The day has finally arrived.
Baseball’s requiem.
Trade deadline is here.
That final push, emotions implode.
Friendships capsize, an old veteran on his last hurrah.
Tears everywhere, new stadia to play in.
Clubs rebuild, sacrificial lambs manifest
The ole ballyard to have new blood playing.
Teams stock up for the future.
A promising new starting pitcher, a stellar outfielder.
Fans get attached and afraid to let go.
Newer ballparks, architectural wonders.
Finally up to the Major Leagues.
As they say, “Root for the home team.”
The players’ progress is paramount.
it’ll come and go, a new awakening envelops.
