Well, the bad news about Corbin Burnes certainly puts a damper on the D-backs season. The biggest signing in franchise history? Forget about it until the second half of 2026, and who knows how effective he will be when he returns. But the season will go on regardless, and the Diamondbacks will seek to build on a four-game winning streak which has seen them climb back up to .500. I may never get to come home again.
I am now up in the North of Scotland, and in the family home. It’s about 50 yards from where the picture today was taken. Lovely to see my Dad and spent the evening at a school reunion, reconnecting with people I haven’t seen since [REDACTED]. Tomorrow, lunch with the sister, and go to see her Clydesdale horse. Y’know, Scottish things.
