The Thrill of July

By Stuart Shea

I read all the headlines
About the trading deadline–
Who is Pittsburgh-bound?

Brewers, Mets, and Blue Jays
Slumping in the dog days…
Can they turn around?

Hot-shot rookies
Hittin’ cookies–
The ROY debate,

Great pennant races
In fan-packed places…
Isn’t summer great?
