If you haven’t caught his previous columns in the NYT (I think Al posted a link to an earlier one on Clemens) it's cant miss reading in my opinion for baseball fans. His writing contains a unique mix of ex-MLB player perspective, part Ivy League and part fan. The kind of guy you would love to have beer with in the bleachers and talk about baseball all day. (Most likely just pepper with questions and listen)
Great tie in about his time with the Cubs (curious to know who his AA roommate was?), hitting a curveball and life...great stuff, enjoy and discuss
