You can try not to do it. Maybe you’ll even succeed.

You’re better at this than me.

I can’t hold back. I can’t not react. I can’t not think about what I see, even if I fully know how much is left of a long marathon. Games were played this weekend. They count just the same as games in July, August and September. The Phillies didn’t look good. In some areas, it was bad.

So allow me to list some overreactions that I’m thinking about this morning after the season opening series vs. Texas.
