any reason he should?

or should .180 guys “with power” always be the chalk choice for pinch hitting?

The only measure of true success in the NFL is the Vince Lombardi trophy. Anything less is a rationalization.

I guess you're right

What was the Yanks offer for Soria?

And, did Will call it or not? Wow, the Twins might not score 5 but they certainly put it away. The Royals are so shitty.

GREAT NEWS?

Listening to Denny in the 9th – he said Maier was in the on-deck circle to PH for Guillen if Butler reached. Since Guillen would have represented the go-ahead run, does this mean he has been traded?

PLEASE?

I like the optimism, though.

Been busy at work – somehow I missed that in the 8th.

Gotta learn to multitask better (like a woman)

I don't believe Denny ever mentioned it in the 8th inning.

She thinks she missed the train to Mars; she's out back counting stars.

Thanks

Maybe I can multitask after all!
