No way, two are Sawx fans and two couldn't care less about baseball at all :lol:

Don't let them show up with Sawx gear...WNFF doesn't need that level of embarrassment...we have enough to worry about...  ;)

I clicked on the gamecast on CBS Sportsline's website, saw the line up, and started reading it to my brother.  When I got to de Aza, my brother said, "he's still in the league?" I told him he was only outfielder #12 and that the Nats have had 2 more play since him.

Did we figure out if Robles can play in the post season?   I thought on this board said he couldn't but Dusty was saying something like he wouldn't be playing if they weren't considering him for the playoff roster.

He's amazing.  I'm so glad I had the chance to see him in Auburn and Hagerstown.

FP just confirmed it really was a broken bat triple!

He has to some how tone down his slides. May be hard with his speed but he seems to pop up off the bag about every time :run:

Under the new CBA he can play in the post season because he was in the organization on Sept 1, even if he wasn’t on the 40-Man.

I love how many people on here wanted to trade him away at the deadline.

Thanks. He could be an interesting bench guy.  Does anyone have a feel for his stealing ability?   There's lots of fast guys who can never get the knack for stealing bases.

Robles is fast to get all the way to RF and switch numbers before the catch.

True - and I'd rather see t-shirts with quotes from FP foaming at the mouth.  There would be a great variety
