Tuesday Bird Droppings: Where we’re rehashing Manny/Red Sox drama

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

The stage is set. The bright lights are on. The 2018 World Series between the Red Sox and the Dodgers starts tonight in Boston. Who are you pulling for? (Note: that question is a trap. If you answer the Red Sox, you will be forcibly ejected from this website.)

Although these two franchises have both been in existence for well over a century, they haven’t faced each other in a World Series since 1916, when the Dodgers were the Brooklyn Robins. Still, there’s some recent history between these two for the media to latch onto — or, more accurately, there’s recent history between the Red Sox and Manny Machado.
