Cubs drop to a wonderous 18-28
Marlins rise, yet are still somehow behind us after a sweep, at 14-31

POTG: 3B A-Ram (3B, 2 RBI = points for getting a hit with men on base)

Runner Up: 2B Todd Walker (2 H, R), C Michael Barrett (2 H, R)

See? This is the kinda of sucking I’m bored with!

SUPER NOVA EXPLODES! That’s what I’m talking about.

Two whole walks (and 1 HBP) – but I’m thinking we should only get partial credit because Mabry’s obviously given up on the “hitting” part of hitting and the league somehow hasn’t caught on to it yet. Live the high life while you can, John! Can you believe they’re last in taking walks and first in giving them? A shocking turn of events. Maybe someone who gets paid to write about these things should, I don’t know, bring it up? Although I appreciate the Dusty quotes on how Tony Womack might make an awesome addition to our team.

Wood may be hurt, suspensions may not be announced till Friday, things are really going just beautifully.

This sucked, but in a morbid way, I do appreciate finding different ways to lose, because the “blowout over by the 4th” way of things was getting a little old.

Dempster hasn’t been as sharp this season. I don’t know if it’s usage, age, regression back to the mean, distraction over stupid radio show things, or what, but I hope he can turn it around – only because he’s an easy piece to trade off.

Good to see Barrett getting in his hits while he still can. How does the NBA figure out these suspensions in 1 day and it takes baseball half a week?

Wood looked like Wood’s expected to look. I guess the real story is how he’s feeling today, and we won’t find that out till later. That HR he gave up to Cabera was pretty awful; a classic stupid pitch because he was angry about the last call. That, I don’t quite appreciate.

ONE WALK! This sorta giving me a graph idea, but I don’t know if I’ll get around to doing it.
