Cup of Coffee: December 15, 2023

Introducing Ohtani and Lee, a trade is almost done, a couple of signings, a minor league rebrand, a retirement, Neanderthal genes, a book for serious enthusiasts, and life is comin' at me fast

Good morning!

We said hello to Shohei Ohtani and Jung Hoo Lee in their new uniforms yesterday and the former answered a couple of burning questions. There were a couple of signings, a trade that has been brewing for a few days is almost complete but it has a twist to it, and a guy many of you might’ve thought was already retired is gonna play one more year.

In Other Stuff we look at old school blogging style, Neanderthal genes, and a book clearly designed for fetishists, and life comes at your dear newsletter writer extremely fast.
