For 25-plus years, I have been fortunate enough to realize my childhood dream of covering baseball on a daily basis. Now I'm ready to take on new challenges (to be determined later). My last day at @nypostsports will be Feb. 28. Thanks to everyone here for the support and fun.

If I had to announce, "The #Yankees will go 97-65” in Spanish to a Spanish-speaking audience, I might opt for an interpreter, no matter how well I understood the language (which, for accuracy’s sake, is nowhere as well as I should), and hope I wouldn’t be judged for that.
