough to get consistent WiFi. Hence the five-day gap in minor league reports. Now that I’m somewhere that I can get my beloved WiFi time in, I can catch up on the minor league transactions that I’ve missed.
