pitching today and Saturday.

They have sure worked out better than the Giles brothers. I remember discussing the merits of EGon in spring training. One of the things working against him is his age, most hitters are declining by age 30 with their best years between 24 and 26. Now I’m not one to say a guy’s too old to play, but with EGon his numbers are so good in the minors that for multiple teams to see those numbers and decide that he can’t help him at the major league level throws up a bunch of red flags. That, and the fact he played in A and AA for a bit last year after a couple of years playing well in AAA. I don’t think I’ll ever understand why the Cardinals thought he couldn’t help them at 2B last year unless by a statistical glitch he was left out of their minor league reports. Whatever the reason I’m glad he’s providing a solid #2 hitter and some decent 2B. Iguchi was playing well, but I’ll be fine with EGon for the rest of year if need be. Iguchi can be a late inning defensive replacement and Sunday starter.

After spending the morning over at the US Open, watching Peavy and boys kick some Dodger ass was just priceless and well worth the drive from LA…but I digress

As I was getting a beer at one of the beer stands on field level, I see this guy sporting a TERMEL SLEDGE authentic jersey…knowing how popular the T man is with all you GLBers I wish I had my camera at the moment to share the comedy

Now let’s get these Indians!

tell me I looked like Justin Huber yesterday.

“I’ve been getting that alot recently”

Casting their version of “Lost in Translation,” a movie abut Westerners who form a bond in Tokyo, the Padres were without Bill Murray, the movie’s protagonist and a baseball fan who introduced Padres players at a home game a few years ago. But they had Peavy, who alone tends to spell doom for the Dodgers.

Mr. Editor, this is a stupid paragraph and has nothing to do with the story.

weren’t we supposed to get Headlified for the AL swing? has anyone heard anything?
