the bad news is ...

the Ranger pitching staff is a mess.

The good news is we get to face Whiffy .226 3hr 16 rbi .659 ops and
Menchy 4 for his last 25 ... the next 3 games.

There is no status, except for me. Because I am who I am.

I know a couple Jays fans.

They’re pretty laid back and realistic, I’ve found. I guess playing in the AL East where your chances of being a big story is probably pretty slim.

That, and they’re Canadians. I like Canadians. They’re polite.

IE has poor Javascript support and the auto loading uses heavy Javascript. I would stick with Firefox 3 for the best results.

Is it just me, or does Hunter’s fastball look a little flat?

Nervousness

He just looks a little flustered. His fastball usually sits low in the zone more, and he usually gets ahead. This is first start jitters.

Ramirez, who wore No. 24 during his seven-plus seasons in Boston, will wear No. 99 in Los Angeles. Hall of Fame manager Walter Alston wore No. 24 with the Dodgers, and that jersey is retired.

"I don’t know why they gave me 99," he said. "I wanted 34."

No. 34, worn by Fernando Valenzuela in the 1980s, isn’t officially retired, but clubhouse manager Mitch Poole said: "In our hearts, it is, and in the Mexican community. It was 66, then it went to 99 in a matter of minutes. It was all through the agent (Scott Boras) and his staff."
