while i like the leadoff switch

why is blalock above cruz again? or was it my imagination that cruz was hitting 5th.

Doubt...

it was the “chat session”, but it’s a step in the right direction.

Still no Board Game though.

Yep...

probably a soar pinky or something very serious though.

I say for every game Board Game misses in the last 2 weeks because of injury MY should get to go up to him and kick him square in the balls and say “all you have to do is fucking DH”.

Naw, it's not the chat session

It’s the presence of Boggs in the lineup that gives RW another supposed “speed factor” to put up there.

My question is why the F do I have to watch Laird catch – AGAIN???

Nice to have you back, bud.

Mr. Blake is a tough little shit! Eight weeks have gone by, he is recovering from his esophagial surgery, is back on an oscillating vent, and hopes to move up to a C-Pap soon, and start drinking milk.

Thanks for asking, sir.
