Shouldn’t he be covering the Mets’ perpetual underachieving or the Yanks’ enormous payroll and lack of success?

I’m pretty sure I’ve been saying this whole time that Moss needs to be playing everyday to see if he’s going to be part of the future, but once again, you and cocktails just hear (or read) what you want to and turn my posts into some kind of hate rant against Moss. Yes, his approach at the plate right now is terrible. If ya’ll cant see that (or won’t admit it), then I’m sorry. Can’t help you there. It’s becoming increasingly obvious, though, that Moss isn’t going to be our everyday RF in the future. But hey, you and cocktails are two very mature guys, so I’m sure ya’ll can see that.
