The 2023 Happy Talk Thread

[Frobby]

I’ve decided we need a thread that’s nothing but sunshine and flowers.  If you see articles that fit the bill, post them here!   Here’s today’s installer from Roch:

That feels good just to say out loud. Enough said.

Can't wait to see Adam Frazier put up his 2021 first half .836 OPS all season!

Lease signed at the All Star break. We pick up Scherzer or Degrom for the pennant run when the Mets and Rangers season turns unbearable. Degrom will be healthiest in years when we get him.

Now back to the regularly scheduled me.

You can just post Roch or Steve Milewski articles for the rest of their MASN careers on this thread.

Gotta be at least 2017 or someone is lying. It’s probably more like 2013 for me in regard to anticipation. Had a lot of fun last year watching this team and it reminded me of 2012 even though not as good a result. This spring reminds me of the following year where people were actually paying attention and excited because of the year before. 
 

Hopefully we’re in for several good seasons that lead to more playoffs and more playoff wins!
