My daughter Rachel launches her book tour at The Raven bookstore in Lawrence at 7:00 on Tuesday, May 13. I'll be there with her; come by if you are around here. Her new book is "Whack Job: A History of Axe Murder", St. Martin's Press.

Modern research tools are absolutely fantastic, and the researchers who are good at using them--which I am not--are fantastic. Just for the halibut I asked my computer where Richie Ashburn went to high school. Took it about 3 seconds, but it responded with where AND when.

Reminder: I will be at The Raven Bookstore in Lawrence at 7:00 this evening to help my daughter Rachel kick off her book tour for "Whack Job." Rachel was on KPR (KCPR?) this morning. . .you may have heard her.

Teams in two-team cities should trade parks once a year just for kicks. White Sox play a series in Wiggley, Mets play a series in Janqui, Dodgers play a series in Anaheim. Giants not required to trek to Sacramento.

Suppose you are the Red Sox GM, but you only get ONE move. What would you do: Swap Dobbins for Houck in the rotation, call up Mayer, call up Anthony and put him at 1st, or make changes to the field staff?

I wonder if the admin suit over birthright citizenship isn't a ploy, framing the question so that they expect to LOSE on the main point, but expect the court to frame its order in language that incidentally limits the ability of lower courts to spray around injunctions.

Anybody remember when the Sox drafted a guy named Lars Anderson? Big LH first baseman, nice swing. I remember (Seriously) somebody in Boston's unpaid sports media saying he'd be the first .400 hitter since Ted W. Don't think he ever got an at bat in the majors. Ah, Old Times.
