Nothing too special at this point, we do have a pitcher named Perez that 
looks promising.

They're mediocre (again) this year.  Being a Red Sox fan is generally 
painful, with a few moments of maximum pleasure in the last couple of 
decades.  I'm still a fan though, no matter what.  Looks like the 
Yankees are running away with things this year in the AL East.

Retired Navy.  Did my last tour here, and stayed.  Been here 20 years 
now and love the place.  We even have a pro (A-level) hockey team here, 
which I'm a season ticket holder for.  ;-)

I think I saw that you were from the Seattle area.  Did a 6-year tour 
there on a ship, and loved it.  Went to many a Mariners game there, both 
in the KingDome and the new place.  Was there when they imploded the 
KingDome and that was pretty interesting.  The Mariners were actually 
good for a while when I was there.  :-)
