Centerfield

Good job finding a Majewski picture with a Reds hat.

Good. Let it rain for 2 hours until I can get home to watch it.

Pierre grounds out. We're official.

That'll do. Whatever works.

Floyd: DON'T LEAVE ME OFF THE COVER!!!

Yay Wright!!!! Tie game.

Gotta get into that Cub bullpen. Work Maddux.

The same time Roger made the jump to shortstop. Is that Angel Pagan in leftfield? Wasn't he once a Cyclone?

Pedro's missing another start? That's not a good sign.

I'm working friday. Saturday I have plans. Meaning I get no baseball until Sunday. I might die.

Oliver 2 Maine 1 Reyes 1

I hate that Floyd is not on that cover.

I see. Makes sense.

Trachsel 3 LoDuca 2 Castro 2 Wright 2 Reyes 1

Beltran 4 Lo Duca 1 Reyes 1 Valentin 1 Feliciano 1 Bradford 1

Yancy, did you intend to leave Beltran out in that Sunday night game against the MFY's? If so, why?

O Hernandez 4 Sanchez 1

Thanks Hillbilly. The little troublemaker cut his finger today. It wasn't too bad, but it was deep enough that I felt a doctor should look at it. Doc says it's fine, no stitches required. We feel like we dodged a bullet there. Hopefully that'll teach him not to slide headfirst into first base.

I'm embarrassed to say how poorly I did. I did, however, know where Vin went to school.

I've been tracking a 10 and a half month old living in Manhattan. He can't walk, run or throw a baseball yet, but he has shown that he can create an incredible amount of drool. We feel that if he keeps up his drool production, he may one day have a spitball comparable to Gaylord Perry's. A bonus, he's a local guy...and a big Mets fan.

It's not that far-fetched. At the outset, there were only two candidates you would have slotted in ahead of Trachs.

Seawolf: "Yet another reason why "professional baseball player" is the best freaking job in the whole world." I'm a lawyer, and it's basically the same thing: Judge: Motion denied. CF: Denied? DENIED?!? You're kidding me right? You're $@#&! kidding me! Judge: Hey, you didn't meet your burden. CF: OH MY GOD. OF COURSE I MET MY BURDEN. LOOK! LOOK AT THESE PAPERS, DID YOU EVEN LOOK AT THESE PAPERS? Judge: I read the papers counsel... CF: Well you didn't read them well enough then! Get help...ask your law clerk...I know your law clerk didn't see it that way.... Law Clerk (moving over): Calm down CF...I didn't get a good look at your papers...I have to go with the Judge's- CF: DIDN'T GET A GOOD LOOK? IS ANYONE $@#&! PAYING ATTENTION OUT HERE? WHAT THE $@#&! AM I EVEN TRYING FOR. YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAND THIS CASE TO THEM. (pulling out wallet) WHY DON'T I JUST SAVE YOU THE TROUBLE AND PAY THEM NOW? Judge: Careful counsel, you're on thin ice... CF: NO!! YOU BE CAREFUL. YOU PAY ATTENTION. YOU CAN START BY GETTING YOUR $@#&! HEAD OUT OF YOUR $@#&! ASS! Judge: That's it, you're gone. You're outta here! Now go home early and take a shower. CF: $@#&! you! (knocks over a stack of papers on the law clerk's desk on the way out) (Meanwhile, my clients find nothing wrong with my behavior. In fact, they are cheering emphatically.)

Caught this on the post-game, I don't know if it's printed anywhere: Reporter: What was Cliff saying to you? (after the HBP) Willie: "OW OW OW"
