Wasted opportunities. When you get a leadoff walk you have to find a way to turn it into a run. Oliver Perez needed to get the bunt down, but Endy Chavez needed to lay off the high pitch, which he popped up.

The pitch count is there, but is the effectiveness? Perez seems to be pitching just well enough to keep things in check. There is no reason for the Mets not to take advantage of Reyes’ wildness.

Broken Cord: An Anthology of Writing on Alzheimer’s and Dementia

We are looking to raise seed money for an anthology of writing on Alzheimer’s and dementia. The anthology will be the first project from a new small press. All proceeds will go to research and care groups. Contributors who donate $20 or more will get copies of the anthology and a mention on the acknowledgements page. Writers, we are looking for poems, fiction, and essays on dementia and Alzheimer’s. They can be from any perspective — care-givers, family, the person with dementia.
