Who's your Padre?: Cliff Floyd is here, so now what? ...
As for Floyd, his knee, the one that needed draining last month, is playable. There is still pain there but it's not anything that will prevent him from swinging the bat or turning on a ball. He's dealing with it and likely will for a while. -

Bullets, eh?
Tricky. Tricky and effective.
I think the answer to Sullivan’s question is “not without steroids.” If he doesn’t like that answer, I’m pretty sure Albert Belle had a few unbelievable seasons while scaring the rest of his team into hitting like children. His 1998 White Sox team had 3 people hit more than 20 HRs. Thomas had 29 (.265), Robin Ventura hit 21 (.263) and Belle his 49 (.328).

I can't wait until SB Nation

Not really
I thought that it was important to have a real name (to be a part of the legitimate media), but I wanted readers who haven’t been around this offseason to recognize me by the username when they got back. They do the same thing at Blogging The Boys, but with full names. We’re not there yet, but one day.

Actually, I think they're practicing for the annual

Bud looks smitten, doesn't he?
"Get on board early," Black said, alluding to, what he feels, is a crop of up-and-coming players.

I like 'Around The Mission'
but you shouldn’t have to do this, Mr. box. You have enough responsibilities as it is; WG needs to remove the wadded panties, shake the sand outta the ol’ vag and revive SLPiH.
