Break Out the Free Agent Jokes: Scooter’s Gettin’ Hitched!
I have actual stuff to do at work today, since I’m blowing this popsicle stand next week and heading home to Atlanta after three long years in Athens (it may be the birthplace of Heap, but this town is not for me), but I’m still going to take time out of my workday to post, […]

“Stuff-Wise”
Now that we’re back in second place, let’s check out the explanations for our loss to the Dodgers last night: Huddy, you’re up first: “I felt like I went out there and pitched as good as I could tonight with the kind of stuff that I had. But Derek came out there and he was […]

Birth Day
So yesterday was Andruw’s birthday, and it was also the birthday of that one poor Marlins reliever who had his entire family sitting behind home plate and watching while he almost singlehandedly blew the game there at the end. I thought something significant might happen when they faced each other, some kind of cosmic event, […]

First Place For Now
I’m so glad I went to all three games this weekend, and not just the miserable home opener. The other two were a blast: my throat’s all sore from screaming, I’m sunburned, and I somehow pulled a muscle in my shoulder, I think from throwing up my arms after Andruw made that catch on Sunday. […]

That’s More Like It
If we looked like clowns on Friday, the Mets looked like amateur clowns yesterday. I guess it’s the wind messing with everybody, but all their errors were still appreciated by the crowd. Especially Shawn Green dropping that fly ball — the right field section actually started chanting “Shawn Green sucks.” I’m not sure if Mets […]

Mystery Solved
I think I figured out why Davies struggles with confidence on the mound: The kid on the left in the back is Davies. Poor Davies; at least he’s kind of cute now. But the best part about this picture: the kid next to him, in the middle? Is Frenchy! Hahahaha. And the kid next to […]

“They Seem Like They’re Annoyed”
We lost to the Cardinals today, but Smoltz was great, Heap went 2-3, and Chipper’s injury sounds pretty minor. Yates somehow managed to give up a home run to Rick Ankiel, of all people, which is probably not a good sign. Frenchy is continuing to hit pretty consistently in these spring training games (he got […]

“Already in Midseason Form”
Now it’s officially baseball season (I know I’ve said this about three times so far this year, but for real this time): Skip is back! He called our game against the Blue Jays today with Pete, and I was grinning like an idiot the entire time. Even if he’d done the whole thing pretty dry, […]

Rock’em Sock’em Braves
Davies and McBride were both shaky on the mound in our game against the Nationals today, but they’re the Nationals, so we still won 10-6. But don’t worry: Davies says “[his] groin felt great!” So we can all rest easy there. McBride, I don’t know. I could feel how tense and uncomfortable he was through […]
