On Saturday and Sunday I had a total of five starters going. After getting through the weekend with Gavin Floyd, Ben Sheets, Joe Saunders, Oliver Perez and Scott Baker combining for a 2.56 ERA, I had zero wins to show for it.

It started off as a great week. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday I was about as calm as I’ve been in years. I slept well and greeted everyone with a smile. Could it be a coincidence that there were no baseball games during this time?

Thursday rolls around and I’m immediately shoved back into a depressed state, swearing at random strangers and waking up at 3 a.m. in a cold sweat. Baseball is most definitely back.
