Baseball seasons don't get much more forgettable that 2014—with the
possible exception of 2012. As the Red Sox put their embarrassing 71-win season in the rearview mirror, we can only hope that the "even-odd" year mojo continues.
Last-To First-To Last-To First Again? Let's look on the bright side. Our International Editor
Mark Lawrence has sent us photos from Sydney that
prove it's already 2015. So, pop some leftover bubbly from
2013 and look to Opening Day
2015—
just 95 days away. Gone are all the sordid memories of the year past: the
Grady Sizemore tease; the "return" of
Stephen Drew; the
Raiders Of The Lost Offense; the disappointing play of
Will Middlebrooks and
Jackie Bradley, Jr.; two-thirds of
Dustin Pedroia; the departure of
Jon Letser—
all of it gone forever into the dustbin of Red Sox history. Good riddance, 2014—and don't let the cosmic door hit you in the butt on the way out.
