Cup of Coffee: March 19, 2024

A good decision by the Giants, a bad decision by the Giants, good news for Ohtani, pitcher injuries, our old friend Trevor, candy law, SI, a gambling addiction, and the other Dublin

Good morning!

Today we look at the Giants’ seemingly pretty good decision to sign Blake Snell and their pretty curious decision to let their popular and groundbreaking PA announcer go. There is some good news on the Shohei Ohtani elbow recovery front. The Astros are in even bigger need of an arm today than they were before. Oh, and our old friend Trevor has found himself a job pitching for a team that finished in first place last year! It’s not in this country, however, so I guess he’s no yet back to where he feels entitled to be. Alas.

In Other Stuff, I spend what is probably too much time thinking about candy law, a venerable media brand gets a stay of execution, we look at a serious gambling addiction that did some serious damage, and “the other Dublin” campaign actually worked. I’ll be damned.
