It's good to read that you are not fretting this Monday, sir.


Hopefully the Yankees are set on cruise control.

Oh, I'm fretting.

Wonder what kind of horrors the Braves have in store for THIS Monday.

4 game series with the Padres, than a big series against Pittsburgh.
Hoping for 6-1.

Shields is supposed to start on the 31st. If he's still a member of the Rays at that time, that is.

I don't think i'm exaggerating when I say this could be the most important start of Ricky Romero's career tonight in Seattle. Some analysts in Toronto are even saying that Romero is suffering from Steve Blass Disease. (Former Pirates pitcher who started off great in his career than completely fell apart and was out of baseball after 5-6 years) John Farrell seems to think 90% of Romero's issues are mental and they've been concentrating on that aspect.

I just hope for his sake that he does well as I like Romero. He's a guy that doesn't shy away from the leadership role and immediately filled that gap in the starting rotation when Halladay left. He has always been there for the media after good games and bad so I really hope he can figure all this out.

I guess we'll know by 1 AM tonight.

Kendrys Morales homered from both sides of the plate in the 6th inning. Quite curious to know how many times that's happened before.

Those are two names I never thought would do that in one inning in a game.

Fascinating stuff there.

Big win for the Halos over Texas tonight.

Mike Trout 2 for 4, 4 RBI and HR #17

Kendrys Morales homers from from each side of the plate in the same inning, the second being a grand salami.

Getting a win in Texas in a game that Santana starts is huge.

Braves finally win on a Monday!
