I'm at work myself and checking in periodically.  The updates are very much appreciated.

Go Nationals!  I'll be at tomorrow's game.

Well, it's more fun than captioning a 1980 U.S. Open tennis match!

I've got tickets for San Francisco on the 22nd.  Lord only knows whether I will be taking pictures of Barry Bonds that night.   :wink:

I'm feeling the peace tonight.  Just assume they're going to lose and enjoy the game for what it is.

Seriously, if anyone can think of a good reason NOT to walk him in this situation, I'm all ears.

well that worked out ok this time...but you are playing with fire with Andruw behind the plate...more often than not: you get burned.

Alright, Esteban's coming up to bat.  I see a rally-sparking hit here.

I view pitching to Andruw Jones like cheating on HOV.  You get away with it sometimes..but when you get caught - you're screwed.

Another day, another blown rally.  Have any of our mid-season pickups been worth the plane tickets they flew in on?

If we only had a "singles and doubles" hitter on the roster!  Oh wait, we do.  His name is Rick Short.

God, if this team had players who just "settled" for singles with RISP, we'd be in first place.
