Thanks for frustrated Dad post, John B. The hell with that magnificent Italian sunset, what’s the rotation!!!! Classic Len.
For us it is an updated Spahn and Sain and pray for rain…… Johnson and Mussina, got no one in-between-a!!!! How about some others, guys?

Just spoke to my Dad in Italy where they are having a very nice time. They’re are on the Amalfi Coast in Ravello right now.
Despite the beauty of Italy, I knew what was coming. In a frustrated and aggravated voice my father said, “Can you tell me what happened in the damn [...]

As I told Mike T. over the phone: Two guys that came immediately to mind were Claussen and Eric Milton. I’d have to think a little longer to come up with more…..

Johnson
Mussina
Redding?
May?
Graman?
Does Hughes come up?
Ouch.

I am sure you all have heard it, but a guy like Melky reminds me of Casey Stengel’s classsic line when asked about the ability of his Met back-up catcher Greg Goosen. “We’ve got a 20 year-old player here and in ten years he has a chance to be 30.” And that’s [...]

That’s what I’m talking about! Nice win – especially the A-Bomb off of Schilling. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. What a gutty victory last night – reminds you of the recent past.
Mussina: This is where stats don’t tell the story. He gives up 4 runs in the first. [...]

Newsday is reporting a torn rotator. Gone for at least a year. Oy vey!

Apparently, the Sox are working hard to aquire Alfonso Soriano from the Rangers.
