Cup of Coffee: April 1, 2024

Recaps, injuries, Special Agent Hoskins, Oakland plays hardball, bad team social media, billionaire arrogance, Boeing's bad culture, and ink

Good morning!

Today, in addition to the recaps, we talk about baseball possibly rising from the dead, we have some injury updates, we check in on the undercover mission of Special Agent Hoskins, we note how the city of Oakland is playing hardball with the A’s on a lease extension, we tally up the international ballplayers on MLB rosters to start the season, and we note a regrettable thing team social media accounts are doing which I hope they’ll stop doing.

In Other Stuff, we marvel at the arrogance and entitlement of a billionaire owner, we read an important story about the failure of safety culture at Boeing, and I share some personal news, the sort of which I never figured I’d share. But don’t worry, it’s not bad personal news. To some of you, I expect, it’s not good, but if that’s the case that’s your problem, not mine.
