He Couldn’t Find Anything to Rhyme with Zelig
Jim Kaat makes a poor choice in a rhyming nickname for Nestor Cortes.
Of course, Nestor the Investor doesn’t work that well. Maybe Nestor the Divestor? Nestor the Ingestor?
Six to the Hall
Two veteran committees elect a combined six former players to the Baseball Hall of Fame:
Six baseball legends were elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2022 as part of the institution’s Era Committees election cycle in results announced Sunday night on MLB Network. Bud Fowler and Buck O’Neil were elected from the Early Baseball Era Committee ballot of 10 candidates, while Gil Hodges, Jim Kaat, Minnie Miñoso and Tony Oliva were elected from the 10 Golden Days Era Committee candidates.

Congratulations to all. The election of Buck O’Neil will make many people happy. Former Twins did very well in this election as well. Dick Allen was left out again.
