Meet the sass:

We here at “here for the sass” (dawn doesn’t like capitalized names. It’s a little bit of e.e. cummings in her) thought we’d take a moment to introduce ourselves. Just a little glimpse into the mechanics behind the team.

beth: beth sass is joining here for the sass in her first year with the team. Well, that’s no surprise since it’s the first year we’ve had a team. beth is excited about her role as co-owner/manager. “I like that our team has so much personality. I mean, we have a pink and purple locker room! Well, and some aqua highlights.” beth looks forward to the upcoming season for many reasons, among them, her hopes that a certain DL pitcher will be able to make it back up and spend some quality time with her. beth would like to thank wee sister and darcy for their continued support of her love of the game, and also throw a little shout out to michael cuddyer: “michael, I love you, you know that, but there just wasn’t a place for you on our team! Kisses!”

dawn: dawn sass is excited about being co-owner/manager as well. “I don’t really have to do anything, beth does all the hard work, the lineups, etc, and I just get the glory. Plus, I get to hang out with baseball players! Even if one of them is my ex!” Maybe we’ll all go to McDonalds together this season. I bet Jen would like a happy meal!” dawn would like to recognize her “lawyer” for standing by her through the early season scandals, and her mother, and of course, beth.

rachel: rachel braeiou is thrilled to be a member of the clubhouse staff. She has never before worked in a clubhouse as a manager, or really at all. She is grateful to beth and dawn for giving her the opportunity to be the boss, despite her zero clubhouse experience. “I used to work in a hotel, so I’m all over the towels and stuff. It’s not that different.” rachel wishes to thank her father, and wants to make sure that everyone knows she does NOT thank her sister, S.

bobbi: bobbi mijares is the resident photographer; you can thank her for the fantastic locker room picture. Bobbi became interested in photography at a young age, when she discovered her innate ability to capture things on film, and make them look real even if they weren’t. bobbi would like to thank her mother, her brother, and that baseball player with the same last name.

r. johnson: ron is in his first year, like everyone else on the here for the sass beat. He has a degree in journalism from the University of something. Ron’s scariest experience so far this year has been seeing r. johnson on the posted lineups, and thinking he was being called in to pitch or run around in left field. ron was hard to pin down, so we don’t know who he’d like to thank.
