Ok convince me Drake Maye isn’t Mac Jones 2.0. Because I’m still not convinced.

Know what a fun #redsox story would be? I’d love to know what catchers and hitters mumble to each other in the few seconds of an ABS challenge. Are they debating the call? @timbhealey.bsky.social @chadfinn.bsky.social @alexspeier.bsky.social

Jarren Duran needs a base stealing coach -- he needs Ricky or Dave Roberts (!) to give him tips. The dude is so fast, yet not a good base stealer. That means he does'nt know how to get a good lead & reach his top speed. He should be better at stealing, @chadfinn.bsky.social @alexspeier.bsky.social

Has a baseball pitcher ever NOT made the All Star team and then won the Cy Young the same season? That could be #RedSox Sonny Gray. @chadfinn.bsky.social @alexspeier.bsky.social

Shout out to @dougmost.bsky.social whose very good "Launching Liberty" I've recently finished. Doug, as one with a decade's experience in the shipyard I found your story of the Liberty ships program very well told. Thanks, too, for bringing life to folks like Jerry Land & W.F. Gibbs. Well done!

Great piece by Leslie Stahl and @60minutes.bsky.social on the shipbuilding crisis. My book Launching Liberty tells the story of the greatest emergency shipbuilding program in US history. 13,000 ships in for years. It was #WorldWarII The Liberty ships were the linchpin of the program. a.co/d/03kkV4cR

The #NBA #CadeCunningham news stinks, but my perspective on this has changed @chadfinn.bsky.social. I used to think when a team lost its star, it meant they were toast, done! After seeing the #Celtics respond w/o Tatum, I have less sympathy. Role players, coaches, have to step up. It can be done.

One of @bostonu.bsky.social proudest accomplishments, in my humble view, is becoming a destination for first-generation students, a place that welcomes, embraces & lifts them up. The Newbury Center at Boston University is life-changing for students, and I wrote about it: www.bu.edu/articles/202...
