So apparently I should be excited it’s Magic Round. Just like in 2019 my team is playing a ‘home’ game in Brisbane this weekend, as are I think about five other teams who did so in 2019. How does that happen? Is that the magic? Fans of those teams see an opportunity to attend a […]

Myles Straw grew up a big Tampa Bay Rays fan and has been to hundreds of games at Tropicana Field. Much for that reason, he’s more than a little familiar with Brandon Guyer.

The bulk of his plunkings came in a Rays uniform.
When I talked to Straw this past Wednesday, he had played in 120 big-league games, all with the Houston Astros. He had never been hit by a pitch.
